What Are UN Secretary-General condemns Russian missile attack on Dnipro?

In Ukraine, The Death Toll From A Russian

Missile Strike On An Apartment Building

Is Expected To Rise Past 40 Today Rescue

Workers In SEPRA, Are Still Searching For

29 People In The Rubble, But The Chances Of

Finding Survivors Are Slim In Ukraine

The President Is Calling For Faster

Deliveries Of Heavy Weapons From The

West In The Wake Of The Attack He

Describes It As A War Crime

Covered From The Rubble

Rescuers Say They Have Little Hope Of

Finding Anyone Alive Under This Mess Of

Twisted Concrete

But They Keep Up The Search Anyway

We Are Not Giving Up Hope Of Finding

Anyone Alive

The First Group Is Looking For The Dead

I'll Help With That Too

Those Who Were Rescued Were Rushed To

Hospital

There Are Three People On The Ward

Including The 19-year-old Woman

They Were Admitted With Wounds After The

Explosion

Two Are In Our Ward With Relatively

Severe Conditions Include Barrow Trauma And Head

Trauma

Across The Road From The Apartment Block

Neighbors And Relatives Pay Their

Respects The Dead And Tries To Process

Their Grief

It Could Have Been Any Of Us In That

Place People

Children

This Is A Community Reeling From

Profound Loss

In All Of That One Story Of Hope This

Man's Elderly Mother Was Rescued From

The Building Was Unharmed, Then He Found His

Cat Is A Small Comfort In A Time Of Tragedy

Russia Claims It Had Nothing To Do With

The Strike On The Atone Pro Apartment

Block Instead Blaming Ukrainian Air

Defense Systems, So We Asked For Defense

Analyst Marina Iron From King's College

London For Her Take On That Claim

While It's Quite Difficult To Judge Who

Is Actually Responsible We Know That

Russia Has Launched A Verge Of Missiles

And We Also Know That Ukrainian Air

Defense Systems Have Shot Some Missiles

Down So Right Now Because It Happened So

Recently, There Should Be An Independent

Investigation To Find Out What Actually

It Happened Because Obviously The Russian

The Side, Even If It's Russia's, Fault Will

Try To Deny This While The Ukrainian

The Side Will Try To Point Fingers At Russia

Because As You Said This Would Be A War

Crime And As A Matter Of Fact This

The Battle Is Going On In The Information

Sphere Kind Of Both Sides Trying To

Point Fingers At One Another For Instance

The Ukrainian Presidential Advisor

Alexander Ivanovich First Said That It Was

A Ukrainian

Um Missile That Basically Hits A Russian

Missile And That's Why It Happened And

He Retracted His Statement, So There Is A

A Lot Of Confusion Going On, But Right Now

Um, It's Really Impossible To Tell Who Is

At Hold There

Our Correspondence Joins Us Now From Key

Of Sonia What's The Latest

Will The Search And Rescue Operation Has

Continued Overnight In That South

In The Central City Of Dnipro, There Are

Several People Unaccounted For, But Of

The Course As We Saw In Your Report Hopes

Are Fading Of Fighting Survivors Under

The Rubble After You Know Three Nights

In Sub-zero Temperatures And Of Course

The Death Toll Is Rising Uh By The Hour

Dozens Of People In The Hospital Including

Children We've Also Seen A Huge

The Outpouring Of Help From Villages In And

Around Never Dnipro Um You Know There

Have Been Reports Here In The Media Of

You Know Municipalities Willing To Take

In The Hundreds Of People Who Have Now

Become Homeless There Are Also Reports

That Some Of The Residents Affected Are

Internally Displaced People, You Know

People Who Have Fled From Regions Like

Carson And Kharkiv Have Moved To

Dnipro And I Think For Them This

Experience Is Especially Traumatic

Losing Everything All Over Again And

Ukraine's Deputy Defense Minister Anna

Malay Has Said That The Missiles That

Hit That Building Is A Russian X-22

Ballistic Missile Right After That

In The Attack, We Saw A Statement When Ukraine's

Air Defense Forces Saying They Do Not

Have The Means The Equipment To Detect

Or Shoot Down These Types Of Missiles So

That Has Raised A Lot Of Concerns Here

And You Know Strengthened Calls For

The Rollout Of Advanced Air Defense

Systems Like The Patriot From The US

Sonia, You Ventured Out In The Dark In

The Capital Key Of Where The City

Authorities Have Restricted Public

Lighting With Severe Consequences For

People Out On The Streets, Let's Have A

Look At Your Report

During The Day Despite The War The

Ukrainian Capital Can Look And Feel

Quite Normal

But As Night Falls, Kyiv Slips Into

Almost Darkness

Streetlights Are Off And Many

Crossings Traffic Lights As Well

The Dark Makes It Downright Risky For

Those On The Streets

Bogdan Works For A Food Delivery Service

In Kyiv Taking Orders From Customers

Around The City, Curfew Isn't Until 11 Pm

So Much Of His Work Is In The Inky Talk

Foreign

Work Has Become Much Tougher Because Of

The Lack Of Light

It's Hard To Ride In The Dark And If A

A Person Doesn't Have Reflectors, I Just

Can't See Them, You Have To Be Careful

Because There Could Be People On The

Streets Kids And There Are Potholes And

Open Drains Which You Could Fall Into

More

A Month Ago, Bogdan Had An Accident When

He Hit A Curb In The Dark, He Smashed All

The Reflectors On His Bicycle The

Streets In The Ukrainian Capital Are

Clearly Not Safe At Night And That's

Especially So For Those Navigating The

City On Foot Now The Deputy Head Of

Kyiv's Traffic Police Told Me That Car

Accidents Involving Pedestrians Have

Gone Up By A Whopping 80 Percent Since

Last October, That's When The City Was

Forced To Introduce Rolling Blackouts In,

Response To Russia's Debilitating

Missile And Drone Attacks On Ukraine's

Energy Infrastructure

Everyone Here Has A Story About The

Darkness's Really Dangerous I'm

Wondering How I Can Cross The Road To

On The Other Side, Shall I Go Further And

Look For A Proper Crossing Or Should I

Follow Another Person So We're In A

Group

I Bought A Glow Stick Collar For My Dog

Because I Can't See Him When There's No

Light In The Park It's Very Convenient

It Was Dark At The Crossing Before

People Approached Me And Punched Me In The

Nose And Snatched My Phones From My

Pocket

But Living In A City Shrouded In

Darkness Can Also Have Its Upsides

Center There's A Bit Of Intrigue And

Mystery In The Air, Especially When It's

Closer To The Curfew And There's No One

Around It's Quite Interesting To Ride

Along Dark Empty Streets

And Quite Literally Disappear Into The

Night

And Sonia Is Still With Us Sonia What

Are The Biggest Problems Uh For The City

Well As We Saw In That Report You Know

The Police Here Say That The Biggest

The Problem Is Really Car Drivers Being

Unable To See Pedestrians And Really

Knocking Them Over, Uh We've Had Reports

Of People With Fatality With Serious

Trauma Injuries Head Injuries But Also

Fatalities And The Police Here Have

Started A Campaign Now To Try And

Encourage People To Know Wear

Brighter Jackets Uh And Coats Rather

Then Black Clothes That You Know Where

People With Cars Drivers Could

Actually, See Them, They've Asked Them To

Wear You Know Reflective Elements I've

Spoken To Parents In The City Who Are

Quite Worried About Their Children Going

Out Alone In The Dark In The Park They

Kit Them Out In Reflective Uh Clothing

And You Know The Police Have Also Said

That One Of The Bigger Problems Is That

In Districts Where There Are Frequent

Power Outages The Traffic Lights Don't

Function, So Officers Are Now Being

Trained To Kind Of Manually Uh You Know

Regulate These Crossings At Big Uh

Junctions Are The Other Problem A Little Bit

Is A Crime Now Uh Incidence Of Looting And

Theft Has Gone Up In Certain Tricks

Some Criminals Take Advantage Of

The Dock, But The Police Say You Know

Overall Crime Is Down Since Kiev

Was Forced To Introduce These Blackouts

Last October Sonia In The Key Of Their Thank

You
