Published on 27 Aug 2014
Cardiff city center has been turned into a high security "prison" with 16 kilometers (10 miles)
of fencing ahead of the NATO conference next week. The almost three-meter tall (9 foot 8 inches)
fencing crosses parks, roads and even rings Cardiff Castle's walls. More than 9,000 officers from
across the UK have been drafted to ensure security at the event which will be attended by 150
heads of state. An additional crew of 10,000 support staff and 2,000 journalists are also expected.
The world leaders will meet on September 4 and 5.

Ukraine crisis: Nato images 'show Russia troops'
http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/77221000/jpg/_77221029_023659940-1.jpg
This satellite image provided by the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe shows what
Nato identifies as Russian self-propelled artillery in Ukraine Continue reading the main story
Nato has released satellite images it says show Russian armed forces inside Ukrainian territory
to help rebels fight government forces.
Ukraine's president held a security council meeting on Thursday over the "sharp aggravation of
the situation". Russia has denied the claims.
Earlier, rebels opened a new front in the south by seizing the coastal town of Novoazovsk.
At least 2,119 people have been killed in four months of fighting.
Amid condemnation from Western powers, the United Nations Security Council has held an
emergency meeting in New York to discuss the crisis.
"Russia has to stop lying and stop fuelling this conflict," the US ambassador to the UN
, Samantha Power, told the council.
Britain's ambassador Sir Mark Lyall Grant said Russia was guilty of "a clear violation of
sovereign Ukrainian territory", adding that the conflict would "no longer exist" without
Russia's direct support for separatists.
Meanwhile Russia's ambassador to the UN, Vitaly Churkin, said the crisis was a "direct
consequence of the reckless policy of Kiev, which is conducting a war against its own people".

Ukrainian forces are being deployed to help defend the southern city of Mariupol
'Significant escalation'
Nato Brigadier General Niko Tak said more than 1,000 Russian troops were operating
inside Ukraine, both supporting the separatists and fighting on their side.
He told the BBC there had been a "significant escalation in the level and sophistication
of Russia's military interference in Ukraine" over the past two weeks.
"[Nato has] detected large quantities of advanced weapons, including air defence systems
, artillery, tanks, and armoured personnel carriers being transferred to separatist forces
in eastern Ukraine," he said.
"Russia is reinforcing and resupplying separatist forces in a blatant attempt to change the
momentum of the fighting, which is currently favouring the Ukrainian military."

Russian ambassador to the EU: Only 10 Russian soldiers in eastern Ukraine
But Russia's ambassador to the European Union, Vladimir Chizhov, said Nato had "never
produced a single piece of evidence" for its accusations.
He said the only Russian soldiers on Ukrainian soil were 10 paratroopers captured earlier this week.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has announced the European Council will discuss taking
further sanctions against Russia during a summit on Saturday.
Other European leaders echoed her sentiments:
British Prime Minister David Cameron warned that if Russia failed to find a political solution
, "she should be in no doubt that there will be further consequences"
Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski called the deployment of Russian troops an "aggression
" and said international action was needed
French President Francois Hollande said it would be "intolerable" if Russian troops were in Ukraine
, and demanded Russia stop sending aid to the rebels.

President Barack Obama refused to label Russia's military action inside eastern Ukraine
as an 'invasion' on Thursday, calling it an 'incursion' despite facing a reporter's specific
action about his choice of words.
Following a conversation with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Obama told reporters
that the two leaders agree 'that Russia is responsible for the violence in eastern
Ukraine. ... Russia has deliberately and repeatedly violated the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine.'
'And the new images of Russian forces inside Ukraine make that plain for the world to
see.'
He insisted that the Russian tanks filmed rumbling through Ukraine on Thursday are
merely 'a continuation of what's been taking place for months now.'
