government show explosions at an oil depot in russia about 20 miles from the border with ukraine. if this is confirmed, it would be the first attack by ukrainian forces inside russia. and russian forces have continued airstrikes across ukraine, including in kiev, just days after pledging to pull back russian troops. has repeatedly lied about its intentions. so we can only judge russia on its actions, not on its words. now ukrainian authorities say russian troops have left their turnover nuclear nuclear site and gave back control of that nuclear plant. there are reports of russians may have been exposed to high levels of radiation. well, the vacuum waysh ins and heavily damaged ukrainian city of mario pole are planned today after a temporary ceasefire was agreed to by russian and ukrainian officials about 100,000. people are still in mary uphold to cut

off from food and water, unable to leave as constant russian shellings. hits that city. we didn't even expect to be attacked years ago. no one was expecting it. it was such #### i can't express it. now the red cross is preparing to send in a convoy of 45 busses to evacuate the people still trapped there. the russian ruble hit by several weeks of international sanctions, is recovering this morning. now the ruble is trading at 83 rubles to the dollar. that's about where it was before russia invaded ukraine in early march, the ruble fell to his low as 143 rubles to the dollar. the us says it's being propped up by restrictions on currency exchanges. russian president putin now demands that buyers of russian natural gas only pay in rubles, and that scene is away the strengthen that currency

well, the price of fuel and crude oil is down here in the u. s. after president biden said millions of barrels of oil would be released from the nation's strategic petroleum reserve. triple a, says the average price of regular unleaded gas is 4 21 a gallon that's down to penny since yesterday and down three cents from last week. crude oil prices have dropped to about $100 a barrel over the next six months. president biden will release 180 million barrels of oil from the strategic reserve. that's more than triple the old record set last thanksgiving tof from the skyrocketing gas prices. putin's price hike nearly a dollar more and less than three months to combat that now and in the future, president biden outlined a multi point strategy one to do things to bring prices down now. by releasing oil from the u. s strategic petroleum reserve one million barrels per day. for the

next six months over 100 and 80 million barrels. u. c. berkeley haas energy economist severin bornstein. the strategic petroleum reserve is there to deal with these international geopolitical crises and we definitely have one right now. what about the price of gas will have a small effect on gas prices. the price of crude oil came down about $5 a barrel. and that would translate 12 cents a gallon at the pump using the reserve buys time for oil producers to vastly ramp up u. s production by fall. right now. a lot of production wells are idle while other oil lays dormant or hoarded in already approved, but unused drilling leases and i'm calling for use it or lose it policy. some oil companies have said they will be able to produce a million barrels a day. by fall. it makes sense because you don't want companies holding onto leases that they aren't going to actually do anything

with but getting the necessary labor equipment and parts needed or if he because of scarce labor and supply chain shortages. opec may increase production a little but that's because a little increase allows them to rake in far more money when prices are high, but not enough to immediately collapse prices. but it will help consumers with prices while also undermining russia's finances. finally, make the american energy future far less vulnerable to foreign influence and pressure. i'm going to use the defense production act to secure american supply change for the critical materials that go into batteries for electric vehicles. and the storage of renewable energy. the ever changing oil futures market pegs oil prices $20 a barrel lower in the next six months to a year. but russia still remains the wildcard tom vacar ktvu, fox two news and bay area gasoline prices are slowly going down, triple a now

says in san francisco. a gallon of unleaded gas averages. 5 92. in oakland. it's 5 84 san jose is $5.83 well. house speaker nancy pelosi says lawmakers are debating their options were bringing down gas prices and protecting consumers. there is very interested in our caucus and stopping price gouging on the part of the of the industry. it's a about passing on whatever we might pass to alleviate the price at the pump to the consumer. experts say the actions lawmakers are debating would help the oil market to re balance but it won't be a permanent fix for those high gas prices. time. it's world seven later this morning in san francisco, a transit project years in the making will officially open the badness bus . rapid transit lanes are opening after six long years of road word. last night, munich

for people who apply for the state's rent relief program before midnight thursday, and those still waiting for funds. thousands continue to wait for relief whether applications are pending. it would be cruel, wasteful and unfair to subject californians to eviction the loss of rental income now when they've done everything, asked of them by filing and completing their application. the housing is key program has seen a large backlog and distributing funds so far, 507,000 people have applied for rent relief and about 223,000 have received approval. the eyes are 36 to 1. on the measure of the measure passes the lone dissenting votes . san francisco state senator scott wiener, they will not be able to apply, they will lose state eviction protections. and if you live in a place like san francisco you will lose your local you will not have any local covid related eviction protections. winter said he supports the extension, but not the part of the bill that preempts many local governments from implementing their own eviction protections, including

san francisco. it ties the hands of local governments actually help people and that i find both saddening and in some ways really deplorable tenants. rights groups argue the state needs to extend the deadline for struggling renters to apply for assistance. it is incumbent upon our government actually come through that promise, so we need to extend this program. we need to make sure that there's enough funding in it to cover every person who applies for as long as we need to groups representing landlords are also frustrated. the california rental housing association released this statement before the vote. enough is enough. some of our members have not received rental income for more than two years. and can no longer make ends meet by halting applications for those in need and extending the eviction moratorium. rental housing providers are being forced to carry the financial weight of the pandemic, and some of them will lose their properties. as a result, at the end of the day. this is going to provide needed relief to so many californians. but there's no question that many people are being left behind in this legislation, something that should not be lost in this debate, while

governor newsom is out of the country lieutenant governor delaney kunal accuses serving as acting governor. she's now the first woman in california history to signed a bill into law. greg lee ktvu fox two news . alright, greg. thank you, thomas 4 38 getting you ready on this friday morning with your weather. steve paulson's here. mr clark, we're going to look at some really sad rain numbers here. fortunately i mean, october december saved us from disaster. right fire season wise and then you know, it's certainly help. but once we hit january it was it was a grim picture there. the lowest in 173 years was our previous january february march with only an inch and 13 100 fell in san francisco . the top three dryers have all been in the past decade. this little trend there? yeah not a good one, either. 2022 2015 and 2013. so i mean, getting good rain years now is getting to be a tall, tall order and how much pressure is on next year now already? just amazing here, and

to let this all street suite were passed by so you can probably hear me just a little more clearly. there we go. the project here started back in 2016 and traffic leaders say they didn't expect it to take as long. as it did you found shallow power power lines that they didn't know who who they belong to. they found native american artifacts and all kinds of things were down there that they had to deal with that really lengthen this process. according to the transit system, upgrading technology underground now means the city is now better prepared for the next major earthquake. city says other major improvements to the area includes some better lighting, sidewalk extensions and new countdown signals for people crossing along venice. the city, including mayor london, breed will hold a ribbon cutting ceremony this morning in front of the city's veterans building war memorial. first bus to run along the red lanes will start running at 10 this morning. reporting live in san francisco . i'm james torres. ktvu fox two news, james. thank you knew this

continued their airstrikes across ukraine, including in kiev only days after pledging to pull back russian troops. russia has repeatedly lied about its intentions. so we can only judge russia on its actions, not on its words. now. ukrainian authorities say russian troops have left the chernobyl nuclear site and gave back control of that nuclear plant reports the russians may have been exposed to high levels of radiation. evacuations in the heavily damaged ukrainian city of mariupol, or plan today after a temporary ceasefire was agreed to by russian and ukrainian leaders about 100,000 people are still in mariupol. they're cut off from food and water, they can't leave as constant russian shelling hits their city. put it . we didn't even expect to be attacked. no one was expecting it. it was such #### i can't express it. the red cross is

preparing to send in a convoy of 45 busses to evacuate. the people who are trapped. time is now 56. russian ruble hit by several weeks of international sanctions is recovering this morning. now the ruble is trading at 83 rubles to the dollar. that's about where it was before russia invaded ukraine. in early march, the ruble fell to his low as 143 rubles to the dollar. the u. s says it's being propped up by restrictions on currency exchanges. russian president putin is now demanding that buyers of russian natural gas only pay in rubles that is seen as a way to strengthen the currency. both feud and crude oil prices are down slightly this morning nationwide following president biden's unprecedented oil release from the nation's strategic petroleum reserve. triple a reports. a gallon of regular unleaded gas is averaging $4.21. that's down a penny from yesterday, down three cents from last week.

crude oil prices have fallen to about $100 a barrel. the president in the next six months will release 180 million barrels of oil from the reserve. that's more than triple the previous record, which was just set last thanksgiving. ktvu is tom vacar now breaks down. the white house has planned to offer drivers some relief. putin's price hike nearly a dollar more and less than three months to combat that now and in the future, president biden outlined a multi point strategy one to do things to bring prices down now by releasing oil from the u. s. strategic petroleum reserve one million barrels per day. for the next six months over 180 million barrels. u. c. berkeley haas energy economist severin bornstein. the strategic petroleum reserve is there to deal with these international geopolitical crises and we definitely have one right now. what about the price of gas will have a small effect on gas prices. price of crude oil came

down about $5 a barrel. and that would translate to about 12 cents a gallon at the pump using the reserve buys time for oil producers to vastly ramp up u. s production by fall. right now. a lot of production wells are idle while other oil lays dormant or hoarded in already approved, but unused drilling leases and i'm calling for use it or lose it policy. some oil companies have said they will be able to produce a million barrels a day. by fall. it makes sense because you don't want companies holding onto leases that they aren't going to actually do anything with but getting the necessary labor equipment and parts needed or if he because of scarce labor and supply chain shortages. opec may increase production a little but that's because a little increase allows them to rake in far more money when prices are high, but not enough to immediately collapse prices, but it will help consumers with prices while also undermining

russia's finances. finally, make the american energy future far less vulnerable to foreign influence and pressure. i'm going to use the defense production act to secure american supply change for the critical materials to go into batteries for electric vehicles. and the storage of renewable energy. the ever changing oil futures market pegs oil prices $20 a barrel lower in the next six months to a year. but russia still remains the wildcard tom vacar ktvu fox two news. alright our time is 59. we're ready to talk about april 1st weather and steve is going to try to give you a good forecast got i think i have a good forecast new it, but i have some bad news and then some good news. how's that bad news? first always. well, not yet, but second, okay, second. yes jason says here with the retirement of marco baniyas. do you have any memorable story of him and yourself? my good friend christina kerrigan yesterday who watches us religiously text me

crude oil prices fell just a bit following president biden's announcement when u. c. berkeley energy economist says we could soon see gas prices come down more significantly at the pump. i think we are going to see prices come down pretty soon because we had a big spike not just in crude oil prices, but in that margin between the crude oil price and the price of gasoline, the refinery margins and those seem to be coming down already at the wholesale level. when that happens, it's usually a week or two before they really come through to the retail level. professor borenstein says he expected the next couple of weeks. gas prices should drop 20 , or 30 cents a gallon areas finally beginning to see a very slight drop in gas prices. tripoli reports this morning in san francisco. a gallon of regular unleaded gas is averaging $5.92 oakland's averages. 5 84 san jose's 5 83. all down a penny from yesterday's averages down about
