3:05 am
will need democratic votes to get the $95000000000.00 for an agent on st. bill's past is highly unusual in the deeply polarized house of representatives. so it is a crucial vote is ukraine. it will need this to defend itself against the russian aggression and also considering that the white house has been lobbying and has been pressing the congress for months not to get this package. finally approved was who said there was seen some consensus among mainstream politicians but the same time for right republicans like major retailer green or already threatening to ours for public and how speaker johnson over these votes. so the question is, can you hang onto his job to that's a good question and i have republican lawmakers that you just mentioned a headset that you would reduce spending a fully ukraine to 0. she has accused the speaker of the house. speaker johnson of being controlled by the democrats. it won't be easy for johnson to form quite complicated bi partisan coalitions on saturday. because this package,

russian forces evidence linking study losses on ukraine, allowing them to seize oregon positions in the east of the country up to major setbacks and the 1st year of the war. russia now seems to have the advantage. president vladimir putin believes he's forces have turned the tide in his favor. they're slowly seizing more ukrainian territory and damaging its economy with long range strikes. suggests that the strategy is always the same. i need to show you better results than the commanders in the neighboring states as a friend looks better than the generals. you need to show that somehow your troops and moving forward. so if you don't show you these kinds of results or just say that you are holding your positions or pending or you creating attacks, not losing any type of a tree. that is a bad result. and you are likely to be replaced most of the questions and setup the
3:09 am
setup on doing it. for more than a year, the front line, at least in ukraine, has barely moved. the fiercest fighting is now taking place near the city of the russian forces are also trying to take tests if you are. that's new box mode, which was captured year ago. to do so, they're using a simple tactic, an upset and it's absolutely in humane, brutal, and so on. with this tactic works, it's about it involves pushing through ukrainian defenses. despite heavy casualties . suited means relentless attacks by small, medium sized groups. but without any serious maneuvers when you're without the support of the tank units or something come along. but i think they'll continue these attacks because no one sees any of the more effective way. but the split the water hold as possible at nissan, of egypt, and the russian armies facing equipment and weapons shortages. although the
3:10 am
