a few minutes before the trial has started. and now during the proceedings, no reporters, no friends, family members, or us embassy stuff for the site or are allowed in the room. and people familiar with such cases are saying that this type of violation puts additional psychological burden on the i guess person, mr. guess collision death case sketchup on a few other stories making headlines around the world today. at least $22.00 people have been killed in 10 years during nationwide protest over a controversial tax plan. that's according to local rights organization. police open fire demonstrators who stormed the parliament building on wednesday after lawmakers passed deeply unpopular tax fights. so i one says it's coast guard chased away chinese naval vessels from waters off one of its islands. the incident is part of what taiwan calls chinese harassment that has escalated china. views the

vehicles in artillery to trick the russians into using their valuable real weapons to destroy ukrainian de course. but just who is behind making the facts that are saving the real items from destruction and, and triple 7. how it's destroyed by russian fire, except that it's not a real how it's a, but rather a model. these fake west and artillery pieces made by volunteers. the decoys meant to full russian soldiers into wasting expensive munitions to destroy them. the russians see the fe, code tillery from drones, and cannot distinguish the model from real weapons. proper camouflage also plays a role when he is quoted. the book of zillow is giving you some, uh uh, yeah, the military showed me how the fix look on the russian screens. you must see him come with. we used to create more detailed models when he does go, but the military told me they don't need all this. i'm alone. that awesome. the main thing is to have the basic elements. this thing is the side. and there's more

than enough detail here for how they see this stuff. it's for my 2 bed 2 bath brooklyn used to make furniture a year ago, he received a request from the military to make models of weapons. he made his own drawings based on the photos from the internet. it shows that it's what we've already made more than a 100 model. busy one real how it's our costs at least $3000000.00. so we've already saved about $300000000.00 for our army. we've done that sort of these to a stake, how it costs about a $1000.00. the, well, the russian projectile that destroys it, costs $35000.00 the fish. and this is what fascinates us there. we can do something here in civilian life that really helps the army helps, will save the guy on the floor if he across men are working on the model of the soviet era onto the re piece. it's made of plywood 10 sheets and scrap metals. this

is the finished product, a common almost 10 meters long. the model has enough detail to be indistinguishable from the real common when seen from a drone. michela is the 2nd generation carpenter. what he wants most is for the products he has worked on to be destroyed as soon as possible. so the other one is that on your, if the russians watch from drones and expedite and it looks like a real one, there will be air strikes, increases more strikes on our fake weapons mean more lives saved for our military. well, example boys so that they don't have to take risks to more air strikes, the better that these crossman can make. models of west and re dogs, and even the german iris t. a defense system of ukrainian veteran and military analyst alexi huckman emphasizes that it is necessary to keep a balance between the resources spent and their effectiveness. sure. when the

virginia to face start creating the special unit 0 is doing and allocating a large number of people and forces to do this, it won't be worth the most of those work. but they don't protect 100 percent against the enemy attacks and shake and confuse the enemy sometimes. and that's okay. that is if even one missile hits the domain, you know the cost hundreds or thousands of dollars, it's already a success. so i think this is the familiar one if the terms are terms of sees ukrainian engineering units don't disclose which models they use and why, but they want to generate as much support as possible to continue the work that you're watching, dw noticed, just reminder the top story we're following for you right now. julia sanchez arrived in australia, freeman after pleading guilty to violating espionage laws that a us board in so so big deal spared him for the present time and ends the links,
