5:07 am
feel could push russia into feeling that ok, this is no longer just, you know, that this is just an, a proxy warner with the u. s. ad nature. because the u. s. is supplying weapons that ukraine could potentially fall at russia. that's why biden is very reluctant, or least is refusing for them for now to send those sorts of weapons to russia because he feels that them might get the world into world war 3. she have returned see, live in washington dc. thank you for that. while there was a surgeon that volunteers joining the ukranian army shortly after russia began its invasion in february as included women. and after more than 6 months of war, some and our training men in how to fight gabriel. alexander in the capital, keith spoke to some of those volunteers at this army training center near keith, ukrainian soldiers run through combat drills. they're practicing skills they'll
