when they see in us, they feel it thanks to your strikes, warriors, especially in the didn't ask region life. i want to particularly highlight the 5th separate assault brigade and the $57.00 to separate motorized, infantry brigade of which skilfully decisively and effectively defended our positions, destroyed the occupiers. okay, and most importantly, move forward to most of the ones whose comments come on a day of claim and counter claim, and what could be the starting ukraine's along the way to counter offensive troll stratford. how's the latest from keith? the russian army says this video shows ukrainian military vehicles being forced to withdrawal of draw failed attempts to push into russian occupied territory in the southern donate, squeegee, and the eastern new grain. so if you're on june, the full for you had to be launched, an unsuccessful attempt at a large scale offensive in the south or next direction, 6 back and at least him to talk battalions of the enemy will activated. the goal

was to break to defend cease in the most vulnerable and very of opinion, sectors of the front. the enemy did not to treat these tasks. it has no successes or the statement which is difficult to independently verify comes. a few days of ukraine's president below them is zalinski said he's all full sees well now ready for a long awaited ukrainian counter offensive. his foreign minister implied the same. we received enough weapons to begin the counter offensive, but i will say again, my answers is always the same to this. i will say that we received enough of weapons often we, when, because until we haven't one, there is there will be never enough of weapons. ukrainian military says this video shows russian positions coming on the heavy fall to the south of the town of buff mode, which russia claimed full control over the last month. was late,

so the leader of the russian motion regroup. wagner released an audio message saying ukrainian forces were making small gains in the village of beth. cute. no town yet again blamed russian defense minister said again, shall i go? i'm chief of general stuff for larry, cause him off. just part of the cuba has already been lost. the troops are quietly running away. what a disgrace should i go get us the most. i heard you go to the front line, pick up a gun and make the trip stand up and move forward. come on, you can do it. and if not, you will die. he rose, ukrainian military and recent days as little as what can be described as a campaign of silence. he released this video aimed at the public, the media and ukrainian soldiers appealing for silence on the counter offensive in order to preserve some element of surprise. me the claim and counsel claims there is increasing evidence of an intensification of fighting various locations along

the front line. whether this represents the beginning of the long awaited ukrainian counter offensive and efforts by ukraine in full seas to find weak spots in russian defense. or indeed these a small proving attacks i hated the launch of full scale operation. last will become clear in the coming days. so i'll strap it down to 0. keith figure a sector state answering, blinking says washington will not let iran develop nuclear weapons. speaking at the american israel public affairs committee blinking also urge the normalization of relations between saudi arabia and israel. he made the commons just hours before leaving for talks and re on in the united states has a real national security interest in promoting normalization between is real and saudi arabia.

we believe that we can and indeed we must play an integral role in advancing it. no, you know there's just that this can be done quickly or easily, but we remain committed to working towards that outcome, including on the trip. i'm about to take this week to jetta and we are for engagements with our saudi and gulf counterparts. our white house correspondent, kimberly how kit has more. the normalization of relations between is real and saudi arabia is a top priority for the united states because the us sees it as. * tied to its own national security interest, and as a result, the us secretary of state antony blinking will be traveling to the region. he'll be traveling to re it as well as jetta. to have conversations about how that can continue to expand. already there has been commercial air traffic between israel as well as saudi arabia. but the united states feels that there can be much more in

terms of economic development, advancement in terms of stability, prosperity and integration. so this is what those conversations will be about. it's a building upon the abraham accords hatched under the trump administration. but the obstacle in all of this is the acquiring of a nuclear weapon or the attempts to do so by iran. some things as the white house says, is not an option in the eyes of the united states. and as a result, all options are on the table for preventing that should of ron decide to ignore the path to diplomacy for resolving this issue. the national security council spokesperson john kirby. it's making it a white house briefing on monday, said though, however, if a ron schuster opened up an embassy and re odd. and this would certainly help transparency. it would also help the stopping and intercepting of ships then that would be very good in the you're not as, as the united states. what is not good in the eyes of the united states, or ron,

having a nuclear weapons, something that the united states will do all it can to prevent. kimberly, how could alj a 0? the white house, the former us vice president mike pens has officially entered the 2024 race for the white house and says, bid will pit him against his former boss, donald trump. allen fisher reports from washington dc. we gave america a new beginning for life. he said that we could everyone use, it would be no, it's official here and i have to spend 3 months laying the groundwork. former vice president mike pens has filed the paperwork to take on his old boss because the republican presidential nomination. pence went against donald trump. once before, he refused to block 2 bygone selection as president as trump one today, and ended up running for his life from his supporters. because he's going to have to address january 6 with donald trump presumably right next to him. and that's

going to be really interesting to see in terms of how he's going to answer that, how trop is going to respond. it's going to be really intriguing. i don't think he has any chance of winning pens, joins a growing field. nikki haley, the former us ambassador to the u. n. as in, instead of tim scott of south carolina. we know if we weren't the ones that trump advisor, former new jersey governor chris christy, who failed in the 2016 nomination fight, is expected to a nice and choose. the north dakota governor doug berg them will join this week to with is a hutchinson from arkansas who was already declared both our names hardly knowing of their home states and at least favorites to draw posts under slaughter. the governor on desantis expect it to be trumps. biggest challenger, but most pools have them hardly make good dent in from sleep. that's given to others hot? no, they believe they could be the person to be trump. i think a lot of these people are running because they want to be president. honestly,

i think a lot of them are running because they either want a cabinet position or they want to be the running me and they refused to attack donald trump because they're afraid of him. and they're afraid of his banks and they want to have that support to further their political ambitions. the field is already crowded and more unexpected to join, but they're all still a long way behind donald trump. mike pence hope seeking, creates who is born with a bit of history and become the latest vice president. when the top dog disliked the mine, he would ultimately have to beat job. i'm all in fisher. i'll just go to washington . that's last week to is also franco, who is a republican strategist, supportive of president trump, he's in washington dc, joining us on the thanks for being with us and i was a 0. so how unusual is it for a former vice president to run against the president that he served? well, this is highly unusual directly. thank you very much for the invitation. the closest thing we've had in our country, this is really uh,

1912. but there's not much of an analogy between former president of the roosevelt and president tat, but that's a long, long way away. so this is highly, highly unusual. but of course, merican politics has been highly unusual in recent years as well. yeah, it has. so what can we expect then from the pens campaign? well, a couple of things i did. the report was extra. now, a lot of these are candidates are, are running for the 2nd spot for, for the cabinet. the course that's not mr. pinches of possibilities. he's had a very peculiar position to be republican based, or they were highly dominated by president trump gc. now it is disloyal, this reference to january 6th that does not play well with the republican voters and trump supporters. so he's seen as disloyal. at the same time, he owns the truck agenda. he was vice president. so other candidates, such as mister desantos can distinguish themselves. he just did recently he said

for example, governor the sat just that why did president trump accomplish a number of things regarding the deep state and investigations and mexican wall? his 4 year teacher talking to trump record, he's saying governor dissenters all get it done. so he's distinguishing himself about what he can accomplish by force. it has can do that. so he can't really a run against president trump's record. that's his record. at the same time to run 2nd for this kind of allow me for a 2nd. he is expected to position himself as a continuation of the trumps agenda. but without the bad good. so is that not going to appeal to republican voters? a? well, that's the land, the other borders have as well. district, the scientist as a braced at almost every major candidate has any chance of winning the nomination as embrace the trump agenda. almost all of them. they haven't embrace president trump. governor christie, for example, embraces the agenda ages. so trump project, trump can be elected, but they,

they don't distinguish themselves. the only ones that distinguish themselves are people, they're not really serious contender such as governor. i just enter course, undeclared, candidates like lives. cheney and and, and governor said no, no. so the that is your best, the right question. that is his predicament. he is continuation of job, but this loyal to trump. so you either, if you're a trump supporter and like the trump agenda, you don't think president trump is electable, you will try to governor de santis for example. right. and if you really don't president trump, you're not going to turn to his vice president. you would turn to governor christie or fathers over tech, present a drop very directly look what are we to read into the fact that so far as far as we know, according to the polls, trump is commanding the lead. and now you have a number of candidates who are entering the race. what are we to read into that? well, i read it into this into the, into those numbers, into the candidacy. i should say, there is a sense many of these candidates that president trump could implode,

we are expecting in washington this week later this week and indictment president trump on a federal charges of obstruction in the documents case in more lago. so there's just even though it has helped president trump to date and might continue to, to help president trump, that's on clear where that will be short, long or long term. so these candidates are positioning themselves with the expectation possibility that president, trump will falter that president, trump will become of his own victim to many cents and they will be there to pick up the pieces. that is really what the agenda is. and that's why you've seen them gingerly differ with his, with his up policy positions, the president, the problem with vice president pants is that trump royalist are not going to embrace a disloyal vice president in the eyes that republican voters, he might appeal to a centrist outside the republican party or did some democrats, but not to republican voters,

so please candidacy will either be launched effectively in iowa or will die in iowa. and i will just say one a digital point i think is very important. she does appeal, vice president, trump, a vice president, parents of why he was selected by president trump with evan. joe, that goes more bands. religious conservatives who make up the vast majority of iowa republicans, that's 1st in our country cox. so he does well in iowa and president trump or dispatcher, that is, is narrow lane to the nomination. okay, thank you so much at all for franco, for joining us from las vegas. thank you so much. i. now canada is on track for its worst ever a wild fire season. it's battling hundreds of fires in several provinces, many burning out of control. more than 20000 people have been evacuated, prime minister, just into the warrens, but even more widespread fires are likely in the coming months or bernal's reports
