now, mission meltdown, the u.s. supply rocket heading to the international space station explodes seconds after liftoff. ready for battle. the rocky peshmerga moving closer to the isis fight ers in the town of cloudy ban i. and the u.s. president says that health workers are crucial to containing ebola in west africa. >> america is not defined by fear, and when we see a problem and challenge then we fix it. >> also ahead, a man called britain's schindler receives the czech republic's highest award for saving many children in world war ii. we begin with this quote, we'll fix it and learn from it. those words from a nasa official after a rocket blew up seconds after takeoff late tuesday night, happening on the virginia coastline, just after 6:00 p.m.
11:01 pm
eastern time. there is a lot of damage, look at that, just spectacular explosion. the good news is there are no deaths and no injuries to report. orbital science corporation owned that rocket. it was supposed to hold food supplies and materials for the space station. orbital will lead the investigation with the nasa space station. >> we conducted a lot of tests and analysis to get ready for this mission. however, something went wrong and we'll find out what that is. we'll didn't the root cause and we'll correct it and come here and fly at wallops again. >> take another look at this, a view of the explosion from a pilot who was watching the explosion from a small plane. and there you see the bright light perhaps when the error took place and then this, as it
11:02 pm
hit the ground. the weather was perfect as you can see here, and you can see the huge flame and fire ball. tom foreman has more on this. >> reporter: the destruction of the rocket took less than 20 seconds. at launch everything looked fine, but within a matter of moments it was clear something was going wrong. the company that built this under a contract with nasa, orbital sciences said, they saw the aircraft fall, and there was some movement, and then it fell to earth at that point. that is really all they know because they have to collect the debris. it is important to all of them, safety being one of the reasons, they have an $8.4 billion contract to nasa, with eight trips to the international space station to supply it. now they must begin the long, slow forensic work of picking up the pieces and analyzing all the
11:03 pm
materials of the rocket to find out what went wrong. >> tom foreman there, it is an important question, the weather was clear as we just saw and there were apparently no technical issues before takeoff. so the key question, of course, is what could have gone wrong to cause such a catastrophic event. i talked to one of the commanders of the international space station. >> at that stage of flight, errol, it is only the first part. the lowest part of the rocket that is burning, providing thrust. that rocket motor, and obviously it stopped producing thrust. and if you look really closely at the video and then frank who works for the parent company said the same sort of thing. it looks like it was losing thrust at the same time as some lateral debris came out of the motor. so it is possible either the nozzle came apart or one of the
11:04 pm
spins parts of the motor came apart, went out the side, but obviously there was a significant loss of thrust, the vehicle stopped the ability to rise and then started to fall, and then the safety officers would have pushed their buttons to blow the rocket up to keep it from heading some undesired direction. so a pretty awful sequence of events. >> and what is so bizarre is that the weather was perfect. this rocket passed all the security checks that happened before these launches. i mean, what could it possibly have been, you know, something that would have passed a check and resulted in such a catastrophic explosion like that? >> well, nothing is perfect, of course. it is true in anything, especially the higher the energy, the higher the power of it. and so something is immensely powerful, such as a rocket motor, it is a controlled explosion going on. and occasionally it doesn't go
11:05 pm
perfectly. it is not like space flight is something we have been doing for a thousand years and is completely fool proof. even our more mundane transportation systems, trains and cars that have been around for a long, long time still occasionally have failures. and tonight, unfortunately, the rocket had a failure. we don't have conclusive results, of course, nobody does. but they will look at all the data sources. the real key is that nobody was hurt and we'll learn from this. that is how rocket engines get better. and we still have so far to go to make rocket engines as safe as many other ways of moving around. so it is really unfortunate, nobody is hurt, they will figure out what the problem was and hopefully we'll be able to make better rocket engines in the future. >> but that is an important point there. you see the size of the explosion. you hear and see the strength of it, as well. it is a miracle that nobody was killed or injured. earlier when you spoke to me you
11:06 pm
said that is actually a sign of how safe space travel has become in the past few years. can you elaborate on that? >> well, the thing to remember is, almost all of them are made of fuel. that long cylinder of the rocket is basically just a huge fuel tank. because it is so hard to push something through the atmosphere. and then you're going to the speed you need to go to stay in orbit. >> chris hatfield, great to get your perspective there today. most importantly, nobody was hurt or killed. but a setback for nasa's curriculum. >> thank you. and now to some other stories we're following for you. the white house is investigating some suspicious cyber activity on its complete network but is not calling it a hacking incident. it is also not placing any blame yet anyway. the white house official tells cnn the investigation has resulted in some
11:07 pm
ages in the system, and they stress that it stems from the outages itself and not any specific activity. and the u.s. is beefing up security all over the country, to protect nearly 10,000 government buildings upda s and million. they are beefing up efforts after attacks took place in canada last week. now syrian/kurds battling kobani are about to get more help, the peshmerga troops are bringing weapons and will join the fight against isis. that is despite what a peshmerga government official said yesterday about iraqi forces serving only as advisers.
11:08 pm
now, the u.s. is investigating reports that isis used chlorine gas as a weapon twice in iraq and twice in syria. jim sciutto has details on that plus reaction to the militants' propaganda campaign. >> reporter: these are victims of what may be another frightening weapon in isis' weapon arsenal. iraqi troops claim there was a chlorine gas attempt. chlorine itself is not a chemical weapon but when mixed and weaponized it is banned from use on the battlefield. >> these allegations are extremely serious. and we are seeking additional information in order to be able to determine whether or not we can confirm it. >> reporter: chlorine gas has a long, brutal history in iraq, isis' precursor used it,
11:09 pm
sometimes to cause mass casualties. >> it is more of a defensive and more of a psychological weapon than anything else. it is just another approach to terrorizing a population. >> reporter: today in kuwait, general john allen who leads the anti-isis coalition, calls on others to fight back against isis' terror line. the group has use of fear, bragging with accounts of battlefield victories and now challenging the coalition's facts on the ground after the coalition claimed success in pushing isis back from the town of kobani, isis fought back with this video of the british man,
11:10 pm
cantlie. >> we know they're taking a hostage, a man they have taken captive and obviously forcing this individual to do this video. and it is just another example of their depravity. >> now, the state department is striking back itself on line, releasing its own video, sometimes mocking isis. travel is inexpensive, this video says, because you won't need a return ticket. there have now been at least four alleged uses of chlorine gas by isis militants, two times in syria, two times in iraq, and the u.n. has now been asked to investigate. jim sciutto, cnn, washington. and we'll continue to discuss this now, and get a closer look at iraq's peshmerga going to fight isis in syria via turkey, by bringing in our cnn analyst, rick francona joining us, colonel, a story which can be complicated. thank you for staying up with
11:11 pm
us. let's talk about the iraqi peshmerga joining the fight. because considering that turkey has its own internal issues with the kurdish population there, could this complicate the matter. or are the boots on the ground, is this what is needed to fight isis? >> well, i think it helps fight isis, anything that we can bring to the fight is a good thing. boots on the ground, always a good thing. and hopefully these iraqi/kurds will have some u.s. training and be better able to coordinate the air strikes. what is frightening to me is the turks are allowing them to work with them. they are going to provide arr t
11:12 pm
artillery support, will they allow the kurds to bring weapons across their territory? very surprising they will allow this. but if you look at it from their point of view they have taken such public pressure because they have not joined the fight themselves. this is one way they can say well, we're allowing boots on the ground. so i think the peshmerga will certainly add a dimension to the fight on the ground. will it be enough? isis has put a lot of resources into fighting kobani, do they want to give it up? both sides want to keep the town or take the town. >> so based on what you know, then, i know a lot of the details and information are elusive. how does each side stack up? i mean, according to our reporting the peshmerga are using weapons from the saddam hussein era. and if you look closely at what isis militants have been able to do they have been able to operate this serious military
11:13 pm
hardware, we're talking surface-to-air missiles, and how will it stack up compared to what the peshmerga will be able to do? >> the isis has got a lot of advanced weaponry. and they have more importantly, the know-how to use it. many of the isis fighters were in the iraqi army. if you look at the structure of isis and the senior leadership, many of them were party officials. they know how to do civil governments. and many of them were iraqi army officers. at the have the requisite training and skills to not only fight on the battlefield but to manage the fight and lead the fight. if you look at what isis is doing, it is impressive. they're conducting operations in kobani and 400 miles away just outside of baghdad. and mosul. they're moving logistics around.
11:14 pm
all of these fighters have to be fed, housed and supplied with ammunition. this is a big logistics operation for isis. and they seem to be doing a pretty fair job. and they're doing it under this american air power, coalition air power dropping bombins on them. so isis has shown themselves to be a resilient, rather adaptive army. and they're going to take kobani if the peshmerga can't launch a good offensive. it doesn't look good for the peshmerga, even the small number of iraqi-kurds coming in there, i don't think they will tip the balance. >> and just as you said that, colonel, we looked at a map of many, many cities that isis controls and this entire u.s.-led effort has yet to roll that back. and of course, we're seeing kobani of being a major flash point.
11:15 pm
thank you so much for being here, on the west coast, colonel francona. and president obama is looking at a policy he wants to direct. plus, some families are watching, and waiting as lava creeps closer, we'll bring you more on the threat to many people's homes. stay with us here on cnn. i lost my sight in afghanistan, but it doesn't hold me back. i go through periods where it's hard to sleep at night, and stay awake during the day. non-24 is a circadian rhythm disorder that affects up to 70% of people who are totally blind. talk to your doctor about your symptoms and learn more by calling 844-844-2424. or visit my24info.com.
11:18 pm
welcome back, u.s. president obama plans to meet later wednesday with health care workers who have returned from west africa. this is an effort to show support. his support for ebola volunteers and to show his opposition to quarantines put in place by some u.s. states. as jim acosta reports, critics since the u.s. policy on ebola remains inconsistent. >> good afternoon, everybody. >> president obama tried to address a critical part of an ebola response, containing an outbreak of fear. >> this is something that will get fixed. america in the end is not defined by fear. >> so the president called on states to follow the cdc's less stringent guidelines for people returning from west africa and to steer of quarantine rules. >> we have to make sure the workers who are willing and dedicated to go over there in a really tough job, that they're
11:19 pm
applauded, thanked and supported. >> that was a not so subtle jab at new jersey governor chris christie who confined a nurse to a tent inside a hospital for roughly three days. christie was asked whether he might be sued. >> whatever, get in line, i've been sued lots of times before. get in line, i'm happy to take it on. >> but as the president tried to calm fears, there was more confusion with the army going beyond protocol and placing some of the soldiers in quarantine. >> i don't understand how the president can take the stance. >> as the new york daily news put it, where the hell czar you? since joining the administration, klain has been out of the public eye and his twitter account is silent. the administration claimed he has performed well his first week on the job. >> what has he done?
11:20 pm
>> i guess there are a couple of ways to answer that question. ron arrived here early in the morning, stayed until late at night, and convened a variety of meetings, regularly briefing the president. >> meanwhile, australia is coming under harsh criticism for a freeze on people coming from ebola-infected countries. we discussed this yesterday, the u.n. said it will discourage the relief effort in west africa. the minister said quote, it is not going after ebola but rather it is against the 24 million citizens of sierra leone, guinea, and liberia. now, the world health organization counts more than 10,000 confirmed or suspected cases of ebola in west africa. more than 4900 as you see on this breakdown of those cases have been fatal. we've watched these numbers
11:21 pm
creek creep up each and every week, and the real fear is the cases could be much higher, the majority of the deaths are in liberia, guinea and sierra leone. experts say the fight is through education about less risky burial practices. as linda kinkaid reports, the tradition has already given way to precautions as the ebola victims are laid to rest. >> reporter: in the middle of a very grim epidemic there is one bright spot. sierra leone's capital, freetown, has tripled the number of safe ebola victims in the last week. transmitting them has been the leading cause of the threat. the ebola victims are most of a threat after death.
11:22 pm
the burial practices require that family members wash the body of the deceased loved one, and touch it, sometimes even kiss it prior to burial. nearly 5,000 people have died of ebola in west africa, almost 1300 of them in sierra leone. and officials estimate about 80% of infections in the freetown area were caused by touching the dead bodies of ebola victims. many countries have stepped up their response to the outbreak which includes educating people in ways to prevent the spread of the disease. >> if people can discipline themselves to follow those protocols and resist the temptation to hug their loved ones and to treat them in the ways that people of sierra leone has been treating their loved ones for many, many generations, if they can resist that they can be part of the solution and can avoid infection. >> reporter: the hope now is that this trend of education and prevention can be continued in neighboring countries, guinea and liberia.
11:23 pm
linda kinkaid, cnn. and we just see that health care workers really do face a major risk. well, a guest contributor to our website says that health care workers have always rallied to care for the sickest, and we'll need it to continue if the world wants to beat ebola. all right, coming up, lava has been flowing from a hawaiian volcano since june. but now it has become a major threat to some families there. we'll tell you what lies in its path after this short break. stay with us. ncer ] we help make secure financial tomorrows a reality for over 19 million people.

. welcome back, some families on hawaii's big island are watching helplessly as lava from the kilauea volcano inches closer to their homes. let's go ahead and show you some aerial drone footage, and it really goes to show you how close it is to the town of pahoa. it has already claimed one structure, a garden shed. but about 40 to 50 homes are among the group of residences projected in its path. i mean, 2,000 degrees is extremely hot. and as that aerial footage shows, i mean, you don't have a choice as to where this lava flows. >> it is coming to you and will take over essentially with these kind of temperatures.
11:26 pm
i notice some folks have been putting up berms, but i really don't think anything will stop it. it is just a matter of getting out of the way and heeding the warnings. and the entire you town will no eras erased. we're just talking about a giant blob. it is not narrow, it will take some homes perhaps as many as 40 to 50 as errol just mentioned. i'll zoom in here for just a moment. i have done additional drawings here. this is where they had it through the day yesterday. but i've done some calculations just through the 300 meters they gave to us here. and based on that i'm putting it right here. so this is about where it is right now approaching as you can see the main village road there. and there are homes there, as you can see, the specks here in the way. they're probably not going to be there. and these folks have to get out of the way already. that is the latest, at 7:30,
11:27 pm
local time. 340 yards from the same homes, 350 homes in the projected path at this point. this is what we're thinking. the first structure has been impacted. and we'll keep you posted on that. we're just hoping that everybody gets out of the way in time. this is essentially what is coming here, the spectacular images coming in of course through the weekend. we have the cemetery out there, see they got impacted. and now it is just getting closer and closer, there it is right there. the main road coming into town. just scary stuff as we continue to follow it for you. all right, we're going to talk about the other weather story which we have been following the last several days. this is our tropical cyclone, it is now the third strongest cyclone to form in the arabic sea, it just exploded last night. but just as quickly as it got going with winds north of 200
11:28 pm
miles per hour, by the time we get into india and pakistan, i think we'll deal with a little bit of rain this weekend. and gusty winds, but certainly not a significant threat to life and property and i see it there now. >> relief that the storm has petered out. thank you, ivan. now's the city of ferguson, missouri is on edge as residents wait for the decision from the grand jury hearings. why some fear that it could escalate. plus, you will hear disturbing human rights issues in north korea as officials say they belong the court. stay with us on cnn.
11:31 pm
. welcome back to those of you watching in the u.s. and all around the world. i'm errol barnett. i appreciate you staying here with me. here are our top headlines right now, a lot of damage, when an unmanned rocket exploded after launch. this happened two miles from the virginia coastline. the rocket fell back to earth creating a huge fire ball. nasa will assist the owner of the rocket in its investigation. about 160 iraqi/peshmerga fighters are making their way to the syrian city of kobani through turkey. the city will help the kurds fight the advancing isis. they are expected to reach kobani in the coming hours. and the u.s. is beefing up security in nearly 10,000 government buildings, in response to terrorist calls on soil after two deadly attacks in canada took place just last week. now, officials say the
11:32 pm
police chief in ferguson, missouri, is expected to step down, possibly as soon as next week. they say it is part of a plan to reform the police department and ease tensions in the aftermath of the shooting of the unarmed teen since august. the town has been in turmoil, since officer darren wilson, who is white, shot 18-year-old michael brown, who is black. the mayor insists there is no plan for the chief to resign. >> is there any other pressure -- >> they have been saying to step down, but we've stood by him. there is no change on that. >> in the meantime, the community remains on edge as everyone awaits a grand jury decision on possible charges against wilson. now, theiolent protests have subsided, by sarah sidner reports there are fears it could return at any moment depending
11:33 pm
on what happens in court. >> reporter: ferguson police officer darren wilson has not been seen in public since shooting and killing michael brown. wilson was expected to show up in court and testify in six felony drug cases. but the cases have been dismissed because wilson has not shown up to testify. the last time he was seen in ferguson was after the brown shooting august 9th. ferguson, missouri, has not been the same since. nightly protests have not stopped. they are mostly peaceful. >> it takes one person with bad intentions to make the entire situation spiral out of control. they take it above and beyond that. it is not just towards police anymore. sometimes the threats are going against police officers' families. >> protesters say it is the heavy-handed police response that created the problems. either way, the fear of what could happen if the grand jury does not indict wilson is growing. >> people are saying the place
11:34 pm
will blow up. >> yeah, some people say they will be a part of blowing it up if he doesn't get indicted. i just hope it doesn't get bad. i hope nobody gets hurt. >> well, i know that they're going to be really upset with the government buildings. i have heard about curfews that are going to happen. people are still going to think they are able to protest, and some people are scared and stockpiling and just saying they're not going to be able to get out of the house. there are a lot of people scared, some are so angry they don't care. >> and anticipation that the protesters will target government buildings and shut down streets as happened during the height of the protests had school administrators reacting sending these letters home to parents warning them of possible school closures. one superintendent with students who live in ferguson has written a letter making a plea to the prosecuting attorney. >> what are you asking of the prosecuting attorney's office? >> well, mainly, we want to make sure that the decision doesn't
11:35 pm
come out during a time in which school kids are attending school. which gives us the opportunity should something need to be done differently because of the response of the community based on the verdict that is handed down. >> while the community prepares, elsewhere they are speaking about the rumor, making a promise he can't keep. >> i know we wouldn't burn down a house, if we see anybody who wants to burn down a house, there are several others like myself that will not allow your homes to be vandalized. sarah sidner, ferguson, missouri. and now to another incident we're tracking, a u.s. special investigator wants north korea to be referred to the international criminal court. in a special report, he detailed a litany of abuses targeting people inside the communist country who don't comply with the regime.
11:36 pm
listen to this. >> and incontrovertibly, and on grounds, the human rights violations amount to crimes against humanity. >> paula hancock joins me live now from seoul, south korea. paula, the labor camps are among the more well-known human rights violations in north korea. but what is behind this latest push to hold pyongyang accountable? >> reporter: well, errol, this stems from the commission and the reports that was compiled by the united nations. since then, we've seen a charm offensive by many of pyongyang's officiali officiali officials. a deputy has been talking to
11:37 pm
journalists and officials, highly unusual, and they do claim there are no human rights abuses in that country. we do see high-level officials traveling around to different countries. so a very real charm offensive. but many critics say it is not sincere. the reason for this is because pyongyang is concerned about this human rights report. what we heard is that he wants this report to be referred to the community council in the united nations. so really the highest point to discuss it. he wants it to be referred to the international criminal courts. so he wants north korea to be referred to the criminal court. and this is obviously something pyongyang does not want. so this is why we've seen according to many observers, such a litany of diplomatic moves, a flurry of diplomatic activity over recent months. but those defectors who pyongyang calls human scum, they
11:38 pm
say there are extreme human rights abuses. this is what one lady told us back my march. >> they said i'm from a traitor's family, she tells me, then they beat me over the head with a wooden bat. i still have pains in my head and had to have surgery over four years ago. >> and the special interpreter for human rights says he welcomes the opening for korea to engage with the community, but wants to make sure it will not divert from this report. >> and all the defectors from north korea, all their stories match up which just gives it more legitimacy. and all the reports on what is ailing kim jong-un, the report confirms there was something wrong with his foot. >> yes, we have information from a south korean lawmaker who was
11:39 pm
in a closed door meeting with the intelligence agency. this is basically south korean intelligence agency, they believe kim jong-un had a cyst on his left ankle. they believe the north korean leader was diagnosed back in may or june and had surgery either september or this month in october. of course, we did see he disappeared for five weeks. there was a lot of speculation as to where he disappeared to and what was wrong with him. then when he repaired he was using a cane. he is still using a cane as he carries out his field guidance. another piece of information we got through the intelligence agency through this lawmaker was the purge they believe is still ongoing. they believe there are still a lot of movements among the elite and among those close to the listeadership leadership. they believe ten party officials have been executed by firing squad recently. and their alleged crimes vary from corruption to women's
11:40 pm
issues to even viewing south korean soap operas. so interesting information we're getting from south korean intelligence. but of course they're not giving their sources. it is not clear where they're getting this information from. errol? >> all right, giving us insight on what is happening in north korea. now, in mexico, investigators say new arrests may crack the case of 43 missing students. authorities say they have got four more people in custody and they're checking a grave site that may be connected to the missing teachers in training. the students were last seen in guerrero state over a month ago. the case has sparked protests and even encouraged the governor to step down. it was a day of mourning in canada. thousands gathered to pay respects to corporal nathan
11:41 pm
cirillo who was gunned down last week. he was attacked by michael zehaf-bibeau. authorities shot and killed zehaf-bibeau and since learned he had ties to the jihadist movement. the commander praised the slain soldier. >> he never took the hard knocks or tough challenges personally. he just smiled and soldiered on. both in the regiment and in life. loyal, tough, loving, true. his family knew it. his regiment knew it. and now canadians know it. rest in peace, corporal cirillo, your argyle family will not forget. >> and making things more heartbreaking, cirillo leaves behind a 5-year-old son. you see him pictured here.
11:42 pm
canada urged the citizens to pray for the boy and said he hoped the boy will know the entire nation is looking up to his late father. now investigators say the soldier's murder was part of a suspected terror attack. i asked katie simpson of c-tv what authorities were telling her. >> katie, it has been a full week now since this horrific attack. what is the status of the investigation? what new information do we know now that was not apparent this time last week? >> well, canada's police force, the rcmp, they're examining a video the suspect had on one of his personal devices. they would not say if it was a laptop or cell phone. but they found this video and they say it leads them to believe this was a planned terror attack. now, police say they had no warning on what happened one
11:43 pm
week ago. and they're combing a video to see if the intentions were shared with anyone. and they're trying to track down anyone who had contact with the suspect leading up to last wednesday's attack. >> that is interesting, because up until now they were still wondering if this was in fact a deranged individual. and they were looking at his criminal record. and there were no signs h s he in fact working with a terror organization. what is the specific piece of information? what do you hear now where they're leaning or calling this an act of terror? >> well, it is something that sort of evolved within the past few days. the suspect's mother came forward to say she didn't think her son was acting under some grand ideology. and to her, this was mental illness, however, earlier when she made the claims, the head of
11:44 pm
the organization said it was part of a planned attack that did kill the canadian soldier. they say in the video he lays out the reasoning, and the reasoning was ideological. >> now, katie, this is your beat. one thing that took place, canadians were resolute that they wanted to keep their way of open life and really not change because of this now suspected terror attack. in your view based on what you've seen in the past few days have things changed either socially or politically? >> well, parliament hill has opened again to the public. it was closed for several days. and canada's parliament was open. we have a very large front lawn which is usually open to canadians or tourists. it is something that members of parliament were proud of. they were proud when the visitations and tours resumed.
11:45 pm
you can definitely see a change at the security, where corporal cirillo was shot and killed. there are police officers on guard with submachine guns. that is something you do not typically see in ottawa. and on parliament hill we are starting to see their guards, they're armed now. and you're starting to see them with very large weapons. so that is different for canadians. but parliament has reopened. the public is welcomed once again to the area where the deadly shooting took place. >> all right, katie simpson, the national reporter for ctv, the national reporter speaking from ottawa, canada. thank you, katie. still to come, fighting crime in the dark web. we'll show you how law enforcement is beefing up spending and hiring to up its game against cyber criminals. the latest installment of our special series is next. plus, the czech republic puts the highest honor on a

cook says that customers want a safe way to do business. >> it is estimated that cyber crime costs the global economy $400 billion a year. and it's growing, in scale and sophistication. law enforcement is having to do the same. in netherlands, they're spearheading the fight. >> we need to up our game in the digital forensic skills, and certainly in terms of the national coordination. >> reporter: in washington, the secret service helped to solve a billion dollars worth of cyber crime last year. what do you need on the law enforcement side in order to better deal with this? >> hiring and training of law enforcement officers that have the skills that are necessary to
11:50 pm
run these individuals down wherever they might be around the world. >> are they in it for the financial gain? is it patriotism? >> you know, there is a lot pushed towards the patriotism. and the bottom line, the motivation for this is financial. >> these are people who are making a quick buck and a pretty big one at the moment. generating unprecedented amounts of profits on line. and doing it pretty easily, actually. well, it is not the first time of course that certain geopolitical circumstances can impede the way in which we operate against criminal and terrorist groups. so that is a fact of life. >> we have developed our expertise dealing with the eastern european russian language speaking cyber criminals. over the course of the last decade, it has become very apparent that those individuals are of the highest caliber, probably the most damaging cyber criminals out there. they're operating in many places
