move forward versus turn back to donald trump? >> i think there are a lot of folks that want to move forward. i know that president trump has a great base here. it is strong. but at the same time, people don't want to hear about what has happened in the past. we had two years of biden administration that is zroigs o destroying our nation. >> this is the question hanging over this republican electorate. do they want to turn the page and move forward or stick with former president donald trump p? and the senator was blunt in saying she believes many want to move forward. she said that trump can also move forward and look ahead. but, of course, it's an open question if he'll do that. as for nikki haley, she made a strong impression on the republican voters in the room last night. the ones i talked to after the town hall said they like her humor and forcefulness on many of these issues. of course, this week the race gets more crowded when chris christie is set to jump in tomorrow and mike pence here in

wide across the washington, d.c., region. disrupting a sunday music rehearsal. ♪ >> and sending people and pets running for cover. the cause, u.s. 16 fighter jets scrambled to reach a private jet unresponsive and flying through tightly controlled washington, d.c., airspace. according to flight aware, the civilian aircraft took off from elizabeth to municipal airport in tennessee at 1:13 p.m. and bound for long island macarthur airport in new york. the plane with four people onboard turned around over long island heading back over the washington, d.c. area nearly two hours after it originally took off. that's when norad scrambled the f- f- f-16s thoz authorized to travel at supersonic speed. the pilot of the civilian

aircraft was unresponsive as the f-16 fighter jets attempted to make contact. at one point, according to the statement, the f-16s used flares in an attempt to draw attention from the pilot. the cessna 560 citation five traveling five miles off course going off radar at 3:23 p.m. and ultimately crashing in a rural mountainous terrain near george washington national forest near charlottesville, virginia. late sunday, according to a statement from virginia state police, first responders reached the crash site by foot but found in survivors. now according to faa records that, private jet was registered to a company called encore motors out of melbourne, florida. they told "the washington post" that the family members of theirs were onboard that plane including their daughter, a grandchild, and her nanny. they told "the new york times" that the family was returning to their home in east hampton, new

york, from another family home in north carolina. and that their grandchild is 2 years old. investigators are expected to be at the scene later today. >> brian todd, thank you. >> thank you so much. joining us now aviation correspondent. good morning to you. what can be ruled out right now? >> a lot can be ruled out here, poppy. but all of the signs point to that this was a rapid dep decompression of this cessna jet. the air inside is pressurized enabling those to breathe normal air while outside the air is thin and unbreathable. this is very similar, very likely, to the payne stewart crash that killed that professional golfer onboard a learjet. what is so interesting about rapid decompression is it leads to a ghost plane, one of the spookiest outcomes. up high in altitude when the airplane decompresses very

quickly that, leads to air inside being very unbreathable. at 34,000 feet where this plane was cruising, that leads to effective performance time, ept. consciousness of only 30 to 60 seconds n that time, the flight crew needs to put on oxygen masks very quickly or risk bec becoming hypoxic. you feel drowsy, you feel drunk, then you feel sleepy and then you lie into unconsciousness. it is a very creepy outcome here. and very similar to that crash in 1999. of course, something the national transportation safety board will look at here, poppy. although, they'll have to figure out, of course, from autopsies, whether or not this pilot crew onboard ultimately was hypoxic. >> can we learn anything about what may have happened from the flight path? >> the flight path tells a very interesting story. the plane was very likely on

autopilot. it stayed perfectly at the cruising altitude filed to the faa at 34,000 feet when it went from east tennessee all the way to macarthur airport in long island, new york. but then the question here is why did the airplane turn? why did it turn back to the southwest? and over washington, d.c., and ultimately crashing in virginia? likely something would the autopilot. it may have stayed on. we would have to actually see equipment onboard and that is something the ntsb will dig into with the records of the airplane. why did it turn? what were the settings on the autopilot? why did it keep flying? very likely that norad knew there was not a risk here. the airport was up high. we knew the airplane was unresponsive. it was above, well above the restricted airspace in washington, d.c., although it did penetrate which led to the scrambling of the fighter jets in pursuit, breaking the sound barrier, that sonic boom. that boom heard far and wise from annapolis to leesburg,

really everywhere, the fighter jets trying to catch up with it. they had to go faster than this jet was going about 400 miles an hour. >> really startled a lot of people. thank you. >> thinking about the four people. we have new and exclusive reporting this morning. ukraine is recruiting agents inside russia and providing them with drones to stage attacks. details ahead. also, tensions with china are on the rise after a chinese warship nearly collided with the u.s. navy destroyer. what both countries are saying this morning. l ... more you. so thank you. we h hope you like your work.

natasha bertrand joins us now. this is fascinating reporting that you have for us this morning. tell us what you learned. >> there has been a steady drum beat of explosions and fires in russia over the last year targeting oil depots, fuel depots, railways, pipelines. officials noticed marketed inc increase in those kinds of attacks and how brazen they've become beginning, of course with, that drone attack on the kremlin last month. u.s. officials are now telling us that they do believe that ukraine has agents and sympathizers inside russia that are carrying out the attacks on ukraine's bee half. not only that, but also that ukraine has actually given them drones in order to carry out these acts of sabotage. now, there are still a number of questions here including whether all of the drone attacks that we have seen over the last several weeks inside russia have been carried out by these pro ukraine sympathizers and agents.

it's unclear whether that is the case at this point. but what u.s. officials believe is that attack on the kremlin last month that saw two drones target the kremlin senate palace in may, they do believe that that incident was carried out by these pro ukrainian operatives inside russia. still unclear at this point who exactly in ukraine is controlling these operatives and these kinds of sabotage cells. but u.s. officials do believe that they're controlled by elements within ukraine's intelligence community and they note that ukrainian president zelenskyy does not require signoff on every one of the operation that's these agents carry out inside russia. so, a really interesting look here at how ukraine is taking the war to russia itself. >> really makes you look at the statements out of ukraine over the last month or so that insist that it has not been directly involved in it any of those drone attacks inside of russia. what about the west? the position of the united states, western allies, nato? supportive of this tactic?

>> yeah, poppy. outwardly, u.s. officials say that they do not support these kinds of attacks inside russia. but privately, u.s. and western officials actually tell us they think is a pretty smart military strategy. and, in fact, the uk foreign secretary told reporters just earlier this month that ukraine, quote, has the right to project force to underline their ability to project force into ukraine itself. and the french vice admiral actually told cnn on friday that these attacks are merely, quote, part of war. they that it is guy strategy to distract russia and divert resources and importantly make the russian population fear that they really are not safe anywhere. poppy? >> natasha, thank you. fascinating reporting this morning. staying overseas, massive crowds stretching a mile long taking to the streets in warsaw, poland, this weekend. >> thousands marched voicing

unconscious and severely injured. just a short distance from the accident site. rescue efforts ended as anger grows over the rail wau way saf. we're in eastern india. incredible this man even survived. what more do we know about this signal failure? >> right. i'm sorry. the police have asked us to move away from location. so we're stepping back. the fact of the matter is that these trains are huge and they were moving at high speed, 80 miles per hour. if you get a signal malfunction, an entire train can get moved on to another track as is believed would happen here and slam into something like a parked cargo train with devastating results. take a look at this report.

>> working on the rail road. an army of labors laying new rail by hand. racing to reopen this transport route after one of the deadliest train disasters india has seen in its modern history. >> on friday night, three trains collided in this area and everywhere on the side of the tracks in this rural part of eastern india, there are massive railroad cars that were, as can you see, severely damaged in the collision. this vehicle here this car was reserved for people with disabilities. you can still see people's personal belongings down below right outside. >> it slammed into a parked freight train. colliding after dark in this rural area.

villagers rescued passengers by the light of their cell phones. did you actually, as volunteers, pull survivors from the train wagons? >> yes. yes. i told the guys to look for the mobile light. it was so inclined that everybody was here. we had to pull them very carefully. we pull them out. few were alive. so we had to race the time. >> crowds of volunteers gather outside local hospitals. local reporters interviewing a crash survivor being transferred for treatment. among the crowd here, a worried mother. she still searching for her missing son, a passenger on the train. inside the hospital, some of the more than 1,000 injured in the crash. the road to recovery, may not be

we're live in hong kong with more. what can you tell us, anna? >> poppy, there is genuine concern that near misses like this could nuturn into a crisis. let's talk through what happened on saturday. canada's amc montreal, they were transiting through the taiwan straight as part of a joint exercise when a chinese vessel cut in front of the u.s. destroyer carrying out what u.s. officials say was a, quote, unsafe maneuver within 150 yards. the u.s. destroyer was forceded to slow down to avoid a collision as you can see in this video released by the u.s. navy. it is no surprise, poppy, that china is blaming the u.s. for what took place. within hours of the incident, china's defense minister accused the u.s. of provication and creating chaos in the region. a short time ago we heard from the chinese ministry of foreign affairs. let me read to you some of what

was said. he said the truth is that united states is provoking trouble first. in china is dealing with it in accordance with rules and regulations. the actions taken by the chinese military and necessary measures to deal with the provocations of certain countries and they are reasonable, legal, safe, and professional. poppy, some analysts believe it is the first time that such a close encounter has occurred during a u.s. navy transit of the taiwan straight. you know, as we know, taiwan is a very sensitive bilateral issue for the united states and china. it is the most dangerous potential military flash point. the backdrop to all this was the annual dialogue in singapore where it was hoped that the u.s. defense secretary and his chinese counterpart would meet and perhaps ease ricsing

tensions. an awkward hand shake is as good as it got. lloyd austin had firm words for china saying that washington would not accept coercion and bullying of allies and partners and cautioned the chinese military against, quote, unprofessional intercepts by warplanes in the south china sea following that encounter just a few weeks ago. but despite all this, poppy, you know, the biden administration remains hopeful that there will be a meeting of minds between the two countries and that president biden and president ping will meet in the future. >> that was interesting. after this nonmeeting just that awkward hand shake that happened between defense attorney lloyd austin and his chinese counterpart, the fact that jake sullivan said that xi ping and biden will meet. we just don't know when. we'll watch closely. thank you. more to come here. we're just hours away from a big announcement from apple. what they plan to unveil today
