have no nationality and a told a everyone has the right. everyone has the right to say ah, ah ah, business d w, news live from berlin, the u. s. releases video of the black sea drone incident. the video shows a russian fighter jet flying very close to an unmanned american drone and dumping jet fuel on it. drone later crashed. also the show. poland

12:02 am
proximity without appearing to cause any damage to the drone. but washington says the jet did collide with the drones propeller on a 2nd pass. and that pass is also shown here, with actual collision isn't visible in the editor at video released by the pentagon . although damage to the propeller can be seen later. after the picture is re established right there and we earlier, we spoke with military analyst frank leverage and asked him what stood out from the video. the 1st thing that's flagrantly obvious is that this was a deliberate action by the russian fighters. it seems that they were in the vicinity for more than half an hour, and that would indicate as well that there was some element of permission or did command to this 2nd thing is by dumping fuel as you see there on the screen. now
12:03 am
that so the intention there is to blind blind to the instruments on the, on the drug on the re pedro as it, as it does, and also clearly to disable it. and the past was so close as you've already pointed out, that it did disable the drone. and i suspect the combination of those 2 things, the fuel being dumped on it. we're talking here a ton of fuel or more being released. there are other drone flying into it and the damage the engine and the turbulence that drove the drone into the water. i think it was a deliberate decision actually took to crush it. poland is set to become the 1st natal member to supply fighter jets to ukraine will deliver at least 4 fully operational soviet era. make 20 nines in the coming days, polish president and re did and said additional aircraft would be supplied later after a maintenance check. ukraine has repeatedly urge western partners to send warplanes

12:05 am
we were sort of at this stage before months ago with poland being very willing to send its fleet of megs, in fact, the whole fleet at that time to ukraine. but it wanted to send them through ramstein air base and thereby make it sort of a u. s. transfer. and then it fell apart. so this isn't entirely unexpected that it comes back to poland sending mig, but we did, we certainly didn't know to expect it. this week or today, or let's take a look at some of the stories making headlines around the world. iranian activists, a pd, guardian, has been detained again, just hours after she walked free from prison without wearing a headscarf. enchanting slogans against these lamp republic. gillian spent 2 years in prison after reporting on union protests and has become a strong voice against the abuses. she says female prisoners subjected to in iran. lawyers for the senegalese opposition leader. man sancho of welcomed
