the, the glass skyscrapers of mosque as business district where one spilled to show rushes integration into the global financial markets. today they showed precious vulnerability. this high rise in the hearts of the russian capital was hit by a drone for the 2nd time. and only 2 days, and while the kremlin points the finger towards keith, ukraine is not officially admitted responsibility for the strikes over the weekend . president zalinski noted that's the war was gradually coming back to russian territory. and one of his aides warned of more unidentified drones, more collapse, more civil conflicts, and more war on the call for the him, berlin. and this is the day the is because she's worried. i'm not scared, but i am worried. it was like

a mosquito bites. i feel safe. i'm from jeanette. so this is a minor incident. any place can be hit so it's hard to feel a 100 percent safe. barely. this wasn't the 1st one or the last. if you adjust your as the 2 to be fine. but all of this is quite disgusting. also on the day, america's epidemic of school shootings. nowhere are they more common. and then the state of texas kind of new state law requiring schools to become more like fortresses be part of the solution. we're playing russian roulette. i think it's only a matter of time. i don't think that the safety measures we have in place are enough to prevent something from happening. welcome to the show. certainly does sound like a warning advisor, so you cranes, presidents say more war is coming to russia. this falls and another day of drones

drives on central la scale and retaliatory drones strikes on the printing and city of car keys. and what russia i called and attempted ukrainian terrorist attack a building in moscow that houses several ministries was struck by a drone. for the 2nd time in 3 days. the facade of the glass tower was damaged, but no casualties were reported. russia accuses ukraine of carrying out the drone attack. ukraine did not claim responsibility will, in a separate incident. russian drones attack the city of her keys in ukraine. one drone struck a dorm at an educational institution and partially destroyed, more drones damage of building and a sports facility. and another part of the city. the buildings were empty at the time of the strikes are can see and is from the center for strategic and international studies. and he joins me now from arlington, virginia, and he's also a former us marine colonel and has written extensively on military strategy. such

a pleasure to welcome you back on the show that ukraine's president zalinski said the weekend that the war was coming to rush. or do you think that we have seen in the last couple of days can be interpreted as a turning point, and you are in the military strategy, or is this mind games? so i think it's, it's mostly mind games. it's not a turning point in moultrie strategy. deep ratings have struck russia and moscow in the past. it looks like they're stepping it up. maybe they've been able to produce more of the drones that can reach moscow. i think they're sending a message to russia that their capital, their cities will not be safe if the cleaning cities are not safe at this, probably an element of vengeance in it. but these are pin pricks. it's all psychological. it's not going to change the course of the war. the war is going to be decided on the ground, on the battlefield, with the ukrainian counter offensive. now, what could potentially change the force of the war would be

a decisive response to these kinds of attacks by a rush of something that they have pledged that ukraine is going to see. they have said so repeatedly. we haven't seen anything of the legs, but is there a danger that these drones drives could lead to an even greater escalation of the war? possibly in the form of tactical nuclear weapons? even i think nuclear weapons are extremely unlikely. russia has put down a red line saying that there would be no invasion of russian territory, but these kinds of dried attacks clearly don't count as an invasion if the ukrainians tried to push their troops over the border and capture some russian cities. i think that would be much more dangerous. i think you're going to see more of this battle of the cities. we saw that for example, in the run iraq or you, we saw it in 2nd world war. one side attacks one sided, the other side, cities,

the other side res bonds by attacking the 1st side cities. i think you're that dynamic may go on. we're always talking about ukrainian drones and ukraine has promised to only use the modern western weapons that have been put at its disposal to defend its own territory. what would happen, though, if it used them to strike in russia? well, it's possible that the russians would try to escalate, but i doubt that that would be the case. i think the united states and nato have been pretty firm with is a landscape that they don't want these weapons use that way. and i think it's so lensky, overturn that trust? it would be a serious discussion between the countries. no one united states have allowed crane to use these weapons to attack crimea, which they don't regard as part of russia. we saw the sky storm attack bridges, for example,

in greenville. let's look at the counter offensive because that is of course, still going on. ukraine has now deployed reserve troops. what does that tell us about the state of affairs? that's what kind of offensive is not going as well as had been hoped. we're almost 2 months into it and the cleanings are still in the russian defensive zone. they have not broken through last week. it looked like they might have been able to do that, but they were, they were pushed back to the ukrainians or bringing in their probably their last set of fresh troops in order to try to get a breakthrough. the good news is that they have not common data to use a military turn. they have not run out of steam, they're still moving forward, they're still attacking, and it's possible that they could achieve a significant his success. still, how decisive will the coming month be for that the month before winter arrived. every phase of the war is decisive in its own way. the next month or 2 are going to

be important because we'll see how the granite counter offensive comes out. it's unlikely ukrainians can go more than one or 2 more months offensive like this run out of steam, the troops get tired, the equipment gets a trade, it gets damaged if the ukrainians are still hung up in the russian defensive zone, and you'll see a lot more talk about the go see ations about an armistice and that will be very discouraging. i think to support us in the west that you created to have made more progress. that was more i can see it always great to get your point of view. thank you. so much for your time. thanks for having me on the show. meantime, ukraine is scrambling to keep its military supply, not least with soldiers, a year and a half after russia's invasion is believed. well over 10000 ukranian troops have been killed and far more wounded. if your volunteers are signing up, leaving conscripts to fill the ranks,

training can be brief even when preparing for some of the most dangerous operations as dw as much he has spinning a report or what's right. these ukranian recruit and learning as fast as they can. they've had less than a few months of basic training. now they using all the time, they have to learn how to store and attractions soon they're likely to be doing it for you. even though many have only been in the army for a few weeks. not long ago, nightingale, that's his goal. assign was living in his village for conditioning this but of course i don't think we're well trained to run this. there's a reason why soldiers in the army don't just serve 2 months. of course we need more training or shot but we're in a situation where a lot has broken down really was we need to be fast to replenish it. there is no

time, it's to go, go, go. but for the order of storming and clearing the trenches is not only one of the most important operations . it is also one of the most dangerous the weird among the soldiers is that the biggest challenge is to survive the 1st time. and that's fairly anybody survives more than 3 and i was at the front all ready to show it. we cleared the enemy's trenches and a small grove is terrifying. for, for the best i'm gonna do you try to hide among the trees while you are just being sailed constantly from motors met them with but like get away. there is no

official c, gus, which you can tell casualties a high by the d month and usages the unit these men with join is fighting just over 20 because i'm it is a weight and your buffalo soldiers are constantly rotating in our position to have some of these instructors pull from the front line to work for a while, i was a part of the stream full time after being in just show the nuances to is america. for that, of course, there are differences between mobilized recruits and soldiers who served $56.00, or even only 3 years. it was easier with them. we did not have to spend so much time on the basics of awful, but i still don't think the level of preparedness has drawn, which we have more experience commanders now who can prepare the recruits even when they stop running, the tension remain. they all know the code to the front can come any time the,

the german armies maker alignments our lives to build a new factory to manufacturer parts for the us. f $35.00 fighter jet sections of the fuselage for more than $400.00 aircraft will be produced under me. from 2025. berlin is buying $35.00 of the aircraft from a special fun set up to boost the german armed forces following the invasion of ukraine. and we can take a closer look at all of this now in 2 months because he's a journalist, focus on defense and security policy and joins. we found berlin, good to see you again. the german government ordered several 1000000000. yours worth of f 35. last year, how much does a deal to produce parts have to do with that? as well as how many are the only $35.00 of these a craft? and if she was a loss which would be produced in germany, you bet it's meant to be more than $400.00 pieces. so it's much more,

but you are right. if germany, you had no drawing. this rowing intern nestled s 35 coalition. most probably the us companies will not have come to germany. what role has the f 35 played since russia invaded ukraine? well, obviously not be spelled sloppy, attack roll of it. it's not used incumbent in europe, but some of the, any european countries are you living if you have 35? alrighty. and uh they had been flying in half policing missions in the baltics for instance. so they have used to sick notes, gathering capabilities, to which added up to the common to recognize, have picked on nato is running all the time throughout europe. mm hm. you said that there, it's all e, as in combat, and it's very unlikely we're going to see the f 35 in ukraine anytime soon. but

there are plenty of assignments hold products deployed in ukraine right now. the mind of the leopard. how much has 9, which had profited from the war as well? if you look at the shaft price slide, machado has profited tremendously. they have a lot of contracts, they have all the products which i'm hired, you mind, which is not only tang apc's and things like that. but most the munition by mid title is the biggest, municipal producer, at least in germany, maybe even in europe. so every thing or i'm, the title has to offer is highly sought after. and of course that means i'm, it is a very healthy business in these times. me healthy business that has been threatened by the russians for the support they're providing to ukraine. haven't they? not really, um, 12 years fred spy, rush, did not come fall the material which was from ryan baton and both sent to your

crate and from the germans. the threats of because alignment tire is planning to build. a common factory is a joint venture with ukraine and companies, so it's not the delivery of arms to ukraine. budget c, i d, are all the intend to produce unclear which has drawn the i r of russia. mm hm. but they were fairly unimpressed store and they, i want to look at the german government, sledging $100000000000.00 euros, and additional defense spending last year. part of that now goes to these f $35.00 . what's going to happen with the rest of the money as well? and the wrestlers is still allowed, tongue is going quite a lot in 12 i across the drum and you have auto toys planning to order. but loud transport helicopters from boeing, virginia, and in military and the expenses for aircraft and everything that flies on the most

expensive things. so a lot goes into the, the $75.00 to enter helicopters, but also into a modern digital communication. which is really a problem probably on the false as which say like they have old analog radio transmission and urgently need to, to upgrade it goes into a new wall ships which also need it. but part of it will, of course, go into a land systems of withdrawal. diamond tyler for one big drum and bake of the other one called small fi, which is producing belt pot tags. both those companies will absolutely profit from this special event. yeah, and germany really has a fair amount of catching up to do when it comes to come back preparedness as an analyst. do you believe they're going about building that capacity in the right, the fashion?

i think the going to do it within the right fashion. the problem is will they be able to do it in the necessary time at the moment that's a drum and defend spent is to put it in the past. our problem was that we had lots of time, but not enough money. no, we've got enough money by the end of the time, so they have to speed up savings. production has to be rammed up. this is applies especially to have munition to all the equipment as well to us be calling. thank you so much. you're welcome. thank you. or the united states has the most school shootings in the world by far, the publication education week counted 23 in the 1st half of this year, resulting in 13 people killed the violence at some us schools doesn't stop even during summer break. and the city of memphis, tennessee police shot and arrested

a man who tried to break into a do or school and fired several shots outside the building. no one but the shooter was injured. police say he was a former student at the school. stayed with the most school shootings this year of texas to address the governor has mandated extra armed guards and other safety measures. but some one texas to tighten its gun control laws to you know, we met with students in houston. i last year, last year i'm from e bay on caroline, who is here. my name is jayla. in houston, texas. we meet for high school students in active numbers of the march for our lives movement. a student led advocacy group all a good fighting for better dunbar. like many around the us, they have demands that they believe create a safe classroom environment. i would say if we were to do 3 wishes, the 1st part of those which is the universal background checks, raising the age of bar on purchase from $18.00 to $21.00. and i do the support

bathing assault rifles. not only are students with teachers are concerned, dallas, space arts teacher, katrina rasmussen, believes that current safety precautions are not enough. and without gun control, it's only a matter of time until the next school shooting that i feel like we're playing russian roulette. i think it's only a matter of time. i don't think that the safety measures we have in place are enough to prevent something from happening in the sense it's like security theater . in response, texas governor greg abbott signed a new security mandate law school state wide need to have an armed police officer on staff. they also need to add new infrastructure to slow down any potential intruder. we must establish the safest standards. we cannot that another school year go by without making our schools safe on the outskirts of dallas, several teams from

a nationwide window security film installation company are getting ready to integrate some of these measures. the company, c e o james b o explains what his company is doing for him. we demonstrate that not so right now we are installing, pressing the windows and installing dual functions, solar security film for, for century mitigation. right? so what we called delay. so we're trying to delay people entering all the windows is also part of the state mandate for the state of texas. supporters of the governors law believe that increasing security in an outside school campuses will help to prevent the next shooter bo seize his company as being a small but critical part of the solution. because at the end of the day with the data is their doors and glass doors are the weak spot in schools. and that's what's being breached. some of the students in houston still believed that governor abbot failed to meet the student's needs and has to re adjust his focus and create a safe environment. when you bring in the school board association measures that

make your school costal and really scary places to be either not safe, they're not, they don't feel safe, they don't feel comfortable. it doesn't bring comfort. hopefully, school shootings are a thing of the past, the sooner the better they all agree that time is on their side to bring real change to america when it comes to school safely. just in time z as in associate professor of health behavior and health education and co director of the national center for school safety at the university of michigan. welcome to the day, what do you make of the text and approach to school safety? so yeah, we work with schools around the united states and i feel like this is a common reaction to school shooting is using it is real investment in physical security, which i think intuitively is going to make building safer. but at least from a research perspective, to show perspective, there isn't a lot of data to support target hardening or physical security strategies as

a way to prevent school shootings. so i think these mitigation efforts while they could be effective. uh, we just don't know what we can say with a fair amount of certainty is the student at the end of the video mentioned the students notice when there are physical security might they noticed when you're cameras or metal detectors or arm security professionals. and that creates an environment that i'm not sure is conducive to learning. yeah. what does that do to young people to live in constant fear of becoming a victim of gun violence? i think it promotes a salient spoilers. they realize that there are these but of these measures in place and why they're noticing those sorts of security measures. they're not paying attention to their studies. they're reading, writing and arithmetic. we see was schools where there are a lot of physical security measures. there can be in the absence years oh,

there can be concerned about their safety. there can be cause some trauma experience when it's due to for example, have negative relationship with police officers or students who have experienced a firearm or gun balance in the past. are reminded that these things are possible and was sort of sad is when you look at school l. o for young people there, ashley pre said places to be yes, miles to the curb in school. but by and large, when you look at other environments, schools are generally the place. and i think that there is a risk when we only focus on some of those very visible security measures. and not doing some of the evidence based practices that we know can promote safer schools. and that would be things like promoting school climate, restorative practices, behavioral threat of the, the all have a nice body of literature and data to support their advocacy and actually preventing violence rather than some of these measures that yes,

they're very visible. yes, intuitively, they might make sense like creating up the goals with the class or detection measures, but we just don't know. they're actually going to be affected. yeah, there has been a dramatic spike in school shootings in recent years. is there an explanation to that? i wish i had an explanation for why we're seeing such an increase and you're right over the past 3 to 5 years. we've seen school shooting as an, as a rise from around 20 to 30 across the united states. the now over a 100 and the severity of, of the school, the shootings that we're seeing within school and creating well in terms of number of entries and fatalities. and i do not have that explanation. one of the most compounding things here is that other measures of violence, but in schools, and this would be things like physical fights or bullying behavior or students saying that they don't feel safe in schools over the past decade or 15 years. those

have been steadily increasing. so we have this very troublesome measure of violence that increasing while many of other indicators of violence in and around schools are decreasing. so a lot of our attention now is to think uh, just trying to think specifically about kind of balances particular and what is it about kind of balance and could be increasing. it is still a very rare event, thankfully within us schools. but it does happen that an increasing frequency means it needs more attention. yes, we only have about a minute left, but i do want to get into how to break the cycle. meaningful legislation doesn't seem to be an option right now. unfortunately. so what can be done as well for us, we do point to school programming. that does seem to work. we're thinking about schools and school safety a comprehensive way. so there's not a panacea. there's not just one program that's going to make school safe. we think schools need to be care combining multiple efforts and thinking about the whole

gamut of school safety. so these would be prevention activities. that can be things like identifying students that are at risk to begin with or to assessments. again, they're trying to engage students. we think about things that are happening at the time, i mean, and so what are some of those mitigation strategies like that were mentioning video where some of the things of the type of incident that could reduce the number of vendors that are happening. and then one thing that i think is really important in schools can sometimes overlook. are the recovery strategies. if a school has a serious violent event, how are we going to support those? what school community is moving forward and our job is to continue to develop the evidence based support as i think that was just in hinesville, the university of michigan. thank you so much. you're very unless or time, but make sure to stay in touch, follow our team on twitter at the news and myself, ethical underscore florida. the latest headlines you're looking for the, the lead comp is to replace the
