the little bit. and germans are worried about their economy and that could have knock on the facts for the fortunes of political parties who stands to gain or lose from the countries altering outlook. the hello m. terry martin. good to have you with us. since russia launched this war on ukraine chief has been pushing its western allies to supply ever more advanced military equipment. but in a video address on thursday night, ukrainian president belonged to me as lensky boasted of what could be a game changer. long range weapon made a new crane, which lensky claims has hit a target 700 kilometers away. while the president rarely comments on ukrainian attacks inside russia, he appeared to allude to
3:02 pm
a devastating strike earlier this week. or you tack damaged several military transport planes in the western region. the bas golf are roughly 700 kilometers away from the ukranian border weapon. with that range could potentially put moscow within striking distance. raising the stakes as keep tries to bring the war home to russians. so what kind of weapon could kids have up to sleep? i put that question to military analyst marina, and they're on, well, it could be a drone. so there are a couple of weapons that would come in question. the 1st one is being the u. j. 22 drain, which is a long range drive in which has been allegedly used on this on the strikes was in moscow. the 2nd row in is the so called be withdrawing, which has even a longer range, so it's up to 1000 kilometers. so there are 2 to potential candidates,
3:03 pm
and then there is a search driving which experts try to identify in the strikes on moscow. however, little is known about that through a drone, but we already have 2 good options which would fit the descriptor when russia, of course, is continuing to bombard ukrainian. you ukraine with heading targets all over the country. how is ukraine under these conditions able to develop sophisticated weapons as well? it is difficult for ukraine to do so, and it is indeed a miracle does. the russians still haven't found the factories, whereas those drugs are being produced. apparently as a b with writing has been in design for several years, but it hasn't been used until the russian invasion of ukraine. now the one thing would be operation security, which is very good. the other thing would be probably there is some support when it comes to, to drive and design as well as spare parts needed to make so straightens. so we,
3:04 pm
we really don't know, but it could be that in ukraine is getting some support when it comes to development. and when it comes to production of such drains, the cranes military intelligence chief is claiming that the attack on call so far into russian territory was actually carried out from russian territory. what do you make of the, as well, would have to understand that this were also has an informational dimension. and i think, given the political city ation after the attack, the russian side has claimed that the west was involved in helping ukraine to conduct that attack. specifically, the baltic states, which would have been used as a launch platform for the driver. and therefore, it might be a way to confuse the russians and to take responsibility away from any supporters
3:05 pm
of ukraine. this is why it's important to say ukraine has the capability it has its own drones ukrainian made the west has nothing to do with that. and the attacks have been launched either from the board during regents or from russia to lead russia astray because the ukrainian side, obviously doesn't want to give out the launch positions from where it would be launching the threatens to strike the russians. because it's easy for the russians, because on the reverse engineer it's on track where is that you creating and sort of launching the threats from and then turn on their electronic warfare systems. how you cream, scored some success there in destroying those russian transport planes in call. do you think we'll see more of that moving forward as it is a possibility, given the price of drones, they're much cheaper than using missiles. ukraine doesn't have any long range missiles or at least those that would fit to bill,
3:06 pm
therefore is the use of drones is both efficient. it doesn't risk the loss of human life from the ukraine inside. it also removes and your responsibility from the western backers, because you are a ukrainian may drones i used according to ukrainian sources, that it is much cheaper than um, sending something like a storm shuttle missile, which would cost $3000000.00 us dollars was a potential political fallout so i think given the fact that the comprehensive is going slow leak, we might be seeing more attacks like that are in the thank you very much. that was marina me. wrong with kings called each one. thank you for having me now to central africa and the african union has suspended gab bones. membership after military officers seized power on wednesday, the military has closed the boarders and name the chief of the republican guard. as
