6:02 am
the, as the g 7, we have the site adhere to the clean post part, their sections and measures on the uranium, redeem mom and civilian life. at the same time, everything must be done to prevent that escalation with unforeseeable consequences for an entire region. so and again, so the united states, these rails ball cabinets has been debating its responds to a large scale, the reigning attack last weekend. that came of the israel presumed strike albany rainy and diplomatic compound, but its hope friday mornings min knew this could be the last of to, to run indicated. it has no plans, retaliation. dw washington correspondent benjamin alvarez. goober has more on what the biden ministration is saying. about the ron explosions. what us officials have been saying is, is that it was and is really missile strike the haiti of ron,

6:04 am
very interesting in this case because many republicans are increasingly reluctant to provide additional funding a to keep even call a full of the party calls from within the party to i was the speaker of the house over the supplemental r a growing. and the fact that mike johnson, in this case, will need democratic votes to get the $95000000000.00 for an agent on. bill's past is highly unusual in the deeply polarized house of representatives. so it is a crucial vote as ukraine. it will need this to defend itself against the russian aggression and also considering that the white house has been lobbying and has been pressing the congress for months now to get this package. finally approved, was you said there were seen some consensus among mainstream politicians but the same time for right republicans like major retailer green or already threatening to hours for public and how speaker johnson over these votes. so the question is, can you hang onto his job to that's a good question and the republican lawmakers that you just mentioned,

6:10 am
the russian war machine is set to be struggling to replace its losses. and all this believe that big changes in the conflict around likely in the coming months. a settlement i've got nicholas, generally speaking, the russian strategy at the moment is to drag out. but fighting until november. we've slow advances to show that west of russia will not suppose it's offensive, that it will advance further in november, which you will see who becomes with next us presidents and will then begin to plan what it does next. what that all started. so he said the shape last until then, russia is expected to continue it's long rank strikes in frontal assaults, with southern casualties and ukrainian cities. and i'm on its own soldiers. 11 most car company tesla has issued a recall for all of its cyber truck electric pickup trucks because of its accelerator pedal, which can get stuck down. cyber truck owners reported that the pad covering the
