the hello and terry martin, thanks for joining us. russia says it's hip military targets inside ukraine in a missile attack targeting the capital key. officials there say at least one person was killed in the early morning attack, which involves ballistic missiles and drones brushes. defense industry says the strike was in response to an earlier ukrainian attack using western supplied missiles on the overall stall border region. moscow claims to have struck a command center belonging to ukraine's s b u intelligence agency. the w's corresponding to connelly in key told us more about the attack. it was going to be loud here on 7 o'clock local time. there was multiple explosions

. most of those are probably intercept themselves being launched from the heart of the city. so incredibly loud as those launch, those broken engines make a lot of noise and then thoughts in the distance we understand those insects. ukrainian say that they accepted all 5 of themselves. no 8. as early discussed previously, we had had reports that they were can you tell me so that is condemn cells. now a mutual cause is kinda messiah's one confirmed casualty so far. uh, but a lot of instructional supporting cause that was damaged to heating, infrastructure to power supplies, and some pretty strong pictures of kind of keeps getting ready for christmas in flames. historic church severely damaged, so it is a very kind of really reminder that russia, for all the fact that it's running down the supplies cancel, do this kind of attacks even if you credit leasing caves able to stop them. now ballistic missiles being used to attack key, but it's not very common. what more do we know about the targets of dismissal

attack? and why is that happening now of the will the russians, as you mentioned earlier, have a claim that this was somehow in return for ukraine attacks on military targets invest. the reason one of those was a factory kinda production sites just in the, the ukrainian or russian ford. another was a, an oil refinery. so those were kind of seemingly quite effective in text and you find inside the labels and get the russians. but attacking, even if they only talk to the middle of a city with me is people, it just doesn't add office kind of symmetrical response. so that is something that doesn't make sense. i think we're getting a sense that i'm, if we can really want to show the strength, he had a press conference yesterday where he basically made it clear that he's not gonna accept anything short of could be selection from your crime. and i think the rest of that just trying to intimidate your findings and kind of make a lot of difficult possible in the hope that they will the impression that leaders into giving put you on what you want. nick, thank you very much for an hour. correspond it, and it conway in t a spouse,

already said that they would appear uh they will have the incentives as of 8 years in prison entirely that don't happy with it. so we're still waiting to hear from she's out pretty cool from dominique clinic because he's of no ex husband who was the. * most of minds of the mosse, right that took place over 10 years at many here, at least the family is behind me, but also either to come out over the since the verdict was announced. this today are hoping that that will be an appeals a triad. mine you that try would be informed, jerry. so sentences could possibly be. * higher than those technologies today, this case has sent shock waves through french society. it's gotten tremendous attention. what would you say has changed if anything, as a result of this trial least as well. first of all is eltony goal really has become an icon of strength of resilience. lots of people i know mar and her for getting
