for our crew makes the rest of the way on thoughts sprinting across every open space. we are the 1st team of john lists to access and film these positions to come from here, the enemies no more than 400 meters away. finches with edges, once as tool as an adult man have hopelessly crumbled. nature weapons schedule around us, along with the bodies of ukrainian troops, abandoned by fleeing comb rates. the titles opportunity if it isn't, and in the american launcher of the mines that have passed and bypassed on the way here they are. all nathan made there is, there is a skeleton, the bones

a little bit higher there with these endodontics, another ukranian cluster munitions bones to the sky towards neighboring positions. a new day rolls on, revealing the harrowing scale of devastation. so just a couple of words about the density of the slicing here. and really the landscape speaks for itself. you can see the trees or rather what's the left of them full around me. this used to be a very sick pine forest. you wouldn't tell right now. the treetops have been shaven off by the hail of scrap po from pretty much every around imaginable. artillery will hold calibus tanks. pretty much every heavy weapon that you can imagine will most. they fight at this position. there's drones shortage salt a few weeks ago, provides a smooth glimpse into how for washer slee,

this chrome hold had been smashed for months, leaving nothing but scorched and black and free stumps. by driving cubic foot poseida. here, russian forces have edged closer to several enemies. key logistical points right on the edge of this woodland upward. we approached the river which also borders the town of bella, golf cart, which is on the other side. we are advancing to kind of the enemy so that we can target them so that we can get close enough bite road to cut off the ammunition and then we re supply trucks. those sides are regrouping now. ukrainians, hastily reinforcing their new defense lines as russia is replenishing, it's a suicide for us to resume the push shortly. i mean, this done of reporting from the don't pass out. see american made drones are too expensive and difficult to operate on the battlefield. a new crime that's according

to a former us navy intelligence officer quoted by the. busy street journal, he says washington simply doesn't produce the cheap and simple drones that can actually needs. the u. s. defense tech firms have spent months testing their drones and ukraine, but some now leave their drones in storage because they couldn't perform perfectly a new cranes, harsh battlefields conditions. they're too expensive to deploy at scale. u. s. companies don't mass produce the cheap expendable drones ukrainian troops need their advance drones start at around $16000.00. international consultants, earle rasmussen echoed the idea adding that the production of drones suitable for ukraine is of no benefits for the us. the ukraine has no chance to win this past, but 0 and for long it really is a few minutes harry and crisis, so many. so there's a big need for drones. us just doesn't make drones to that. a lot of our drone

development was all done during the occupation and interact him as well as the chemist in use. and then those 10 types conditions. that's not necessarily what ukraine means. so you, you're really looking at a complete new redesign that would be necessary and, and i, i just don't see the, the desire within the public or within corporations. and probably not within the government the other than the, the state department and the white house to put the investment in the costs that that would be required and provide the production line provide the, the scale of the capability that would be required and necessary. they're not gonna see a profit margin that they similar to what they get with the other drones as well. sorry to say this, but it, but more in a lot of ways is a money making a opportunities to pakistan is marketing. it's a 76th anniversary of independence from british colonial rule. fireworks lit up the

skies of many pakistani cities overnight with concerts and a series of a culture. all dance and full swing celebrations are continuing on monday with the main ceremony in a summer bod, including a $31.00 at congress salute phase facilities included the swearing in of the newly appointed caretaker prime minister, who's administration will oversee pakistan until general elections can be held in the next 3 months. all right, let's cross now to full of hassan for wad former special secretary to former prime minister. no. was sharif, great to have you on the program with us a new care take our prime minister and freedom collaboration are being celebrated. talk to us about how significant the stay is for pakistan, a good evening. they should then thank you for having me on your program. well as a, as, as, as the day that brought us into this world as an independent nation. this is

a very significant do fox style and particularly so when we are going to a very critical phase of fox stands of present history. so it's, it's a, it's a very important we have been going through some tough economic situations, partly because of the globe institution. and also partly because of some of the things that we have done. now since the use of the guys we did this chapter into our 76 here to existence, i think that we still have a great potential as a country. we have our challenges, there is absolutely no doubt about that. and when can found them. but when you look at the protection of this nation, but 250000000, a population in boston majority of which is you and a vast majority of which is a gain i t a name to which is looking forward to jump into the modern word one can not stop, it's himself from being locked

a mistake and looking forward to the time. well, what results would you say have been achieved? and how would you describe the countries decades of independence when the, you know, if you go to the history of bucks on bucks, done, started off competitively, much better in combat is into southern nations in the region. and by the late sixty's, they cost to the 1st 2 decades. we would significantly, i heard from the other nation that the region and doing well because of, with just one problem that why there was we cannot make advancement of the distribution of wealth. we would not really good at that and that created a kind of credit divide in the society. they could all make all the tasks divide of a they each was able to capture most stuff uh uh, most of the fruits of the progress. and that's brought in

a change in the shape of mr. the got a duplicate of who was selected either in the 19 or the 19 seventy's. but before that bux, i'm renting towards would india? uh, the neighborhood of good richard type, very different country nations from the 1st date, even the division it says spend it happened in 1947 under the uh, branch it british control. uh, we'll talk to the fair a and a lot of things. and a lot of, uh, money that would have come to backs done was not allowed to come to back stand at that point in time. but still after the 1st due date that gets bucks done was going my much back to the india. but after the 2nd war of a bunch of bucks done. uh, maybe the east fax done. uh, came up as an independent country and the remaining bucks done then progress

towards its own under the democratic government, led by mr. but. uh huh. the, the customer. right, right. uh say the celebration is that are taking place today. do you see an echo of that past colonial rule, and what would you say are the, the main challenges facing pakistan since the british departure? what are the challenges that box fischbach started today out, entirely different from the challenges that face boxed on at the time of its independence. i think they've got at that time, it was going to be an exist spencer challenge. but today, you know, boxed on has its challenges, but as i said, it has great potential also. uh, just look at the you that is available to box stuff just to get the fact that it's boxed on uh has uh just the video quite the exports and does speak today. a way they know they shot more than 150. and in the even more than double up in front of

that sense. so the potential that bucks time has if you compare that with the challenges that facebook started today because of a global economy, that sparks down is very, very, a very, very much into i think those challenges are much less than the challenges that face test at the time that bucks them became independent, but then did our solution and economic challenges that the have to deep enough sense. and unfortunately that is one area on which we have not really done very well. all right, we're going to leave it there for now for was hassan for lot former specialist secretary to former prime minister and allies. sharif. thank you. thank you. thank you. india is also celebrating its independence on tuesday. new delhi is car being its own pass, and the sting rules on the global arms arena, that's according to indian mph has shaped the roar in

interest. i didn't think that's in getting governments with a lot of except we use in 76 years since independence. and i can assure you that they would be absolutely no tolerance for playing anybody else's big if the rest of selling ourselves. that's because that's good business for them. and of course it happens to coincide with some of the ad geostrategic objectives. either way of buying those items, just because we need to not because we are willing to pay anybody else is that the truth is that we are and the different those situations. all principal, i'm suppliers itself running shorts or weapon rates because of its water ukraine. oh, we have to diversify shows and we go to the us. they've done to from script and is ropes. and this is not surprising. we'd also turn on true to other countries that used to be in the soviet. all of it's not my spare parts for some of the russian ribbon, are you still huge? the death toll has risen at 241 as heavy rains. rick havoc and the image all
