And good morning on a Saturday.

Bill Handel here as we begin the local show.

First of all, I want to point out, you know, the heartbreaker that's going on in Ukraine.

Every minute I can, I watch the news and the constant pounding of civilian targets keeps on going and going.

I mean, it's just Putin calls it genocide, but Ukrainians committing genocide against the Russian-speaking peoples of East Ukraine.

In the meantime, I don't know if they're even bothering about military targets.

Yeah, they are, but it's mainly civilian targets that are being hit.

And it is brutal.

Maripole is about to fall.

Kiev, they haven't gotten yet.

And then the rally that Putin had in Moscow at the biggest stadium there

saying he's so proud of the Russian soldiers that in fact the attack the special

military actions the way he calls it won't call it an invasion won't call it a war

that's going on as planned exactly as planned as far as the civilian targets

are concerned there are no civilian targets.

Not only are they not being targeted, they're not being hit.

It's all made up.

It's all fake news.

My favorite one is the attack on that theater in Maripole that was turned into a bomb shelter, turned into a shelter.

A thousand people were in that building, and they bomb shelter, turned into a shelter.

Thousand people were in that building and they're still trying to get people out and they're having a difficult time.

That one Putin was a little bit different about.
