All right, Alexander, let's talk about the military situation in Ukraine, and perhaps let's start

things off with the drones, the drones that continue to be launched from the Ukraine

military into the Russian Federation, including drones that target Moscow.

We did have the Russians retaliate for about a two, two, three day period.

They retaliated with drones as well as missile strikes into Ukraine.

But recently the drones continue to go from Ukraine into Russia in the hundreds, but now it looks

like Russia has decided not to retaliate to those drone attacks.

We even had drones, a drone swarm allegedly target or threaten the helicopter of the Russian

president on its way to Kursk.

Anyway, your thoughts on the drones.

Let's talk about the drones.

And then maybe you can give an update on the actual situation on the front lines.

Can I just say this report, which we've had from the Russian media,

and not just the Russian media, but from Russian officials, including military

officials, I mean, that Putin's helicopter found itself at what they said was an epicenter

of a Ukrainian drone swarm. It has not received anything like the kind of publicity and indeed

explanation that it deserves. I mean, what was that? Was that an

attempt to assassinate Putin? Because some of the reports imply this, or was it just that Putin

was flying into Kuzk and there were all those Ukrainian drones and it was all coincidence,

which seems unlikely actually,

at least to me.

I mean, that was an extraordinary thing.
