SUCCESSFULLY TARGETED BY THE RUSSIANS. >> CLINT, WALK US THROUGH — IT’S OBVIOUSLY STILL A STALLED GROUND OPERATION. THIS IS NOW — IT SEEMS AS IF THEY’RE TRYING TO LAY SIEGE TO SOME OF THESE CITIES. START WITH MARIUPOL. CAN YOU DISCERN THEIR MILITARY STRATEGY HERE? >> YEAH, CHUCK. I Recollect THIS IS REALLY INDYK TICH OF WHAT WE’LL SEE THE REST OF THE WAY OUT. WARFARE, THEY’RE TRYING TO CUT OFF EACH OF THESE CITIES, PARTICULARLY MARIUPOL WHERE THEY HAVE LAID SIEGE WITH USING INDIRECT FIRES FROM ARTILLERY, CRUISE MISSILE STRIKES LIKE WE SAW. THAT IS ESSENTIALLY WHAT I THINK WE’LL SEE THE REST OF THE WAY, PARTICULARLY IN THE EAST. THIS FOOTAGE IS CLEARLY NOT A MIRACLE TARGET THEY HIT YESTERDAY WITH THAT SCHOOL. JUST IN TERMS OF THE TERROR THEY’RE TRYING TO INFLICT HERE, ACROSS THE BOARD THEY’RE HITTING EVERY TARGET, CIVILIAN TARGETS, REMOVING UKRAINIAN LEEMDERS. THAT STORY YOU HEARD FROM RICHARD ABOUT A UKRAINIAN OFFICIAL B ESSENTIALLY BEING EXECUTED, IF YOU COME DOWN TO THE SOUTH, AND I Picture THIS IS WHERE WE PLAY INTO THE BIGGER PICTURE HERE, THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF THIS, PARTICULARLY IN KHERSON.THAT’S A PLACE THEY’VE TRIED TO SET UP A STATELET, ESSENTIALLY LIKE DONBAS IN THIS REGION AND SAY THIS WILL BE AN INDEPENDENT STATE. THEY’VE Introduce IN THEIR OWN MAYOR. MOST IMPORTANTLY, THEY EACH STARTED TO TAKE OVER THE TV STATIONS AND RADIO STATIONS THERE. THEY Require TO TAKE OVER THE COMMUNICATION. BIG PICTURE, THOUGH, THE RUSSIANS ARE IN TROUBLE. THIS Advancement Yesterday, IF YOU READ THE “WALL STREET JOURNAL” AND THIS ACCOUNT, OUTSIDE OF HERE, IT IS CRAZY. THEY LOST AN ENTIRE BATTALION TACTICAL GROUP, ABOUT 100 DEAD SOLDIERS IN ONE BATTLE. >> ONE BATTLE. >> THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY A UKRAINIAN STRONGHOLD. THIS IS A SMALL UKRAINIAN FORCE. THIS IS A Territory Justification Coerce. THIS IS A TOWN DEFENDING ITSELF, REMARKABLE, REMARKABLE WHAT THEY’VE BEEN ABLE TO DO. >> Basically GUERRILLA WARFARE. >> YEAH. THIS IS WHERE IT COMES TO THE Artilleries. WHEN YOU Glance AT THIS, THOUGH, BIG PICTURE, WHERE WOULD THEY GO OVER TIME OR HOW MIGHT THIS END, WE’VE TALKED ABOUT THE IDEA THEY COULD TAKE THE SOUTH. THE RUSSIANS ARE DOING RESUPPLY IN PLACES HERE ON THIS SEA OF AZOV. YOU SEE THEM PULLING IN SHIPS.NOW THEY’RE DOING LOGISTICS. THEY’RE Use Railways. THIS MIGHT BE AN AREA WHERE THEY TRY TO SETTLE ON IF THEY CAN’T TAKE ANYTHING ELSE. I Foresee THE OTHER PART WE’RE SEEING IS REPORTS OF RUSSIAN NAVY OUT HERE IN THE BLACK SEA AIMING FOR ODESA, BUT THEY CAN’T DO THAT UNLESS THEY CAN REALLY EXTEND AND ESSENTIALLY CUT OFF ODESA FROM THE NORTH. OTHERWISE THEY’LL ALWAYS BE DEALING WITH UKRAINIAN RESUPPLYING. >> CLINT, I HAVE A SOURCE THAT INDICATED ODESA MORE VULNERABLE ON LAND THAN AT SEA. >> IT IS. FROM SEA — I MEAN, THE CITY BACKS RIGHT UP. I Recall WE HAVE A PICTURE OF IT HERE. THE CITY BACKS RIGHT UP TO — LET ME SEE IF I CAN BREAK OUT — IT BACKS RIGHT UP TO THE SEA AS YOU CAN SEE. AND SO ANYTHING THAT’S COMING IN NAVAL, ANYTHING COMING IN BY WATER, THIS WILL LIKELY BE MINED SO THEY CAN’T APPROACH VERY AGGRESSIVE AGGRESSIVELY.FROM THE LAND THEY CAN GET CUT OFF AND BE ENCIRCLED SKROEFROVER I DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW OVER TIME IF YOU LOOK AT ANY OF THE PLACES THE RUSSIANS CONTROL HERE THEY CAN SUSTAIN THIS. THEY’RE ATTACKING ON TOO MANY FRONTS. THEIR LOGISTICS ARE TERRIBLE. AND THE LAST PART IS THE WEAPONS. THESE TWO Artilleries ALONE, THIS IS THE JAVELIN ON THE LEFT, THIS IS THE STINGER ON THE RIGHT, TANKS AND AIRCRAFT, IF THEY COME IN TOO LOW, THEY’RE BEING SHOT.
