Good to see all of you. russia striking the ukrainian city of lviv fires at electrical stations and power outages across the city. why is russia attacking in the west when they said they are focussing on the east? only from discover. we definitely have ants in here. not for long.

Do is they want to go after all the supply roots that are coming in from the west. if you take a look where lviv is here next to the polish border 40 miles from the border. what the russians did was they attacked points to the east, the south and the west of lviv. so those areas cut roads and railroad lines and power stations associated with those facilities right there. so that makes the difference. so they want to keep the supplies from reaching the east, which is where as you pointed out the main fight is at the moment. didn t we have this conversation a couple weeks ago they would start doing that? yes, they did. that s what they re doing. the playbook is unfolding, at least parts of it are. we re getting a look at drone footage showing ukrainian forces knocking out a number of russian military vehicles near kharkiv.
