It shows a tiny spider jet flying directly in front of the nose of a u.s. reconnaissance plane over the south china sea on saturday. i want to go right to nbc pentagon correspondent, courtney kube. i know this isn t the first time something like this has happened, but what more are we learning about this latest incident? reporter: interaction between various military planes over the south china sea is not new. aggressive maneuvers like we re seeing on the video, that is pretty uncommon. it s what the military calls an intercept. a couple of aircraft will fly near one another, talk to one another, check each other out, and generally they go about their day. but in this case, the reason that the u.s. officials are calling this aggressive and dangerous is because what we re seeing right there, that chinese jet flew so close to the u.s. aircraft that the u.s. surveillance plane actually had to fly through its wake. that s why you see the plane sort of bounce there a little bit. as you mentioned, chris, it also
Being out week. senior by demonstration official says the white house wants to move beyond the tensions from the chinese spy ballou flew across the continental u.s. just a few months ago. the u.s. state department held back on issuing human rights relation sanctions to avoid damaging the fragile relationship with china. national security military analyst doctor rebecca grant joins as president of independent research. doctor grant great to see you. how is he biden administration navigating the relations with beijing? would they achieve any thought perhaps? the big news in china actually showed up for these talks. they also met with our new ambassador there. ever since pelosi s visit last summer china is not showing up, not answering the telephone with military calls.
Wing the military tends to look at the commanders, the command climate they have settle, and so i expect that over course of the next several weeks and months, we ll learn about more held accountable, even if they weren t directly responsible for the leaks. likely to be people who worked in the unit or could it go beyond that commander, so, yeah, the leaders of the military unit are responsible for setting what the military calls the command climate. they re responsible for teaching the subordinates in their units, how critical it is to safeguard classified information we often see that when there is some sort of a wrong doing that occurs in a unit that the commanders, the leadership there are held accountable in some way, certainly not in the way we see jack teixeira being arrested, but more in the form of reprimands, that s the thing we expect to hear in the course of the next days and months.
Russia's T-14 Armata battle tanks have been deployed in the ongoing war with Ukraine, with reports indicating that the crews have undergone combat coordination training and the tanks have been fitted with extra protection, although concerns about their reliability remain.
Eight working with the u.s. military, the process is pretty refined. it is find, fix and look at your target and know what you are shooting at pier there is an imperative for doing that and we don t want to shoot things we don t know enough about but i would highlight all s well so there is an economic imperative here appear the citizens want to be enjoying their air travel in the skies and if things are being targeted and what the military calls the near space domain, that could have very serious ramifications for our air travel. and that is why the administration needs to be more transparent about what is going on. neil: i m glad you mentioned that, dan we are old enough to remember when commercial jets happen and shot down in individual cases or maybe not, but it gets to the left and anything could have happened. yeah, it could.
Chinese have gotten some intelligence that there s some sort of live feed going on. we don t know its capacity. this was an aggressive posture by the chinese. it is not at all clear. they re trying to deescalate this. we should let them deescalate it. look, the chinese/u.s. relationship is going to have a lot of hot moments. it is incumbent on the united states to do everything it can so that those hot moments, what the military calls kinetic action, do not happen on u.s. soil. whatever happens offshore is better for u.s. citizens and, of course, for the u.s. you really are underscoring the importance of patience when you say giving china the leeway
Them talking. we could hear them cooking their food and chopping their wood to build their shelters. laundrie s military calls on is nikki. that is what the military units under his command must be. getting spotted here in the campaign to capture kherson is nearly fatal. but they make off with a trove of stolen documents and russian technology, all leading to moments like this. the obliteration of a russian command center and the surrender of a russian senior sergeant, a paratrooper abandoned by his comrades in retreat. russian take the captain is that him? no. he tells them that he has
Third that this ends up a strategic failure for russia. this is not a personalized policy, this is not about president putin this is about ensuring that russia fails in its objective of trying to dominate and subrogate ukraine. in severodonetsk our reporting is its about 70% of russian control, the expectation is that it could fall soon to the russians. what the impact of that? so i m not going to get into the sort of incremental gains and losses that are going to take place in this phase of the conflict. we expect that that is how this is going to play out over a period of weeks and months and perhaps even longer. this is going to be a difficult phase of fighting. these are pitched battles, very heavy on artillery and other what the military calls indirect fire, high rates of casualties on both sides. our objectives is to get the ukrainians exactly the material they need to be able to stay in this fight and to be able to take the fight to the russians
