extraordinary scene, as you can imagine. actually, she said she and the rest of the tour group were shuffled away into shelter because apparently everybody thought there could be shooting involved, and that's what's happened in the not so distant past. we're talking about this young private. he has a rap sheet of at least three interactions with police officers just here in seoul, and he hasn't really been here that long. he only joined the military, even before he came to seoul, back in january 2021, so this is a young man who seems to have had quite a few interactions with the police. he was going to be going back to the united states where he was likely to be facing further discipline at the hands of the military and possibly a discharge. it seems he chose the harder way out. crossing into north korea. chris? >> yeah, to say the least. matt bradley, thank you for that. let's go to capitol hill now where pressure is building on alabama senator tommy tuberville for standing in the way of military promotions. nbc's ryan nobles is there for

america feed its own babies. there will be many, many questions about this in the days and weeks and months to come. 1.5 million bottles is a lot but there are millions of babies in the united states. this will not turn things around when it arrives in indiana. it's one of many steps being taken but parents aren't going to see full shelves tomorrow or the next day or the next day. this shortage could go on for a while. hopefully it'll get better soon but won't be turned around for many weeks to come. >> we have to get those flights into warp speed here. thank you very much. today there was also a flight with an urgent delivery from washington to seoul. it was carrying the bill that congress just passed for more ukrainian aide so the president could sign it. it allocates another $40 billion in humanitarian and military support. it comes at a time that russia

and that is of concern. to seoul, to tokyo, to washington. and that will be one of the top topics when they are meeting. of course this is a very busy time of year as well on any particular year because of those u.s.-south korean military drills. even if they are computer simulations, they would still irritate pyongyang. and we have seen that in recent years. and experts are saying there will potentially be more testing given the fact that the timing and the environment is quite positive for testing for north korea. the world is looking elsewhere. the united states is focused on russia's invasion of ukraine. so potentially that could work in kim jong un's favor. the fact that any u.n. security council meeting is not going to be speaking in unison. russia and china are highly unlikely to be agreeing with the united states when pushing for more sanctions against north korea if they are continuing to

test. so that does play into pyongyang's favor. many experts and observers you speak to as well will say they believe a nuclear test, the seventh nuclear test for north korea, could be imminent, could be in the next few months. and we have seen satellite images showing there is activity at that testing site. rosemary? >> all right. paula hancocks joining us live from seoul. many thanks. it's a presence that isn't going unnoticed. coming up, the concerns over chinese warships being spotted outside contested islands near japan and taiwan. we're back with that in just a moment.

talks on pyongyang's missile launches. paula hancocks is there and joins us live with the details. good to see you, paula. so what will likely come out of those discussions on north korea's missile launches? >> reporter: well, rosemary, we know as you said the special envoy sung kim is here in seoul. he'll be meeting many officials over the next couple of days. and clearly there is plenty to talk about when you consider what pyongyang has been doing over recent months. january was a record month for a number of missile launches. just last week you had a significant anniversary in pyongyang with the 110th anniversary of the birth of the country's founder and kim jong un's grandfather, kim il sung. now, we have in recent weeks also had an intercontinental ballistic missile launch from north korea. so there's a definite increase in the amount of activity from north korea, the amount of launches, the amount of testing that has been going on.
