OVERSEAS IN UKRAINE, A DESPERATE SEARCH FOR SURVIVORS AFTER AN ALLEGED RUSSIAN STRIKE KILLED MORE THAN 45 CIVILIANS OVER THE WEEKEND. THE DRAWING AN INTERNATIONAL RESPONSE. WESTERN COUNTRIES ARE INCREASING SUPPORT NEARLY 11 MONTHS INTO THE WAR. AMY LU IS IN WASHINGTON. WELL, PATRICK AND DESTINY. THE U.S. IS TRAINING MORE UKRAINIAN SOLDIERS OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTRY TO OPERATE MORE WEAPONS SYSTEMS. THAT, AS EUROPEAN ALLIES PLEDGE ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR EMERGENCY CREWS, CONTINUE NONSTOP SEARCH AND RESCUE MISSIONS IN THE SOUTHEASTERN UKRAINE CITY OF DNIPRO FOLLOWING A RUSSIAN MISSILE STRIKE ON SATURDAY THAT KILLED NEARLY 50 CIVILIANS, INCLUDING CHILDREN. RUSSIA IS JUST CONTINUING TO ACT IN WAYS THAT ARE UNBELIEVABLE. THE ATTACK DRAWING CRITICISM FROM PRESIDENT BIDEN ALONGSIDE THE NETHERLANDS PRIME MINISTER. WHILE TOP U.S. MILITARY OFFICIALS OVERSEE TRAINING FOR UKRAINIAN SOLDIERS ON ADVANCED WEAPONS IN GERMANY. ANY TYPE OF CAPABILITY THAT WE’RE ABLE TO PROVIDE UKRAINE TO ASSIST THEM IN THEIR EFFORTS, DEFEND THEIR TERRITORY AND BE PREPARED TO TAKE BACK TERRITORY, I THINK IS A GOOD THING. SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY BLINKEN, MEETING WITH THE UK FOREIGN MINISTER PRAISING THE COUNTRY’S EFFORT TO SUPPLY TANKS AND IMPOSE SANCTIONS AGAINST ELEMENTS THAT WILL CONTINUE TO REINFORCE AND ADD TO WHAT THE UNITED STATES HAS PROVIDED, INCLUDING IN OUR MOST RECENT DRAWDOWN.

THE NOW HAVE TO BE APPROVED BY THE FULL GOP CONFERENCE. THERE WAS UNPREDICTABLE PRICES. MORE AMERICANS ARE INTERESTED IN ELECTRIC VEHICLES.

A RECENT SURVEY BY CONSUMER REVEALS MORE THAN A THIRD OF AMERICANS WOULD CONSIDER BUYING OR LEASING AN EV WHEN IN THE MARKET FOR A NEW RIDE. RIGHT NOW. IT’S TOUGH FINDING ANY TYPE OF CAR. THERE’S IN THE INDUSTRY BUILDING VEHICLES, GENERAL AND EVS BEING THE NEWEST THING ON THE BLOCK WITH THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY. ARE JUST MORE DIFFICULT TO BUILD AND ULTIMATELY SUPPLY IS JUST NOT THERE. AND BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED SUPPLY SAY YOU SHOULD EXPECT A LITTLE STICKER SHOCK. ACCORDING TO KELLEY BLUE BOOK, ON AVERAGE, A NEW EV NOW COST AROUND $64,000. THAT’S NEARLY 16,000 MORE THAN THE OVERALL INDUSTRY. BUT EXPERTS SAY SHIFTING FROM GAS TO ELECTRIC CAN HELP YOU SAVE MONEY DOWN THE ROAD WHEN IT COMES TO GAS AND MAINTENANCE. 652 NOW AND APPLE IS UPGRADING TWO POPULAR DEVICES WITH ITS NEWEST GENERATION OF COMPUTER CHIPS.
