- The official says Putin has fired more than 1,100 missiles into Ukraine since the invasion began
- In the capital of Kyiv, the city is under a 35-hour curfew because of increased attacks from the air. Nevertheless, Ukrainian forces say they’ve retaken a strategically important suburb of the capital.
- Meanwhile, the humanitarian crisis continues to worsen with 10 million people displaced, about half of them children.

Important Takeaways:
- Russia’s Ukraine war threatens to blow US food prices sky-high
- Inflation nearing a dangerous high, experts warn
- It began with a rapid rise in gas prices. Now, with Russian oil banned in the United States and energy scarcity heightened globally, experts say shoppers can expect their grocery bills to rise in coming months
- Russia and Ukraine produce 25% of the global wheat supply, according to the Observatory for Economic Complexity. While neither of these countries export wheat to the U.S. directly, their absence from the global market is expected to strain supply and push prices higher.
- “It comes an absolutely horrible time for American consumers because we’re looking every day at inflation almost reaching 10%,” Dan Varroney

Important Takeaways:
- Russia claims it used hypersonic missile to strike Ukraine munitions warehouse
- Russia on Saturday said it used a hypersonic Kinzhal missile to strike a Ukrainian munitions warehouse in the western region of Ivano-Frankivsk.
- The Kinzhal, which translates to “dagger,” is a nuclear-capable missile that has never been used before in combat, and also has the ability to travel at 10 times the speed of sound and a range of roughly 1,250 miles
- It is unclear where the hypersonic Kinzhal missiles were fired from.
- The U.S. has so far refused to provide fighter jets to Ukraine and instead said this week that it will provide another $1 billion in defensive aid.

Important Takeaways:
- Plains Drought to Curb U.S. Wheat Harvest, Adding to Global Supply Worries
- A worsening drought in the southern U.S. Plains is threatening the region’s winter wheat crop just as the Russian invasion of Ukraine dents global supplies.
- More than half of Kansas was classified as under severe drought or worse as of March 8, the driest conditions since 2018, according to the National Drought Mitigation Center.
- Severe drought is also covering three-quarters of Oklahoma and more than two-thirds of Texas, both of which also are large wheat producers.
- U.S. hard red winter wheat represents nearly half of the country’s overall wheat production and is milled mainly for bread flour. A reduced crop could further stoke food inflation that the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) said was the highest-ever in February

Important Takeaways:
- Amid Heightened Risk of Cyber Attack, US Scrambles to Fill Nearly 600,000 Open Cyber Security Jobs
- Cyber protection is no longer optional. The future is now, and the war in Ukraine has escalated the threat of destructive ransomware attacks to an all-time high.
- The intelligence community says it’s focused on four potential scenarios.
- “We’re very, very focused on ransomware actors that might conduct attacks against our allies or our nation. We’re very, very focused on some type of cyber activity that’s designed for perhaps Ukraine that spreads more broadly into other countries. Third, is any type of attack that an adversary would conduct on an ally. And finally, certainly our critical infrastructure,” said NSA Director Gen. Paul Nakasone.
- “In today’s society, everything is connected, everything is interdependent, and therefore, everything is potentially vulnerable,” Jen Easterly, director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
- “In 2019 in the U.S., you had about a bit less than 50,000 people who…graduated from a master’s in computer science
- The numbers just don’t add up: 50,000 people to fill nearly 600,000 jobs. So the tech industry is trying to help fill the void.

Important Takeaways:
- Russia’s ‘Satan 2’ and the new missile race
- On Friday, Russia launched the largest ballistic missile in history. Weighing in at 200 tons, Moscow says the Sarmat rocket – dubbed “Satan 2” by Western defense analysts – is the first with sufficient range to hit any location on earth from a single launch point.
- Russian military officials claim their new Zircon anti-ship missile is capable of speeds in excess of 4,000 miles per hour, roughly six times the speed of sound
- In the last two years, China has showcased its own trove of medium-range missiles, one dubbed the “carrier-killer” for its intended ability to take out the United States’ largest warships.
- Russia and China see missile technology as key to pushing back the United States and its allies. China is believed to be installing such systems on the network of artificial islands it is constructing to dominate the South China Sea.
- This escalation comes at a dangerous time. Around the world, cyberattacks and other new forms of confrontation are redefining what it even means to be at war. Combined with the return of this very Cold War-style missile contest, the world may be heading towards a very disconcerting balance of terror

Important Takeaways:
- China’s nuclear threats are following on the heels of Russia’s threats and should be a US wake-up call
- China’s Ministry of Defense on Thursday threatened to impose the “worst consequences” on countries helping Taiwan defend itself.
- Revealingly, China Military Online, an official English-language site of China’s People’s Liberation Army, translated the last sentence of the spokesperson’s words this way: “Anyone who makes troubles on the Taiwan question will suffer the worst consequences in the end.”
- Usually, Beijing’s official English translations soften Chinese texts. This is one of the rare cases where the opposite is true, indicating the Chinese military is itching to use its nuclear weapons.
- Last July, the Chinese regime threatened to incinerate Japan over its support for Taiwan.
- In September, China issued a nuke threat against Australia because it was working with the U.S. and U.K. to maintain stability in the region.
- Before that, Chinese generals and civilian propagandists had made, over the course of decades, unprovoked threats to destroy American cities.
- Many believe President Biden is not fighting harder to save Ukraine because he fears Russia will use its nuclear arsenal. Can it be any coincidence that, after having seen Putin successfully issue nuke threats, Beijing is adopting the same intimidation tactics?
