00:00There's a report that an army helicopter went down on the street.
00:03Can you give us an update on that? Are the soldiers okay?
00:06The pilots are fine, yeah.
00:07And what's that?
00:08Nobody injured.
00:11We are going to issue a report tomorrow, but the pilots are fine.
00:15We're very close to having a very, very good, strong, powerful deal.
00:20If we go and bomb, which we can do very easily if we want,
00:24and we spend another two or three weeks bombing,
00:26they'll have nothing left whatsoever.
00:28But you won't have the straight open for months.

00:55But, you know, their economy is really suffering
00:58and they're going to make a deal.
00:59To be continued.
