"Not hearing hearing so much about COVID anymore now, but changes we experienced during the pandemic are still impacting us. That's from a new report released by the Downtown DC Business Improvement District. It is incumbent on to us rethink that traditional nine to five office model. While overall downtown DC's economic future looks bright. According to the Business Improvement District's new report, President and CEO Jaron Price says the office market, everyday shopping and food businesses continue to struggle. Retailers are relying on those office workers to help sustain their business models and really losing the daytime traffic. But Price says their data shows people still see downtown as a global destination. We do make sure that people feel welcome here, that we're celebrating local DC culture as well as creating the space for global interaction.

"And I'm Brendan Hazelton. Thanks for being with us. Russia launched a wave of missile attacks in Ukraine today as a delegation of African leaders hoping to broker peace between the two countries arrived in Kiev. Two people were injured in that attack. Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed that Russian tactical nuclear weapons have now been moved to Belarus. Putin made those remarks today at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum and he was asked today what the purpose was and he responded that the move was about containment and to remind everyone thinking of inflicting a strategic defense on them. Last week we told you that Belarus's President Alexander boasted Lukashenko that these weapons were being moved there and then this week he said they were there two days ago that and they were three times stronger than the nuclear weapons used by the US on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. In 1945 that's not true because these are tactical nukes not strategic nukes and tactical nukes are much less powerful but these weapons still being in Belarus is an obvious reminder of how dangerous they can be in the hands of a dictator. That's WTOP national security correspondent JJ Green. Several federal government agencies have been hit in a global cyber attack by Russian cyber criminals. Experts say it exploits a vulnerability in widely used software so what do we know about this global attack and how it was carried out there are some elements of this attack that make it stand out it's a ransomware attack which means stolen data and then they export money to decrypt it or return it but like it looks in this case they're trying to cash in twice so you'll have the encrypted data they're going to charge try and you to decrypt it but then they also have a copy of that data that they've and then they're going to charge you to stop
