Quick Glance: The Fall of Bakhmut Doesn't Mean Russia Has Changed the Tide of War — Pentagon Chief
- Its demise would not necessarily imply that Moscow's military efforts had regained momentum.
- "I think it's more of a symbolic value than it is strategic and operational value," Austin tells Reuters, adding that he cannot predict whether or not Russian forces will take Bakhmut.
- "The fall of Bakhmut won't necessarily mean that the Russians have changed the tide of this fight," Austin added.
- On March 4, British intelligence reported that Ukrainian forces defending Bakhmut are under increasing pressure (Ukr) from Russian forces, with intense fighting taking place in the city and its environs.

Anaheim Police tests Tesla Model Y as part of new patrol fleet ... Show more
Quick Glance: Anaheim Police Introduce New Tesla Patrol Vehicles
- Anaheim police will soon start using electric Tesla Model Ys as patrol vehicles in a pilot program to keep more officers on the road.
- The Police Department has 83 patrol vehicles that are aging and breaking down more often. The need is critical as the patrol fleet is depleted, leading to insufficient vehicles for proper officer deployment.
- The six purchased Model Ys will be put in service after 16 officers are trained to use them. The electric vehicles will be charged at police stations with level-two chargers and refueled with Tesla Superchargers during 24-hour shifts.
- The Teslas are expected to be cheaper to operate but have a higher initial cost. The department plans to evaluate the performance of electric vehicles during the pilot program to determine potential future purchases.
