And now we're in a similar position as when we first got into the city where
Well, we're less we're closer than you and I are right now, physically to these people who don't see us.
Either we engage with them and it's as intimate as it gets, besides the wall being between us, it might as well be hand to hand.
Or we try to get out of here and figure out another way to handle this, but they're gonna hear us probably.
I mean, it's amazing they haven't heard us yet.
And so without saying anything, 'cause there was you couldn't make any noise, the team lead, the same guy who I have such a high opinion of, the guy who was in charge of the whole movement that night.
He knew that, you know, even though realistically it's it'd be tough to defend immediately engaging with them just because you we weren't entirely sure if they had guns or not.
We looked over the wall, we could see that it looked very much like they had weapons.

They were holding like a booby trap in case they were discovered.
