Tensions between Russia and Ukraine continue to escalate as Russia increases its military presence on the border

Ukraine warns that an attack from Russia could come as early as January.

The US is considering sending over military advisers and new equipment to Ukraine to protect the country from a potential invasion.

The lethal aid package proposed by the Biden administration could provide the nation with new anti-tank and anti-armour missiles as well as mortars.

Equipment that was meant for Afghanistan may now be transferred to the former Soviet country including missiles, air defence systems and military helicopters.

But some people within the Biden administration are against the idea of the US getting involved in Ukraine, concerned that Russia may see the intervention as a major escalation only “further heightening tensions”.

A Kremlin spokesman says supplying Ukraine with equipment only “leads to further aggravation of the situation on the border line”.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
