Dan 9:26
(26) And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

Note after Messiah is cut off, who it is that destroys the city. The ‘people of the Prince’ or the ‘people of the prince that is to come’?

The word for prince is also understood to be a military commander or leader of significant rank. One leader, the Messiah is cut off, while the next prince follows. The flood is a military occupation/route/complete overwhelming/flood.

It is very simple communication.

So, this EXACT same pattern also follows in verse 27.

Jesus confirms the covenant and causes the sacrifices and oblations to cease in the midst of the week.

For the overpouring of desolations ... a military commander.

Therefore you prove my point.

Scripture itself defines Jesus as the fulfillment of Daniel’s 70th Week.
