Missile barrage slams Ukraine & Putin bans recruitment of foreign soldiers to placate allies
Day 1,463. Today, after a mass Russian aerial bombardment struck multiple regions across Ukraine, we report from Kyiv and eastern Ukraine on what it was like on the ground during the latest wave of drone and missile attacks. We then hear about Dom’s visit to a Ukrainian HUR military intelligence base in Zaporizhzhia, and examine reports that Vladimir Putin has been forced to curb the recruitment of foreign fighters to avoid diplomatic fallout with key allies. We also discuss the battlefield “kill ratio” that could undermine Russia’s war effort, and new air defence systems being developed that claim the capability to intercept nuclear missiles. Contributors Francis Dearnley (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). Dominic Nicholls (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). Adélie Pojzman-Pontay (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). Rozina Sabur (National Security Editor, The Telegraph). Svitlana Morenets (Ukrainian Journalist).
