Tank traps, tripwires, trenches: secret war plans of NATO's eastern flank 'revealed'

Day 1,142.


Today, as a new helicopter drone is spotted flying over the
Moscow region, we assess movements on the frontlines and ask why
Japan is offering to provide increased support for Ukraine. Then
later we discuss the new defence line the Baltic nations of
Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia are building against Russia. Do
they think an invasion is imminent?
