  3. Ukraine: The Latest Podcast
  4. Russian soldier opens fire on his own platoon as Moscow rains missiles on Kyiv in heaviest attack this year

Day 1,622.


Today, Kyiv reels from the deadliest attack this year after
failing to intercept any Russian missiles overnight, as North
Korea continues to support Russia’s war, providing 120 ballistic
missiles and six launchers. Meanwhile, Ukraine carries out air
strikes on another Wildberries warehouse and several industrial
sites, including an oil refinery. Then, we keep an eye on Kyiv
and Washington’s warming relationship in recent weeks and discuss
whether Ukraine could decide Italy’s next election. Finally,
examine the lives of war widows as Russian losses mount, and
Francis speaks to the World Health Organization’s representative
in Ukraine about providing medical care in a war zone.
