Day 1,608.

Today, in another historic day for the war, Commander-in-Chief
Oleksandr Syrskyi is replaced with one of the most famous
generals in Ukraine: Mykhailo Drapatyi, a popular and innovative
military leader with a remarkable backstory. We bring together a
frontline Ukrainian drone pilot and two leading experts to hear
what really happened in the past 72 hours, what this means for
the conflict, and the likely strategy Kyiv will adopt as the war
enters the next phase.
