  3. Ukraine: The Latest Podcast
  4. Exclusive: Russia defenceless in the Mediterranean & Crimea's ‘highway of death’ under constant drone attack

Day 1,638.


Today, as Russia is accused of yet another incursion into Nato
airspace, there are reports of a major Ukrainian drone attack on
occupied Crimea. Kyiv is apparently seeking approval – again –
from Elon Musk, this time to use Starlink in strikes on Russian
missile launchers. Meanwhile, Russia is defenseless in the
Mediterranean for the first time in a decade. We speak to the
Telegraph journalist who got the scoop. Plus, a bizarre twist in
the story of the suspected Nord Stream saboteur - and which
American music artist is set to perform in St Petersburg in
October? Finally, we catch up with occupied territories expert Dr
Jade McGlynn on her recent trip to eastern Ukraine.
