An important week in the battle for Ukraine

It’s been a critical week in the war in Ukraine. After almost 9 months of conflict, more than 6,000 people have died and countless regions heavily shelled.

Many expected Ukraine would fall within days, but they’ve launched an historic fightback and as you’ll hear from our guest, the Australian-Ukrainian journalist Misha Zelinsky, the Ukrainians are not giving up without a massive fight.

Misha is reporting for the Australian Financial Review and he joins us for today’s Briefing to give an update on where we are today, and what the next six months looks like.

Headlines:

- Flooding across Victoria, NSW and Tasmania
- Higgins to return to the stand today
- Alex Jones to pay $1.5B
- Graphic video shown at Bali commemoration
