Russia intensifies attacks on Ukraine as ceasefire talks stall & Western military chiefs in Kyiv ‘planning boots on the ground’

Day 1,136.

Today, as the heads of the French and British armed forces arrive in Kyiv for talks on what the ‘Coalition of the Willing’ might look like, we talk to the Chief Executive of the HALO Trust on how drone-mounted lasers are helping in the demining effort. Later, Francis Dearnley interviews the author of a new book that explores how Russia's War has not only destroyed millions of human lives, but has been catastrophic for the environment.
