Russia abandons battalion tactical groups & interview with Orysia Lutsevych

Day 279.

Today, Kyiv braces for more Russian strikes on infrastructure, we analyse the latest remarks on the invasion from Pope Francis, and discuss the extraordinary story of the Zambian student who was killed on the front lines in Ukraine, fighting for Russia.

We also speak to Orysia Lutsevych, Head @CHUkraineForum at Chatham House in London, about NATO and the war, Russia’s proxy use of NGOs and contemporary Ukrainian politics.
