Banned cluster munitions used in 'horrific' attack on Kyiv & Russia demands Ukraine destroy all its Western weaponry

Banned cluster munitions used in 'horrific' attack on Kyiv & Russia demands Ukraine destroy all its Western weaponry

Day 1,210.

Today, as a day of mourning is announced in Kyiv after a severe night’s bombardment – leaving at least 16 dead and over a 100 injured – we consider Moscow’s demands that Ukraine destroy all its western weaponry, and further ramifications of the Israel-Iran crisis for the war. Then we take you to the Black Sea Forum in Odesa, hearing the first interviews we recorded there, and describing some of the sights that greeted us when crossing the border.
