Ukraine: The Latest

Is Biden about to allow US weapons to be used to attack Russian soil?

Day 813.

Today, we discuss the latest from the Kharkiv battlefield, hear warnings from Norwegian intelligence of Russian sabotage operations across Europe, ask whether there’s about to be a shift in US policy over the use of western weapons inside Russia. Later, we hear about a new film exploring the soldiers road to redemption.
