About this episode

Day 152.

Today our usual host, David Knowles, and our Defence and Security Editor, Dominic Nicholls, started their day in Poland, and then made their way across the border into Ukraine to report from the ground. Over the next 7 days we’ll be hearing from them as they meet prominent Ukrainian politicians, visit some significant locations of the war so far, and speak to those who are experiencing the struggle firsthand to hear their stories.
