About this episode
Drone strikes, like the one that damaged buildings in Ukraine's capital Kyiv on Wednesday, have become commonplace in the war with Russia.

While the conflict has seen violence, destruction and countless lives lost as wars do, it is a uniquely information-led war. From advances in technology to social media and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s communication tactics.

On the Sky News Daily, Sally Lockwood speaks to Sky's defence and security analyst Professor Michael Clarke as we examine what Russia’s war with Ukraine has taught us about modern warfare.
