Intro

Ukraine's Donbas region has traditionally been a stronghold of pro-Russian support, but after months of war in its backyard, that once-unassailable loyalty to Russia in the east could be starting to dissipate. This week, we head back to the front lines of the Ukraine-Russia war and explore why some Ukrainians who once dreamed of a Russian-backed future are changing their minds. Featuring: Enrique Menendez, Ukrainian humanitarian aid worker. Mansur Mirovalev, Al Jazeera journalist covering eastern Ukraine conflicts.
