98. ATACMS finally arrive in Ukraine

On this weeks Battleground: Ukraine Saul and Patrick discuss the big news that Ukraine has fired its first US long-range ATACMS missiles at two airports in Russian-occupied Ukraine with devastating results, which begs the question: why weren’t they supplied earlier?

They also take a look at some diplomatic developments, including Putin's arrival in Beijing for a meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, while Joe Biden travels to Israel to underline America’s support for Bibi Netanyahu’s government as it plans its response to Hamas’s savage attack on its citizens.
