In this podcast, Dominic Nicholls, Maighna Nanu, and Daniel Hardaker discuss the latest news from Ukraine, focusing on Avdiivka. They explore the cultural and geographical significance of the town, the ethnic and political divide within Ukraine, and Russia's fight for control. They also touch upon concerns over Iran-Russia missile relations and the challenges faced by the Russians in their envelopment strategy.

Russia's use of new kamikaze drones in attacks, the inauguration of a NATO liaison office in Kazakhstan, the blocking of Russian media websites in Moldova, and a charity project giving disposable cameras to children in liberated villages to document their lives. The impact of the project on the children's resilience and willingness to open up about their experiences is highlighted. Listeners are urged to support the cause.
