1,000 days on - are Ukraine and Russia locked into a war of attrition? | Sitrep podcast
103Russia thought it would conquer Ukraine in 10 days, Ukrainian resolve is still preventing that. But after more than a million casualties on both sides, thousands of pieces of military hardware destroyed, will it simply come down to which side can outlast the other?
Sitrep’s Simon Newton and Hannah King join us from Kyiv to share how the people, and their resolve, are holding up, while Professor Michael Clarke analyses the battlefield picture.
If it doesn’t come down simply to attrition then what could prove to be a tipping point?
Ukraine hopes permission to fire British Storm Shadow and American Atacms missiles into Russia could be a game changer, while Russia's banking on ratcheting up nuclear rhetoric to discourage Western support. Sitrep assesses the effect they could have.
Kate Gerbeau presents, with expert analysis from Professor Michael Clarke.
