Russia suffers heavy losses in blitzkrieg failure & West repledges support to Ukraine

Day 594. 

Today, we assess movements on the front lines, discuss the aftermath of a Nato summit reeling from events in the Middle East, and consider how locked-in military and financial support is for Kyiv in a rapidly changing geopolitical environment.

Plus, we speak to mountaineer and cyclist Jerry Gore, leader of a 3000 km bike ride to Ukraine to raise awareness of the physical and mental toll the war takes on civilians young and old.

And we hear an in depth discussion between Francis and Melinda Haring, of the human rights organisation Razom, and Ukrainian public intellectual Yevhen Hlibovtsky, on American support and the consequences of collective trauma on a society.
