Russian strikes leave millions without power & interview with a Ukrainian soldier

Day 254.


Today, we bring you the latest news from Kherson & discuss
what the suspected deployment of Russian ‘barrier troops’ (that’s
troops from your own side that shoot you if you run away) means
for Russia’s fighting ability and morale.


Plus, we unpack the impact of Elon Musk's Twitter takeover and
what that could mean on the war against disinformation.


And finally, David interviews Ievgenni Slavnyi, a lieutenant
in the Armed Forces of Ukraine - Eugene was a journalist for many
years and joined up at the outbreak of Russia’s full scale
invasion.
