About this episode
The Ukrainian army has swept across areas in north-eastern Ukraine.
Russian troops appear to have been thin on the ground, unprepared and quick to retreat.
The stunning collapse could be a turning point in the war, but it’s also increasing pressure on Vladimir Putin at home, with previously loyal politicians and media figures criticising the leadership and decision making by the Kremlin.
Today, journalist Charles McPhedran on a humiliating Russian defeat in Ukraine.
