  • Massive attack hits Kyiv as Putin tells Trump diplomacy is 'not possible'

    Massive attack hits Kyiv as Putin tells Trump diplomacy is 'not possible'
    Jul 4 2025

    Day 1,227.

    Today, as Putin and Trump hung up the phones after an hour-long conversation yesterday, Kyiv headed to the shelters for another massive drone and missile attack and a long, sleepless night. This morning, Russia declared that it is ‘not possible’ to achieve their goals through diplomatic means after the phone call. We discuss all these stories, then hear from Dr Jade McGlynn for the latest on resistance in the occupied territories, and talk to a British band who chose to perform in Kyiv.

    Day 1,226.

    Today, as the fallout from Donald Trump freezing US weapons to Ukraine continues, in a special dispatch, we join the Ukrainian navy out on the Black Sea during an air attack on Odesa.

A brilliant service to keep up-to-date

the various locations, special interviews and just local people in the middle of this invasion. Plus the political 🙄 to and fro gives a well balanced view.

keep up the great work.

I listen on the Rottnest ferry (W. Australia) on my way to work on the island
