This episode details graphic scenes.
Russia has mounted a brutal siege around the port city of Mariupol for more than a month, framing it as the key to a war of liberation. In reality, it’s a campaign against a city that is critical to Russia’s strategy — it would help open an important supply route and serve as a symbol of victory.
What is happening inside Mariupol, and what does the fighting mean for the future of Russia’s war on Ukraine?
Guest: Valerie Hopkins (https://www.nytimes.com/by/valerie-hopkins?smid=pc-thedaily), a correspondent for The New York Times, currently based in Ukraine.
