'Desperation in the air': Putin suffers 'significant loss of face' following drone attacks on Moscow

Description

Two civilians were killed on Friday in shelling on Russia's Belgorod region on the border with Ukraine, while Kyiv was hit by Russian strikes overnight for a sixth day in a row. The Ukrainian capital has seen almost nightly air raids in May after being relatively spared in the beginning of the year. Strikes have also intensified in the Belgorod region, which has been hit by shelling and border incursions recently. For further analysis and a deeper perspective on a new stage in Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine and week-long assault on Kyiv, FRANCE 24's Delano D'Souza is joined by Peter Zalmayev, Director of the Eurasian Democracy Initiative.
