The state of Russia-Ukraine conflict after Poland missile strike

As Europe heads into the cold winter months, there still no indication of the war between Russia and Ukraine coming to an end.

The Ukrainian army has made major advances and taken back much of their country. Meanwhile, Russian casualties are piling up and the Putin’s forces are now responding with a barrage of missile attacks, a strategy that inadvertently led to the deaths of two people in Poland. 

So what does this mean for the European economies, particularly Ukraine and Russia? With its back to the wall, could Russia pull the trigger on a nuclear weapon? And is there a risk of the rest of the world stops caring about the struggle of the Ukrainian people?

Today, Damien is by joined Newshub Europe correspondent Lisette Reymer, who has visited Ukraine five times this year, for an update on the ongoing war.
