Many pundits did not believe Russia was going to attack Ukraine. Yet on 24th February 2022 Vladimir Putin launched a terrestrial invasion entering through the North, South, and East of the country. As we continue to make sense of the evolving situations, so many questions have arisen.

It features experts from across the War Studies and Defence Studies Department sharing their insight on the war in Ukraine. They discuss perplexing questions such as, why Putin decided to invade Ukraine, escalating from the grey zone warfare seen in 2014 to a war of attrition? Whether he's taken a reckless gamble? What do we know about his military strategy and how does it inform us on what he might do next?
