Radio War Nerd EP 388 — Landmines

What this episode covers

Recorded: July 18, 2023 The long awaited summer Ukrainian counteroffensive — the counteroffensive that Anne Applebaum says the future of democracy hinges on — unfortunately hinged on one flawed assumption: Russia doesn't know how to plant landmines. Turns out, Russia does know how to plant landmines. In fact they're very good at it. And that's a big problem. Because as we discuss, there is no effective weapon against landmines.
