Ukraine's Russia incursion: from those who have fought there

As Ukrainian soldiers continue to fight inside Russia, the Times' Tom Ball talks us through what it's like for them from the border city of Sumy, where the incursion began. He has spoken to several servicemen and women who have been fighting in Russia, who have provided insight into the type of fighting they have seen, the injuries they have suffered, and the objectives they have been told to achieve.

We also hear about the Western families who are flocking to live IN Russia, attracted by its supposed conservative Christian values, only to discover all is not quite as promised.
