The conflict in southern Ukraine rages on, with reports from both sides indicating intense combat. Artillery, missile forces, and combat planes are involved, while territorial changes have been minimal thus far.
Kyiv and ports in Southern Ukraine attacked overnight, and a look at how the ending of the Grain Deal is impacting poorer countries and farmers inside Ukraine. We meet a Ukrainian drone pilot who turned his childhood love of video games into a career and summer vacation on the beach.
Russia continues to attack Ukraine's Black Sea ports in what Moscow says is a retaliatory move. Various countries in Asia, Europe, North Africa and the Americas grapple with persistent heatwaves and torrential rains amid rising temperatures. Japan is pushing ahead with its plan to release one million tonnes of wastewater from the tsunami-wrecked Fukushima nuclear power plant.
Every night over the last week, Russia has bombarded cities along Ukraine's southern Black Sea coast. With these attacks, the Russian military has tried to disrupt Ukraine's ability to export grain. And, "Stories from the Stage" are tales told by ordinary people with extraordinary experiences. We begin with Ana Hebra Flaster, who came to the United States from Cuba when she was 6 years old. Flaster is a writer who grew up in New England and her storytelling is inspired by her father. Also, in dozens of towns and cities across Spain, the far-right Vox party has found itself invited into ruling coalitions — and it has already begun dismantling policies meant to preserve nature and protect sexual and gender diversity. It now could strongly influence this weekend's federal elections, should the center-right Popular Party win a majority of votes. Plus, Kyiv's wedding officiant.
In our news wrap Thursday, cities across southern Ukraine suffered a third straight night of heavy Russian bombardment, protesters in Iraq stormed the Swedish embassy in Baghdad outraged that an Iraqi atheist in Stockholm threatened to burn a copy of the Quran for a second time and security tightened in New Zealand for the Women's World Cup after a gunman attacked construction workers in Auckland.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports on Russia Ukraine War.
In this episode, Alex starts by going over how Fox News hosts like Jesse Watters are using the COVID lies playbook to politisize the smoke from wildfires in Canada and downplay the impact of climate change. Once again, Fox News is politisizing an unnecessary issue. Next, Alex discusses how New Hampshire's governor, Chris Sununu, has said he will not run for president in 2024. Sununu changed his mind, admitting that all efforts must be made to stop Trump from becoming president. Also, Chris Christie and Mike Pence are in the race. Alex notes that Mike “Milquetoast” Pence has no hope, and while Christie does not either, he has an agenda and a goal to attack Trump. Later in the podcast, Alex talks about Jack Smith's indictment of Donald Trump over his mishandling and coverup of classified documents. While the coverup seems to be part of the issue, Alex is more concered about the national security fiasco that Trump has created. Finally, Alex looks into who blew up the Kakhovka dam in Southern Ukraine and discusses how the Ukrainian counter-offensive is going.
In the early hours of Tuesday, June 6th a major Dam on the Dnipro river in Russian occupied Ukraine suffered catastrophic damage. Floodwaters are now rushing downstream and sending tens of thousands of people fleeing. The path of these destructive floodwaters roughly follows the frontlines between Russian and Ukrainian forces in Southern Ukraine and this breach comes just as Ukraine's much anticipated counteroffensive gets underway. This obviously raises the question: did Russia sabotage the Kakhovka dam to thwart a Ukrainian counteroffensive? I'm joined today by the former US Ambassador to Ukraine John Herbst. He is a retired career foreign service office and now the senior director of the Atlantic Council's Eurasia Center. We kick off discussing the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam, including the likelihood that it was deliberately destroyed by Russia. We then have an extended conversation about what the destruction of this dam means for Ukraine's counteroffensive.

James Waterhouse, BBC Ukraine Correspondent, reports from Kyiv following explosions at a Soviet-era dam in a Russian controlled area near Kherson.
On June 6th Russia blew up the dam of the Kakhovka hydropower plant in Southern Ukraine. This act of geopolitical terrorism and ecocide produces a major environmental disaster for decades to come. It also puts the Zaporizzhia nuclear power plant (the biggest NPP in Europe) at a significant risk. We have recorded a Twitter space to discuss this tragedy, based on our conversations with the Ukrainian experts and journalists.
