The Weekend Read: Angela Savage on the moment a child leaves the home

This year a Russian documentary filmed at a school in Russia won an Academy Award.

Its hero? A Russian Primary school teacher, Pasha Talankin.

After Russia invaded Ukraine Mr Talankin found himself trapped in the job of teaching propaganda to students.

He filmed it all until he was forced to flee the country.

And what he captured offers a rare glimpse into Putin’s Russia, and the classroom propaganda program indoctrinating Russian kids.

Today, Andrei Soldatov a Russian investigative journalist, who also fled - and is living in exile in London on how the Kremlin is indoctrinating kids, Putin’s plan to re-write history .. and Russians – are they buying it?

It’s been dubbed by underworld kingpins as “disorganised crime”

A new wave of young, amateur gangsters is changing the scene – with brazen daylight attacks, hit jobs on rivals’ family members, and cases of alleged mistaken identity.

Of course, it’s all about money, notoriety and settling scores.

Today, Mark Morri, crime editor at the Daily Telegraph, on the evolving world of gangland violence – where contract killing can now be ordered off an encrypted app.

Amateur hitmen, mistaken murders and airtasker for crims: the new underworld

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/33707ff4-680c-4664-b787-b432006f916f/transcript

The images coming out of the US-Israeli-led war in Iran have been described as apocalyptic.

Oil depots have burned for days. Strikes have hit petrochemical facilities and the area around the Bushehr nuclear power plant. In Tehran, toxic black smoke has blanketed the city, with residents reporting black acid rain falling from the sky.

After thousands of missile and drone strikes, Iran and parts of the Gulf are facing not only a humanitarian and economic crisis, but an environmental one too.

Analysts estimate that, in the first 30 days of the war, almost 9 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions were released into the atmosphere.

Today, Dr Patrick Bigger, the interim executive director of the Climate and Community Institute, on the long-term environmental cost of this war – and why some are calling these strikes ‘ecocide’.
