The latest developments from Ukraine this week with the Ukrainecast team.

Armed insurgents have crossed the border from Ukraine to launch attacks in Russia's Belgorod region. Two Russian paramilitary groups claim they were responsible for the largest cross-border incursion since Russia's full-scale invasion began. We explore the motives of the two groups with ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Russia Editor Steve Rosenberg.

Also, how does the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ decide which material shared on social media is accurate and which is disinformation? We’re joined by Olga Robinson from ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Verify, who explains the tools journalists use to sift through photos, videos and documents.

And in our second episode this week we report on a missile strike on a medical centre in Dnipro that has killed at least two people and injured dozens more. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½â€™s Ukraine correspondent James Waterhouse is there and describes the rescue operation. Shashank Joshi, defence editor at The Economist, explains why Russia has targeted healthcare facilities. And Daniele Palumbo from ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Verify explains how his team checked the authenticity of video of the hospital.
