Although the eyes of the world are currently focused on the Olympic Games, that hasn’t ended the conflicts occurring all over the globe.

Today marks day 895 of the Ukraine War, and Prime Minister Volodymyr Zelenskyy this week unveiling the first of the F-16s, which are already in use.

Over in the Middle East, Israel and the United States are on high alert for retaliation from Iran after the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.

Both Ukraine and Gaza are still under fire, and Hezbollah are ramping up their drone attacks on Israel.

Mick Ryan is a retired Australian Major General, now an academic and strategist, and has written a book covering the lessons of the Russia-Ukraine war and the strategies adopted within: The War for Ukraine: Strategy and Adaptation Under Fire.

He joined Mike Hosking to give his insight on the global conflicts and where they’re likely to go from here.
