I strongly recommend signing up for Politico’s Nat Sec Daily. It has a lot of original reporting and nuggets not widely seen. Such as this: Leaders in the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics, known as the DNR and LNR, urged an immediate evacuation of potentially more than 3 million people to Russia over unproven claims that Ukrainian forces planned to attack, an accusation Kyiv firmly denies. Savvy journalists, however, found the metadata attached to the videos ordering civilians to urgently flee to the safety of Mother Russia were recorded two days ago.
