About this episode

Ukraine’s Operation Spider’s Web on Sunday was an audacious sneak attack that caused billions of dollars in damage to Russian warplanes — using drones that cost as little as $600. Marc Santora, a reporter covering the war in Ukraine for The New York Times, explains why this strike on Sunday, which extended 3,000 miles into Russia, is already being seen as a signal event in the evolution of modern warfare.
