Russia says multiple drone attacks repelled

On the final day of voting, Moscow has accused Ukraine of trying to disrupt the presidential election with drone and missile attacks inside Russia and in Russian-occupied territory in Ukraine.
And in Israel, families of the remaining hostages from the October 7th attacks by Hamas are urging the government to do a deal to secure their release from Gaza, before it’s too late.
To discuss those topics and more, today’s guests are Stephanie Baker, a senior writer at Bloomberg News in London, and Christopher De Bellaigue, a historian and journalist.
