David Patrikarakos: I've been covering conflict in several continents across Syria, Iraq, Nigeria, Congo, and Ukraine. There are several points in my career that really stay with me. In 2014, I was in the middle of two wars, one fought on the ground and the other online. A decade later, I was accompanying a frontline soldier deliver a drone to a trench 50m from the Russians. It became clear industrial warfare had returned to Europe with brutal force. #shorts #news #war #iraq #syria #ukraine #
