Become a member today Read in Browser Reporter Tania Myronyshena Monday March 23 7 minutes read Ukraine’s deep strikes make Russians feel the war Ukraine has increasingly pursued a strategy of "bringing the war back to Russia" — aiming to erode the perception that the full-scale invasion is distant and cost-free for Russian society. This approach was explicitly articulated by President Volodymyr Zelensky in 2025, as Ukraine significantly expanded its deep-strike campaign inside Russia. "The war was brought from Russia, and it is to Russia that the war must be pushed back. They must be the ones forced into peace.

Christakis lectures in a bomb shelter at the Kyiv School of Economics. (Courtesy of KSE) Nicholas A. Christakis is a physician and sociologist who directs the Human Nature Lab at Yale University. He hosts “For the Love of Science” on YouTube. I’d never taught in a war zone before. But when the rector of the Kyiv School of Economics called last autumn, I found it impossible to say no. Three days in a nice hotel with a fortified bomb shelter while the rest of the country endured daily attacks? The visit seemed like a small show of solidarity with scientific colleagues and the Ukrainian people. It felt, too, like an opportunity to witness theory in practice. Having spent my career studying the biological and social roots of collective human behavior, I understood that wider circles of people exchanging ideas can mak...
