Episode overview
Jonathan Head reports from Thailand, where recent flooding has highlighted the growing challenges facing Bangkok. As climate change brings rising seas and more extreme weather across South East Asia, we examine why the Thai capital is among the region's most vulnerable cities. Plus: BBC Eye investigates the shadow war being fought inside Russia, speaking to two Russian men who claim to have secretly worked for Ukraine's intelligence services. Through rare first-hand accounts, we explore a clandestine world of covert operations, sabotage and espionage targeting military personnel and infrastructure far from the battlefield.
