Discussion on Urban Warfare in the 21st Century featuring Dr. Anthony King

In the rapidly evolving world of warfare, cities are increasingly becoming strategic and operational objectives in major conflicts. This shift is the focus of Dr. Anthony King's latest book, "Urban Warfare in the Twenty-First Century," recently released in the United States.

Dr. King, a professor of war studies at the University of Warwick, delves deep into this topic in a recent podcast episode. The discussion covers major themes from his book, providing valuable insights into the challenges and complexities of urban warfare in the modern era.

Despite efforts to avoid urban warfare, Western military forces will find it virtually impossible to do so. The accuracy and lethality of modern military weapons mean that combatants will be pulled into urban areas, transforming cities into the entire campaign operating environments of major wars in some cases.

Dr. King's book offers a comprehensive analysis of this trend, providing a timely and essential read for anyone interested in understanding the future of warfare.
