I wanna know how we got to this position with white having that hanging rook that clearly the bishop was not defending

Black was in check the turn before so had to protect the King

The black bishop could've been in the back row the turn before, revealing the attack on the white rook but white countered with check

Moves from the position in reverse order:

f7-f5

Bd3-e4

Bf8-g7

Plausible enough

That bishop move makes sense. Thanks.
