This is part of a deliberate strategy that Russia can see playing out, but so far has been unable to stop. Today we’re going to look at exactly how the isolation of Crimea is happening with Ukraine shutting down the routes to the peninsula via air, land and sea.

What Ukraine Sees on the Most Violent Part of the Front

Pokrovsk remains one of the hottest sectors across the front in Ukraine. This is an area of focus for the Russian military for well over a year now and while they are slowly advancing, it’s coming at a shocking cost of men and equipment. To better understand the situation in that direction, we’re joined today by COL Volodymyr Polevyi, the head of communications for the 7th Rapid Response Corps of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. That’s the unit responsible for holding this area of the front.

Ukraine Just Unleashed Their NEW Flamingo Missile

Get your Car4Ukraine shirt here: https://prestonstew.shop/en-eur/collections/car4ukraine [https://prestonstew.shop/en-eur/collections/car4ukraine] So overnight a flamingo visited Russia. Not the pink bird kind but the missile kind. It’s the FP-5, Ukraine’s new domestically manufactured cruise missile. The fact that it made it to a target 1,000km away led some in Russia to ask, if we can’t stop this thing, what chance do we stand against NATO?

Russia's Supply Lines Are Quietly Failing

Truck Fundraiser: https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-summer-offensive [https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-summer-offensive] Merch Store: https://prestonstew.shop/ [https://prestonstew.shop/] Join the community on Substack: https://prestonstew.substack.com/ [https://prestonstew.substack.com/] I don’t think people fully understand how big of a problem Russia is facing right now. It's been a while since I’ve seen this many Russian commentators and analysts worried about the same issue: logistics. They’re not getting to the front. As one milblogger put it, “The situation is worsening every week” While others complained that now is the time to actually start the real war and even questioning whether Putin actually understands the situation at the front. Because surely if he did, these problems would be resolved. But they’re not, and the path to isolating Crimea and the southern occupied territories is becoming clear. Logistics are boring, I get it. But if you can’t secure your supply lines, you can’t hold terrain. Which means this ‘little problem’ Russia is dealing with, actually threatens the entire war effort.

Iran's Wartime Strategy: Survive and Entrench

A deal has been right around the corner for about two months while the entire region remains on edge. This weekend, we even saw a resumption of military strikes between Israel and Iran, making it seem like a return to war might happen before an actual peace deal. To better understand this situation, we’re joined today by Jonathan Hackett. Jonathan is a retired U.S. Marine interrogator, counterintelligence agent, and special operations intelligence officer and he recently authored a book titled “Iran’s Shadow Weapons” where he dives into how the Iranian regime is driven by a mixture of paranoid, greed and cold rationality.
