On September 25, I examine reports of a large Ukrainian long-range drone operation across Russia, including fires at Lukoil’s Perm oil refinery—some 1,500 kilometers from Ukraine—and strikes on the Iskra electronics plant in Ulyanovsk. Iskra is reportedly tied to semiconductor components for Kh-59 missiles, Pantsir air defenses, radar, and communications equipment. Reported targets also included the Novoshakhtinsk refinery, a synthetic-rubber facility in Voronezh, a logistics site in occupied Luhansk, and two radar stations in Rostov.
I compare this dispersed strike pattern with Russia’s overnight drone and missile attacks on Ukraine, including the deadly strike on a Kyiv residential high-rise and reported casualties in Kharkiv Oblast. I also assess airport disruptions, air-defense pressure, the earlier Kuibyshev refinery damage, and Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian logistics on the Zaporizhzhia front. The strategic issue is whether repeated, clustered drone raids can impose sustained costs on Russia’s oil, defense-industrial, and logistics networks.

Crimea is now facing a confirmed fuel crisis and growing electricity problems — and the warning came from Crimea’s own Russian-installed governor.
In this Ukraine war update, Greg breaks down the worsening situation in occupied Crimea, fuel shortages near Moscow, Ukraine’s strike on the Dubna Space Communication Center, Zelenskyy’s confirmation of repeated hits on Russian aviation coordination sites, and the warning that Russia may be preparing a major combined attack within the next 72 hours.
We also cover China’s mixed message on Ukraine’s territorial integrity, Lukashenko’s moves between Putin and Xi, renewed concerns around Belarus transmitters, and Dmitry Karpenko’s claim that Russia may be preparing a 500,000-man mobilization after elections.
From Crimea to Moscow, the pressure on Russia is growing — and Ukraine’s long-range drone campaign appears designed to push Putin toward a deeper internal crisis.

I examine the economic stresses surrounding Russia’s September 2026 Duma election and what Putin may do after securing the mandate he seeks. Reports this week pointed to fuel queues, the release of gasoline reserves ahead of voting, corporate-bond defaults reportedly up 63% year over year, and a 12% decline in Russian travel-agency demand.
I also look at the agricultural dislocation: sunflower prices have fallen amid a 50% export duty, while industry sources describe wheat exports as down at least 60%. The government’s proposed purchase of 3 million tons of grain is far below the 10 million tons analysts say may be needed in the south. Finally, I assess the reported transfer of Nestlé, Auchan, and other foreign subsidiaries to Lev Management, Aeroflot’s MC-21 delivery promises, and the pressure that economic hardship may place on recruitment and future Kremlin choices—from further seizures to mobilization or hybrid coercion.

Kyiv is facing major upheaval after Fedorov’s removal, sweeping leadership changes, nationwide protests, and growing pressure on General Syrskyi.
Tonight, I separate the confirmed facts from the speculation and examine what President Zelenskyy’s decisions could mean for Ukraine’s government, military leadership, and war effort. We also cover the new defense and security appointments, the dangerous situation in Konstantinivka, warnings of intensified Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities, and Crimea’s worsening electricity and fuel crisis.
Ukraine is fighting a brutal war against a much larger enemy—and these decisions could have serious consequences.

Ukraine’s overnight drone campaign reportedly struck 15 vessels in the Sea of Azov while hammering energy facilities and Russian air defenses across occupied Crimea.
In this July 13 war update, Greg Terry examines Ukraine’s growing long-range strike campaign, including reported attacks on seven tankers, five cargo ships, Crimean infrastructure, S-400 systems, radar stations, and other Russian military targets.
But Russia is escalating too. We examine the emerging FPV drone threat along the critical Kryvyi Rih–Dnipro supply route, the destruction facing Orikhiv, the terrifying reality civilians experienced during the Sumy attack, and Russia’s massive ballistic missile strike on Odesa.
President Zelenskyy is also in France strengthening the Coalition of the Willing as Vladimir Putin promises increasingly powerful retaliation. Reports now warn that Russia may be preparing another large-scale attack involving as many as 1,700 Shahed drones, while Ukraine remains dangerously vulnerable to ballistic missiles.
Plus, a brief look at renewed tensions involving Iran and the Strait of Hormuz.
What happens next could shape Ukraine’s security heading into the fall and winter. Like the video, share your thoughts below, and subscribe for continuing Ukraine war coverage and analysis.

Russia’s latest strikes on Ukraine killed 16 people and wounded nearly 50, while President Zelenskyy says Ukraine will answer with a justified and decisive response. In this update, I break down what happened, why Ukraine’s current long-range operations are not yet the promised retaliation, and why the continuing shortage of Patriot interceptors remains so dangerous.
We also look at a major new threat from North Korea: the KN-30 heavy ballistic missile, which Ukrainian defense intelligence reports can carry a warhead of up to 2.5 tons and reach roughly 900 kilometers. I also examine Russia’s missile stockpiles and production as Ukraine faces the continuing challenge of defending its cities from ballistic attacks.
Then we go inside Russia itself. Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak openly describes a “tense” second phase in Russia’s gasoline market, including export restrictions, fuel imports, refinery problems, and authorization for lower-grade fuel. Russian television also delivers another revealing moment as Popov describes personally witnessing three Ukrainian strikes while traveling through Crimea.
Ukraine needs air defense, but the pressure Ukraine is applying against Russia is also producing increasingly visible consequences. We look at both sides of that reality—and what it could mean next.

Ukraine appears to have opened a new front in its long-range strike campaign—not by abandoning attacks on oil refineries and the shadow fleet, but by expanding to Russia's logistics backbone.
I explain why repeated strikes on Wildberries distribution centers, oil depots, cargo ships, and military supply routes represent a coherent strategy designed to increase the cost of sustaining Russia's war effort. The discussion also covers the latest battlefield update, the appointment of Mykhailo Drapatyi as Ukraine's new Commander-in-Chief, and continued Ukrainian pressure on Russia's occupied logistics corridors.

Vladimir Putin just acknowledged Russia’s battlefield losses—while Zelenskyy warned that Iran and North Korea are already part of the war through weapons and Shahed drones.
Greg breaks down Zelenskyy’s Sky News interview, Iran’s threats against Ukraine, Putin’s State Duma speech, and the warning of a possible Russian force buildup by October. We also examine the pressure surrounding Ukraine’s military leadership and Zelenskyy’s Washington meeting with Donald Trump on drones, air defense, and U.S.–Ukraine cooperation.

Putin is pushing a Konstantinivka victory narrative just as Trump heads into NATO — but the battlefield evidence tells a very different story.
In this frontline update with Professor Gerdes, we break down why Konstantinivka has become the central story of the war, how Russia is using information warfare around the fortress belt, and why the next 72 hours could matter for Ukraine, NATO, Trump, Zelenskyy, and Putin.
We also cover the latest Kyiv strike warnings, Ukraine’s pressure campaign against Russian refineries and logistics, Crimea’s blackout, Omsk being hit, the Pokrovsk and Dobropillia sectors, Sumy, Kharkiv, Kupyansk, Zaporizhia, and the wider question of whether Russia’s battlefield narrative is collapsing faster than its actual front line is advancing.
Ukraine is outgunned and outmanned — but not outsmarted.

Dmitry Medvedev says Russia can only be “saved” by defeating Ukraine. That is not the language of a confident Kremlin—and Sergei Lavrov’s latest warnings make Moscow’s growing pressure even harder to ignore.
This update breaks down Ukraine’s deep strikes on targets in Ryazan, Perm, and Russian logistics sites; President Zelenskyy’s urgent request for 300 Patriot interceptors before winter; the Senate’s 86–12 procedural vote targeting buyers of Russian oil; signs of possible Russian mobilization and additional North Korean manpower; and Lavrov’s escalating rhetoric toward Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and NATO.
Ukraine is increasing the cost of this war, but its air-defense clock is running fast. Watch to the end, then tell me: Is Russia projecting strength—or revealing fear?

I examine Ukraine’s reported overnight drone raid into Russia, including damage and disruption at Yandex’s Sosovo data center in the Ryazan region, drones pushing toward the Omsk refinery, and a fire at Gazprom Nevkhim Salavat in Bashkortostan. Omsk processes roughly 440,000 barrels per day and supplies major shares of Russia’s gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel; Salavat is also a major refining and petrochemical complex supporting Russian forces. I also track the continuing fire at the Samara oil-pumping station.
I then assess the other side of this exchange: Russia’s Shahed attacks, Ukraine’s reported interception rate, Quantum Systems’ SPYS interceptor-drone plans, and a MiG-29 intercept. On the ground, I look at Ukrainian FPV attacks on Russian equipment, the Frodo evacuation robot, and more than 3,000 Russian trucks and vehicles reportedly hit on key southern roads since May 2026. The strategic question is whether strikes on data, fuel, and road logistics can impose durable costs on Russia’s war effort.

Putin’s own words — and the Kremlin’s response today — make one thing clear: Russia is not preparing for peace. It is preparing for escalation.
In this update, Greg breaks down Peskov’s confirmation of Putin’s position, Zelenskyy’s warning that Putin has ordered Donetsk seized by December 31, and the larger Novorossiya objective that would cut Ukraine off from the Black Sea.
We also look at the brutal reality in Konstantinivka, the pressure on Ukraine’s fortress belt, Lukashenko’s sudden meetings with Putin and Xi Jinping, Belarusian threats after Zelenskyy’s warning, signs pointing toward Russian mobilization after September, and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s comments to Russian state media.
This is a serious moment for Ukraine, NATO, Europe, and the United States — because Moscow is saying out loud what it intends to do next.
