    Ukraine Just Found Russia’s Weak Point

    Learn about our truck fundraiser here:https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-summer-offensiveCar4Ukraine shirts (100% of proceeds go to their organization): https://prestonstew.shop/collections/car4ukraineWe need to start thinking about what happens to Russia if they cannot protect themselves from Ukrainian strikes. I mean it’s one thing for a single drone to slip through here or there but we’re seeing dozens of strikes each day against high value targets in areas that Russia knows it has to protect. This is genuinely a time in the war unlike anything we’ve seen over the past four years.

Over time, that’s going to impose a real challenge for the Russian Army at the front. But for now, they continue to push and one area in the east is coming under more and more pressure every day.

    "There's No Gas At All!" - Ukraine Just Hit A Critical Supply Route

    Learn about our Car4Ukraine campaign here: https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026The situation in Crimea is worsening for Russia by the day. Overnight, following Ukrainian strikes on the Kerch Strait ferry crossing, Crimean government officials warned that fuel is no longer available for sale except to military and state services. This follows sustained strikes on all means to keep the peninsula supplied and creates a major problem for Russia as they'll need to divert resources to keep the area habitable.Store: https://prestonstew.shop/Join the community on Substack: https://prestonstew.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/prestonstew_TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@prestonstewInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/prestonstew_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Preston-Stewart/61584740132063/Unclassified Podcast Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4YmaFZihykI0iov9XgQ0uD?si=efe0b3bd89b6421dYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnclassifiedPodContact: preston@warstories.co Learn more about your ad choices.

    Why the US Suddenly Shifted on Iran

    For context we recorded this at 9am Central on Friday June 19th.One week ago the US stance was zero nuclear enrichment for Iran, they had to hand over all of their highly enriched uranium and the ballistic missile program had to be destroyed.Today, President Trump has said that only fair that Iran keeps their missiles, that we’re in no rush to get the highly enriched uranium and future enrichment is ok for civilian purposes.That is a dramatic change in a very short period of time so if you’re confused, just know that so am I.To help us unpack what exactly is happening here, we’re joined today by Ambassador Daniel Shapiro.Dan served as the US Ambassador to Israel from 2011 to 2017, and spent time working in the Pentagon, at the State Department on the National Security Council and Capital Hill.Ambassador Shapiro on X: https://x.com/DanielBShapiroStore: https://prestonstew.shop/Join the community on Substack: https://prestonstew.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/prestonstew_TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@prestonstewInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/prestonstew_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Preston-Stewart/61584740132063/Unclassified Podcast Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4YmaFZihykI0iov9XgQ0uD?si=efe0b3bd89b6421dYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnclassifiedPodContact: preston@warstories.co Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s not just the direct effect on the war effort, but Russia is starting to show signs of domestic fuel shortages as well. According to Reuters, Russia one of the world’s largest oil exporters, is set to import fuel this month as Ukraine continues to burn their refineries across the country. There’s a bit of a snowball effect playing out right now that Russia is having a hard time stopping.

    Leaked Terms Hint at Major US Concessions to Iran

    A new leak purports to show the text of the US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding and it's not great. From this document, which US officials have not yet commented on, it appears that Iran's negotiating position has increased while ours decreased throughout the war. In comparing terms before the beginning of hostilities to this document, there a number of areas where Iran gets relief but significant US demands are left unaddressed. I'd like to stress again that US officials have not confirmed or denied this leak and as of recording the official stance is that the terms may be released at a later date.Sources:https://x.com/JoshBlockDC/status/2066684305724592333?s=20https://understandingwar.org/research/middle-east/iran-update-february-26-2026/#:~:text=US%20officials%20told%20the%20Wall%20Street%20Journal%20that%20Iran's%20proposal,York%20Times%20on%20February%2026https://punchbowl.news/wpcontent/uploads/MOU_with_Iran_Messaging_Highlights__The_White_House__June_15_2026.pdfStore: https://prestonstew.shop/Join the community on Substack: https://prestonstew.substack.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/prestonstew_TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@prestonstewInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/prestonstew_/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Preston-Stewart/61584740132063/Unclassified Podcast Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4YmaFZihykI0iov9XgQ0uD?si=efe0b3bd89b6421dYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnclassifiedPodContact: preston@warstories.co Learn more about your ad choices.

The enemy is pressing very hard." This is shaping up to be a key fight in summer 2026 with recent reports from Ukraine and Russia that the city is becoming a key component of Russian offensive operations.
