    Ukraine Destroyed A LOT of Military Targets Last Night

    Ukraine reportedly launched 310 drones toward Russia overnight—and the most consequential targets were military. An S-400 system, a Pantsir-S1, a Tor missile system, multiple radar installations, a logistics depot, and vessels in the Black Sea were reportedly struck. I examine why destroying Russia’s air-defense network may matter more strategically than another refinery fire. I also covers Russia’s massive attacks on Odesa, Kharkiv, and Ukraine’s railway infrastructure; the latest battlefield numbers; and the one-person drone that offers a glimpse of the future.

    The Senate Just Put Putin’s Oil Customers in the Crosshairs

    The U.S. Senate passed the Lindsey O. Graham Russia and Iran Sanctions Act by an overwhelming 86–11 vote. The bill’s most powerful provision does not simply sanction Russia—it authorizes tariffs of up to 100% against major countries continuing to purchase Russian oil and gas. That could force China, India, and other buyers to choose between discounted Russian energy and access to the American market. The bill now moves to the House, but even if it becomes law, one decisive question remains: Will President Trump actually use the economic weapon Congress gives him?

    Russia Protected Moscow—Ukraine Strikes Everywhere Else

    Ukraine’s deep-strike campaign continues at a punishing pace. The Ilsky and Syzran refineries were reportedly struck, additional Russian shadow-fleet vessels were targeted, and one Ukrainian drone was filmed evading three Russian air-defense missiles. Yet the information environment has shifted toward pessimism—even as Russia’s territorial advances remain limited and its losses continue. Professor Gerdes examines the widening gap between what is happening militarily and how the war now feels psychologically. He also covers Russia’s deadly ballistic-missile attacks, Ukraine’s air-defense shortage, the battle for Kostiantynivka and Slovyansk, and the strategy of destroying Russian missiles before they can launch.

    Ukraine Just Revealed Its Answer to Russia’s Ballistic Missiles

    Ukraine’s ballistic-missile defenses are running dangerously low—but Kyiv is developing another answer: use Ukrainian missiles and Starlink-enabled targeting to locate and destroy Russian launchers shortly after they fire. Professor Gerdes examines Ukraine’s new ballistic-missile strategy, the FP-9, Russia’s S-400 dilemma, and why offensive capability may become essential to protecting Ukrainian cities and energy infrastructure. Also covered: Ukraine’s corruption reforms compared with Russia, Russian hybrid operations in Europe, Poland’s shifting politics, Russia’s recruitment problems, growing support for peace talks inside Russia, depleted American missile inventories, sanctions on Russian semiconductors, and warnings that Putin could eventually test NATO.

    Ukraine’s Sea Drones Reached Yalta—Then the Waterfront Started Burning

    Ukraine launched another massive overnight attack, striking a Wildberries logistics hub nearly 2,000 kilometers inside Russia while sea drones appeared off occupied Yalta and fire erupted along the waterfront. Professor Gerdes examines what may have been hit, why Ukraine’s drone campaign is expanding, and how Russia is struggling against the growing scale of these attacks.
