  • Ukraine Is Exploiting Russia's Broken Logistics 03.10.2026 21Min.
    Check out our fundraiser through Car4Ukraine here! https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-fall-offensiveUkraine is setting the conditions for phase four of their counteroffensive in the east, operation Vivaldi. Put simply, there’s more good news to come. Russia’s challenges in that direction aren’t improving and there’s a fair argument they’re getting worse. It’s becoming clear that they cannot keep front line elements supplied and the chain of commanded needed to fixt that is just broken.That’s really positive for Ukraine but we can’t lose sight of the larger picture which isn’t great. Russian deep strikes have intensified and become more complex as it looks like Russia hopes to shut off power, heat and water to Ukraine’s largest cities this winter. That’s a humanitarian disaster looming in the very near future.Sources:https://t.me/ab3brigade/15547https://t.me/romanov_92/56218https://t.me/severnnyirezerv/2643https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/analytics/russia-s-new-strategy-for-attacking-kyiv-1790832542.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/02/world/europe/russia-ukraine-winter.htmlhttps://x.com/ChrisO_wiki/status/2105961825154277727?s=20Store: https://prestonstew.shop/Join the community on Substack: https://prestonstew.substack.com/Contact: [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Russia Needs More Expendable Soldiers 02.10.2026 21Min.
    Check out our fall fundraiser with Car4Ukraine here: https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-fall-offensiveThere’s a lot of speculation that Putin will order a mobilization in the coming months to backfill troop losses in Ukraine. But here’s the thing, it’s already happening and has been for some time.The challenge Putin faces right now is that they’re running out of people they would prefer to send to war, the undesirables, and they’re stuck having to explain why they need so many more soldiers while telling the population that they’re winning the war and advancing on all fronts.

    Check out the videos of your trucks at work from our current fundraiser here: https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-fall-offensiveSomething is happening in Europe. Yesterday we had multiple nations warning about the possibility of a Russian escalation creeping into NATO and EU territory. These warnings aren’t new and one at a time isn’t anything special. But in the last 48 hours we’ve had Poland, France, The Netherlands, Finland, Lithuania and Switzerland issue warnings while the US uncovered a Russian plot to carry out assassinations inside the United States. Now on the bright side President Trump signed the new Russia sanctions bill into law and the US appears ready to sell the largest batch of weapons to Ukraine in years, more on that later in today’s video.

  • Iran Resumes Missile Production as US Interceptors Run Low 17.09.2026 13Min.
    In a recent attack the US fired as many as 70 Patriots and more than a dozen THAAD interceptors trying to bring down 20 Iranian ballistic missiles. Some did the trick, others didn’t and it appears that a handful of strikes got through and damaged eight F-15s and one A-10. This is one of, if not the major challenge facing the United States in the war with Iran right now. Our interceptor inventory versus their missile stockpiles. Which runs out first? And unfortunately we just got a report that Iran has resumed production of their ballistic missiles.

  • Houthis Just Shot Down a Saudi F-15 Over Yemen 16.09.2026 13Min.
    So the Houthis just shot down a Saudi F-15 over northern Yemen, which is a bit of a problem. See the Houthis are on a tear right now. They’re digging in and solidifying their gains around the Bab-al-Mandeb strait, the Saudi backed Yemeni forces all but faded away, and Saudi Arabia’s partners, like the US, are showing no interest in getting involved. I can hear the argument that this sounds like a Saudi Arabia problem and to a degree it certainly is. Bigger picture though is the direct effect this has on the global energy markets and international shipping.Sources:https://apnews.com/article/yemen-houthis-saudi-shipping-mandeb-8c18d82c109a8ea91347ce53c0096c53https://www.nbcnews.com/world/middle-east/saudi-arabia-mecca-houthis-drone-iran-war-trump-oil-gas-prices-rcna598075https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/us-officials-met-iran-backed-houthis-oman-over-weekend-sources-say-2026-09-16/https://t.me/army21ye/3728Store: https://prestonstew.shop/Join the community on Substack: https://prestonstew.substack.com/Contact: [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
