Frontline Updates hosts Sharifa Muhammad and Colonel A.C. Ogintoy review the progress of the special military operation as of August 26, 2025, detailing reported losses, territorial gains across multiple axes, and strikes on depots, EW systems, and command posts that aim to disrupt Ukrainian command, control, and resupply.

In today’s episode of "Frontline Updates", we sit down with Colonel A.C. Oguntoye for an in-depth briefing on the special military operation as of August 26, 2025. From Sumy to Kherson, we unpack the attritional strategy, the loss of Western-supplied vehicles, and the operational tempo shaping the battlefield. Colonel Oguntoye explains how Russia’s forces are tightening their grip through steady tactical gains and attritional pressure, leaving Ukraine stretched across multiple fronts. Stay tuned for detailed insights and strategic implications you won’t hear anywhere else. 

The episode also examines the Estonia drone incident allegedly caused by Russian electronic warfare, the operational implications for NATO, and how cumulative attrition and equipment losses may constrain Ukraine’s ability to hold extended frontlines into late 2025.
