Precision can be louder than firepower when it hits the right targets. We break down a week where rail nodes, depots, and power infrastructure took center stage—and where the tempo of the war was measured as much in delayed convoys as in destroyed vehicles. With Colonel A.C. Ogantoye guiding us through the map, we trace how multidomain strikes—air, ground, naval, and UAV—aim to throttle Ukraine’s industrial output and choke the transport corridors that feed the front. Sector by sector, we examine attrition as strategy: Kharkiv’s pressure and depot losses, the liberation of settlements in western Donetsk alongside the dismantling of counterbattery networks, and the south’s grim calculus as specialized units and Western armored vehicles face layered fires without consistent air cover. Our tour continues through the central front, where elite formations are forced into repeated engagements that erode experience and cohesion, and into the east, where local advances threaten the depth of reserves and the lifelines that support other fronts. Along the Dnieper, we unpack the river’s unique challenges—crossings, coordination, and the outsized impact of electronic warfare—exploring how the loss of EW stations can blind artillery loops and open doors for future exploitation. We also spotlight air defense performance, from glide bomb and cruise missile interceptions to the ongoing duel against massed UAVs, and ask what these adaptations reveal about resilience and the limits of long-range strike. The conversation builds toward a sober winter outlook. Energy strain, frozen logistics, and the slow grind of resupply could define the next phase, pushing Ukraine toward an exhaustion state unless external support scales and speeds up. We connect the dots between industrial targeting, supply lines, and morale to frame the decisions both sides face as temperatures drop. If you value clear, field-informed analysis over noise, you’ll find the context you need to understand where momentum might truly lie.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
