Will this be a short spurt or the start of something big?

Today we're looking into a major operation in Mexico where the government eliminated El Mencho, the head of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, or CJNG. This marks the highest profile capture/killing of a cartel leader in years and immediately led to a spike in violence across the country. This is a developing situation so this is what we know so far.

This could begin any day at this point

Today we're looking into the possible options for the US to strike Iran in the coming days. Based on what we have in theater right now it could be a sustained campaign for about a week, no boots on ground and we should expect a panicked Iranian response. Right now we're in a window where we have enough assets in the region for limited strikes and every day more flow in to increase our capabilit...

Today we're looking into new reports about Russian commanders killing their own troops if they're unable to pay the bribe to stay off the front. While this isn't new, we should expect to see more stories like this as Russia is forc...

This escalated quickly

Today we're looking at the increasing possibility of US military action in Iran. The military buildup in the Middle East, that's still ongoing now, is unlike anything we've seen in decades. Meanwhile, negotiations have stalled and Israeli officials are suggesting something may kick off in the coming days. For a wide look at what's coming, we look today into a number of sources that discuss the rationale for wa...

Today we're looking into the reports now coming out of Russia that Ukraine has kicked off a sizeable attack across multiple areas in the south. Previously we were looking at the eastern flank in Zaporizhzhia but overnight it appears a second front was opened in the west. Th...

Here's our campaign with Car4Ukraine: https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-winter-offensive/

Today we're looking into Ukraine's continued push in the south as it appears they're clearing out the grey zone claimed by Russia in recent months. While the fog of war is still thick surrounding this operation, it does appear that Russian forces were cleared out of multiple areas of the southern front in a sim...

Couple unique operations last few days by Ukraine

Today we're looking at a few unique Ukrainian operations in different areas of the front. Near Pokrovsk, Omega went behind Russian lines to rescue one of their guys who was captured 27 days ago. Then near Kupyansk, K-2 used a UGV to transport a Russian POW to the rear. We take a look at s...

More to be done, but this is a good step

Today we're looking into a report that the US smuggled thousands of Starlink terminals into Iran to help the protesters during the recent government crackdowns. This comes as the US sends a second carrier strike group to the region as negotiations around their nuclear program continue.

Today we're looking into some recent developments in Ukraine where Russia seemingly has made a few bad decisions back to back.  After losing Starlink it looks like Russian soldiers fell for a Ukrainian trap and submitted their location and data to the Ukrainian military and then Russia went after Telegram.  These two together r...

This is a video taken during my recent trip to Ukraine as Legion and I drone the drone road from Izium to Sloviansk in the east, between 15-20km from the front. I thought it would be worthwhile to show what this main logistical corridor looks like right now as Legi...

We've seen this a few times before

Truck fundraiser for the 104th: https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-winter-offensive

Earlier today the Ukrainian 'I Want to Live" project published a video showing Russians targeting their own soldiers as they tried to surrender. While we can't verify from this clip with 100% confidence that's the case, it fits a pattern of Russia doing just this and does contradict Ukrainian goals of ...

Today we're looking into new reports that Ukraine has kicked off offensive operations in the south. By now these have been confirmed by both Russian and Ukrainian sources but the scope of the operations is still a little murky. For now it appears that Ukraine may be mopping up locations where a few Russian ...

At this pace, the next few months could be wild

Truck fundraiser: https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-winter-offensive

A new report from the Ukrainian unmanned systems forces says that more than 30,000 Russian soldiers were killed in January. This despite a slow down in assaults during the cold spell. If this keeps up, we could see staggering numbers when the weather clears.

This might be why Trump wants to restart nuclear tests

Today we're looking at a new accusation from the US State Department saying that China secretly conducted nuclear tests in 2020. This would mark the first test by anyone other than North Korea since 1998 and has arms control experts worried about the possibility of a new arms race.
