Russia can’t ignore this

Ukraine is fighting another war against Russia right now. Not just against its military, but against its psychology.

The long-range strikes inside Russia are increasing. Night after night, those red arrows appear across the map. Oil refineries burn. Fuel becomes harder to find. Warehouses and logistics networks are disrupted. A war that many Russians once experienced through a television screen is becoming harder to ignore in everyday life.

But there is a much bigger picture.

I’ve just returned from the front lines around Kramatorsk, and the reality there is difficult. Russia continues to grind forward, slowly but persistently, while Ukraine faces serious pressure from manpower shortages. A few metres may sound insignificant. Over weeks and months, those metres add up.

That is why I believe we are watching a race against time.

Can Ukraine use long-range strikes to damage Russia’s war economy, logistics and sense of security quickly enough to change the balance before Russia’s numerical advantage produces further gains on the battlefield?

The truth from the front isn’t always comfortable. But telling you what I actually see, rather than what I think people want to hear, is why I made this channel.

I hope you find this report interesting. If you do, please leave a comment telling me what stood out to you and what you’d like me to investigate next. It genuinely helps the channel, and I read your feedback.

Thank you for watching.
