در این قسمت از برنامه، مجتبا پورمحسن در گزارش روزش، به شروط تازه جمهوری اسلامی برای بازگشایی تنگه هرمز و اعلام آمادگی قالیباف برای جنگ می‌پردازد و شهرام خلدی، پژوهشگر روابط بین‌الملل، از واکنش احتمالی ترامپ به جاه‌طلبی‌های تهران پیش از انتخابات میان‌دوره‌ای می‌گوید.

ناپدید شدن ۱۳ صیاد ایرانی اهل بندر لنگه و بی‌توجهی مقامات و حتی رسانه‌های استانی به سرنوشت آن‌ها، نشان می‌دهد جان شهروندان در اولویت جمهوری اسلامی نیست.
این بی‌تفاوتی صرفاً غفلت نیست بلکه بازتاب رویکردی است که در آن انسان ایرانی و جان او از آخرین دغدغه‌های مسئولان حکومتی است.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:

- Israel bombs a Syrian airbase near the Turkish border, raising fears that its campaign to prevent Syria’s military revival could ignite a dangerous confrontation with Turkey.

- The Pentagon orders 30 American universities to investigate whether their foreign partnerships exposed sensitive research—or risk losing future federal funding.

A Ukrainian volunteer says the FSB used his own children to pressure him for information—and that he ultimately went to Russia rather than betray people in Ukraine or abandon his son. In this update, I share the now-confirmed story of Mykhailo Puryuchov and the extraordinary appeal he made publicly before placing himself in Russian hands.

We also have major political developments in Kyiv as Khamara and Andrii Sybiha move toward confirmation votes, plus new evidence from the Flamingo strike on Russia’s Progress Rocket Center. The damage could have consequences for Soyuz-2 production and Russia’s effort to deploy its own Starlink-style satellite network.

Russia is also dealing with fuel restrictions across multiple regions, while questions remain over possible Witkoff and Kushner travel to Kyiv or Moscow. And Ukraine is watching another potentially dangerous development: reconnaissance drones over western Ukraine, tactical aviation movements, loaded Kalibr missiles, and other indicators Greg believes could point toward preparations for another large Russian strike.

This morning, NATO has deployed large aircraft forces around Putin’s Kaliningrad region next to the Polish border in what appears to be a sudden and urgent show-of-force. We are currently monitoring ongoing developments. In the meantime, NATO has also deployed several aircraft toward Northern Norway as it’s believed that Russian submarines are on the move out of Murmansk for some unknown reason. Meanwhile, Moscow came under the largest drone attack that it’s experienced in the last two years over the past 24 hours, with more than 600 UAVs targeted the capital as explosions rang out across the area. Meanwhile, Dubai has come under a missile attack from Iran as warnings were sent out to civilians to seek shelter, which marks the first Iranian attack on Dubai in Months.

Interview with soldiers in the south: https://youtu.be/l74r1s8y7uY

Senior officials are sounding the alarm in Russia, with a chief economist saying "We won't win the competition in this war of attrition. We're under the illusion that everything In Ukraine will collapse. It hasn't, and it won't. Our costs are mounting."

Now he was fired two days after this speech was made public, so let’s get into what he said and what’s looking like major problems headed Russia’s way in the near term.

در این قسمت از برنامه، مجتبا پورمحسن در گزارش روزش، به افشای جزئیات تازه از زندگی مخفیانه مجتبی خامنه‌ای در یک رسانه اسرائیلی و تایید تماس آمریکا با فرماندهان سپاه می‌‌پردازد و شایان سمیعی، کارشناس امنیت ملی، از چشم‌اندازه دولت ترامپ در برخورد با سپاه می‌گوید.

جمهوری اسلامی در حال ورود به یک دوره طوفانی است و در حال آماده کردن خود برای مقابله با این طوفان و غرق نشدن و در واقع سرنگون نشدن است. یک دوره طوفانی ۸۰ روزه که از الان شروع شده و تا انتخابات آمریکا ادامه خواهد داشت. دوره‌ای از شدیدترین فشارهای اقتصادی و حتی احتمال بالای درگیری و جنگ گسترده‌تر با آمریکا و خیزش مجدد مردم.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:

• New intelligence reveals the alarming scope of Iran’s plan to widen the war across the Middle East—including coordinated proxy attacks, threats against Gulf energy facilities, sabotage operations, and possible incursions into neighboring countries.

• President Trump scales back major US-South Korean military exercises, giving Kim Jong Un a concession North Korea has demanded for years without securing anything in return.

A Russian missile has exploded in Romania after flying directly towards the Capitol of the country. the missile fell short, landing in a cornfield near the city, which was detected from Chisinau. Moldovan authorities have cleared the area, and begin an investigation. Iran has declared an offensive against the United States, now with the US starting a withdrawal from the region. As a result of this Iran has already attacked several vessels over the past 48 hours, and has seized a UAE owned vessel for not paying transit fees through the Strait. Meanwhile Russia is now suffering a major fuel shortage once again due to the refinery strikes.

Ukraine’s war is moving on several fronts at once. In this update, we go inside Russia to examine footage from Moscow showing a long fuel line on one side of the road and a burning Wildberries warehouse on the other — then use the visible GPS coordinates and street imagery to verify the location.

We then turn to Mykhailo Fedorov’s major interview and his warning about what it may take to force Russia to end this war. Fedorov says Ukraine will have its own ballistic missile and gives a three-to-six-month estimate for when one could strike a target inside Russia. That comes as Ukraine continues debating key government appointments and protesters keep demanding Fedorov’s return.

And in Zaporizhia, we see another brutal reality of civilian life near the front: a minibus fitted with anti-drone cage protection to survive Russian FPV attacks. Shortly before recording, a new image arrived showing that same minibus destroyed. At the time of this video, information about possible injuries had not been confirmed. I also explain why I am holding back a separate FSB blackmail story until the evidence can be fully verified.

After the drones, someone has to go in and clear it out

Check out our ongoing fundraiser here: https://givebutter.com/Southern_Front

A few days ago we learned that Ukraine had been conducting a major counteroffensive in the south over the last few months. Those operations, combined, led to over 745 sq km cleared and 26 villages returned to Ukrainian control. Part of the reason for that success is that it was kept secret. Clearance after clearance went off without a public mention from the Ukrainian military.

Today we’re joined by two soldiers that took part in some of those operations. Rojhat and SOUPS are team leaders in the Black Talon Group, an organization fighting in the Ukrainian SSO or Special Operations Forces. We focus on some of their close quarters tactics. How they go about clearing buildings when they know Russians are inside, challenges of infil and exfil and a crazy story about a recent MEDEVAC that goes to show that the ‘golden hour’ really isn’t a thing in this war.

Iran’s ruling regime may appear deeply entrenched—but history has shown that seemingly unshakable governments can collapse with astonishing speed. Could growing economic pressure, internal divisions and the loss of support from Russia and China bring Tehran to a similar breaking point?

Mike Baker speaks with Victoria Coates, former deputy national security advisor and vice president at the Heritage Foundation, about the vulnerabilities inside Iran, the intelligence partnerships exposing the regime’s weaknesses and why she refuses to give up on the Iranian people.

David Hookstead talks about NATO fighter jets scrambling to shoot down a Russian attack drone over Romania. The Koledino Wildberries distribution center and Moscow were also hit extremely hard. Russian President Vladimir Putin also continues to target Moldova and the Polish military is putting its might on display.
