Russia launched a massive missile and drone strike on Ukrainian energy infrastructure while critical peace negotiations were underway in Abu Dhabi. This escalation coincides with a dramatic collapse in Russian oil revenue and the permanent loss of major Indian energy contracts, significantly impacting the Kremlin's ability to fund the invasion.

The video analyses the latest front-line developments near Pokrovsk and Huliaipole, where Ukrainian forces successfully repelled unusual quad bike assaults and intercepted hundreds of Shahed drones equipped with Starlink terminals. It examines the daring French seizure of a sanctioned Russian "dark fleet" tanker in the Mediterranean and the growing energy crisis within Russia, following strikes on the Penza oil depot and power failures at the Northern Fleet base in Severomorsk. Jonathan MS Pearce provides expert commentary on the presence of Kyrylo Budanov at the negotiating table and the international rush to supply generators to Kyiv to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe.
