• Drone Warfare Escalates Ukraine strikes Russian missile bases and airfields, plans to produce 2.5 million drones in 2025, as Trump praises its “badass” tactics.
• Battlefield Tensions Russian forces advance in Sumy, aiming for a buffer zone, while Ukraine hits back with attacks on Crimea, Bryansk, and Kursk.
• Western Support Britain delivers a record Ramstein aid package, and the Netherlands pledges more aid, bolstering Ukraine’s defense capabilities.
• Economic Dynamics Ukraine tackles its budget deficit and plans a hydrogen plant for EU exports, but agriculture and real estate sectors face shortages amid ongoing conflict. We explore how these developments create opportunities in defense tech, logistics, and green energy, balanced against risks in agriculture and infrastructure.

In this episode, hosts Dmytro and Yuliia analyze Ukraine’s Operation Operation Spiderweb:

• Operation Spiderweb: Ukraine’s SBU claims it has damaged or destroyed over 40 Russian strategic bombers in a coordinated drone operation. OSINT has visually confirmed at least 7 losses so far. These include Tu-95MS and Tu-22M3 aircraft central to Russia’s long-range missile strikes. The operation significantly degrades Russia’s ability to launch cruise missile attacks, reducing threats to Ukrainian cities.
• Targeting the Archer: After enduring weeks of overwhelming missile and drone barrages, Ukraine is now hitting the platforms that launch them. Analysts suggest this move could force Russia to reassess its escalation calculus — especially as the bombers targeted are also part of its nuclear triad.
• Escalatory Signaling Expected: Moscow is likely to respond with strategic messaging and attempts to portray the operation as a dangerous escalation. Potential diplomatic fallout could impact Trump-led peace initiatives, with Russia expected to exploit the moment to reframe its global narrative.
• Strategic Deterrence Rewritten: By striking deep inside Russian airbases, Ukraine has redefined the rules of engagement. While the full impact remains to be seen, the message is clear: Ukraine is prepared to disable the sources of destruction — not just intercept them.
• June 2nd Istanbul Talks: Ukraine submits memorandum, but no progress except a new swap deal.
