Summary

A video allegedly showing the capture and interrogation of Australian Oscar Jenkins, who fought for Ukraine, has raised concerns.

In the footage, Jenkins, bound and struck during questioning, identifies himself as a 32-year-old biologist.

The Australian government is working to verify the video and ensure his wellbeing, urging Russia to uphold international humanitarian law for prisoners of war.

Ukrainian Australian groups called for urgent efforts to secure Jenkins’ release.

Summary

Ukraine’s 13th National Guard Brigade conducted its first all-robot assault, using ground and aerial drones to clear Russian positions in Kharkiv Oblast.

The operation involved surveillance, explosive, and gun-armed robots, demonstrating Ukraine’s advanced military robotics.

While robots excel in surveillance and attack, their limitations in holding ground, particularly against jamming and maintenance challenges, underscore the continued importance of human infantry.

Russia began its Feb 2022 invasion with a massive force advantage over Ukraine in the Black Sea - but over time we've seen the Russian fleet steadily pushed back by a Ukrainian strategy of sea denial driven by anti-ship missiles, reconnaissance drones and, critically, USVs (AKA naval drones)

Those drones have evolved rapidly, to the point where now we've seen them launching rockets or fighting back against helicopters.

So in this episode, I look at the Black Sea campaign since our 2023 update, and examine the evolution of Ukrainian USVs and the Russian response.
