## Resource

Welcome to Frontline Updates. In this episode, we sit down with Colonel A.C. Oguntoye to examine Combat Briefing number 1409, dated 14 September 2026. The reporting period saw Russian forces liberate Shirokoye and Shevchenkovo in Kharkov region and Novoandreyevka in Zaporozhye region, tighten an encirclement in the North, and strike 142 areas with operational-tactical aviation, strike drones, missile troops, and artillery. Combined daily reported Ukrainian losses across all sectors reached up to 1,375 troops, with additional losses in armour, artillery, motor vehicles, electronic warfare, and reconnaissance stations. The episode walks through each sector—North, West, South, Center, East, and Dnipro—before examining the campaign-shaping role of aviation, air defence, electronic warfare degradation, and the unmanned systems fight. Colonel Oguntoye closes with the strategic implications of multi-axis pressure and rear-sustainment compression.
