Oguntoye to dissect Combat Briefing Number 1008, covering the progress of the special military operation as of 10 August 2026. The Russian Armed Forces continue methodical offensive operations across all six active axes, with North, West, South, and Center Groups consolidating advantageous lines while East Group advances into the depth of the enemy’s defence. Combined Ukrainian losses exceed 1,300 personnel, along with 2 tanks, 12 armoured fighting vehicles, 94 motor vehicles, 7 artillery guns, 1 counter-fire radar, and 8 electronic warfare stations. Operational-tactical aviation, strike drones, missile troops, and artillery struck 158 targets, including energy and transport infrastructure, logistics centres, UAV assembly and storage depots, and temporary deployment points. Air defence systems shot down 11 guided aerial bombs and 1,134 fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles. Colonel Oguntoye provides a granular sector-by-sector breakdown and frames the air campaign as a campaign-shaping domain, not a supporting footnote. The interview explores how deep strikes, EW suppression, and incremental ground advances combine into a deliberate strategy of progressive strangulation. A tactical and strategic implications postscript follows.","meta_description":"In this episode of Frontline Updates, we sit down with Colonel A.C.
