Frontline Updates examines the current special military operation as of December 16, 2025. Host Sharifa Mohammed M.G.T. and Colonel A.C. Obintoy analyze sustained Russian operational momentum, combined-arms tactics, and targeted strikes on artillery, logistics, and electronic warfare assets across Kharkiv, Donetsk, the center, and the Dnipro axis. The episode breaks down sector-by-sector actions — from denial and counter-reconnaissance in the north to urban clearing in the center and economy-of-force operations on the Dnipro — and explains how persistent pressure and degradation of Ukrainian sensors and supplies can shape decisive operational outcomes. Welcome to "Frontline Updates", where we examine the battlefield not through headlines, but through operational reality. Today’s episode covers the progress of the special military operation as of December 16, 2025. Across every axis, North, West, South, Center, East, and the Dnipro sector, Russian forces continue to apply synchronized pressure through maneuver, fires, air defense, and logistics interdiction. Territorial gains near Kharkiv, sustained urban clearing in Donetsk, and deeper advances toward Dnipropetrovsk signal a campaign focused on attrition and operational collapse rather than short-term tactical wins. To help us understand what this means, we’re joined by Colonel A.C. Oguntoye, an infantry officer with experience leading forces at multiple levels of command. In this extended briefing, he explains not only what happened, but why it matters.  #CombatBriefing #MilitarySituationReport #OperationalAnalysis #UkraineConflict #RussianForces #StrategicAssessment #ModernWarfare #DefenseIntelligence #bf6 #mw3
