In this episode of the Warcast, Jura Ibl is joined by international security expert Malcolm Nance and Ukrainian soldier Jan "Santa" Trcka (reporting directly from Kharkiv) to separate sci-fi from reality regarding Artificial Intelligence in modern warfare.While Silicon Valley talks about AI, Ukrainian defenders are deploying it. Santa breaks down the three game-changing technologies currently appearing on the battlefield: "Last Mile" targeting, "Mothership" carrier drones, and autonomous Swarms. Meanwhile, Malcolm Nance offers a critical look at Western defense industries and reveals details about a drone assassination attempt on President Zelensky.
In this episode, we tear apart Donald Trump's rapidly crumbling peace plan for Ukraine, which leaked last week. Santa, currently in Kherson under fire, is absolutely furious in today's episode. Nevertheless, we discussed the proposal's key nonsensical points with Malcolm Nance, and even as we recorded, we could watch the plan falling to pieces.

With over 170,000 Russian troops concentrated around the small city, Santa explains why Pokrovsk has become a symbol of Ukraine’s endurance — and a costly trap for the Russian army.They also discuss a remarkable story making headlines: the appearance of a Black Hawk helicopter in Pokrovsk — believed to be the very one crowdfunded by ordinary people in the Czech Republic and Slovakia and donated to Ukraine earlier this year. What started as a grassroots campaign has now become part of a real front-line operation.
In this first episode of The Ukrainian Legion Warcast, Czech host Jura Ibl, U.S. intelligence veteran Malcolm Nance, and frontline soldier Jan “Santa” Trčka discuss the latest developments in Ukraine’s counteroffensive near Donetsk, the devastating strikes on Russian fuel infrastructure, and the success of the Weapons to Ukraine initiative.
They also reveal what life really looks like in Kharkiv — a city living just 10 miles from the frontlines— and how Russian propaganda tries to twist the truth.
