Operational lessons from Ukraine’s deep-strike campaign

from The World of Intelligence

In this episode of World of Intelligence, hosts Kate Cox and Sean Corbett are joined by Alexander Stronell, Manager of OSINT Force Monitoring (OFM), and Miko Vranic, Lead Russia analyst, to unpack one of the most daring operations of the Ukraine-Russia conflict – ‘Operation Spiderweb’. Together, they break down how in June 2025 Ukraine executed a meticulously planned series of drone strikes reaching deep into Russian territory, disrupting strategic bomber bases from European Russia to the Far East. The team explores the tactical ingenuity behind the attacks, the intelligence tradecraft used to assess the damage, and the ripple effects across Russia’s long range aviation and nuclear deterrent posture.
