Ukraine: The Latest8 Okt 2025

Russian gas production ‘buckles’ under Ukrainian strikes & Kremlin enforces blackout on foreign SIM cards

Day 1,323

Today, as Moscow tightens restrictions on gas sales and mobile networks amid Ukraine’s escalating campaign against Moscow’s oil industry, reports emerge that Russian workers are being told to halt operations as “preemptive measures” against drone attacks. We also discuss Dom and Francis’s appearance on Russian state TV, and speak with Australia’s military representative to NATO and the EU about the broader implications for the war.
