در این قسمت از برنامه، مجتبا پورمحسن در گزارش روزش، به انتصاب حسین طائب به عنوان رئیس سازمان بسیج با حکم مجتبی خامنه‌ای می‌پردازد و از تعیین ماموریت ویژه او برای سرکوب اعتراض‌های ضدحکومتی با افزایش نیروهای بسیج می‌گوید.

بازندگان و برندگان انتصابات جدید در جمهوری اسلامی چه کسانی‌اند و آرایش جدید قدرت چه چیزی به ما می‌گوید؟ انتصاب محسن رضایی به دبیری شورای عالی امنیت ملی و حسین طائب به فرماندهی بسیج، دو پیام مهم دارد؛ یکی رو به بیرون، درباره مذاکره، جنگ و رویارویی با آمریکا، و دیگری رو به داخل، درباره مهم‌ترین نگرانی حکومت: خطر خیزش دوباره مردم ایران. در حالی که هنوز درباره زنده یا مرده بودن مجتبی خامنه‌ای و میزان سلامت او تردید وجود دارد، سپردن بسیج به حسین طائب، یکی از نزدیک‌ترین افراد به مجتبی، یک پیام روشن دارد: نگرانی اصلی حکومت، خیابان است.

Russia may be preparing for another major mobilization—and inside Russia, the warning signs are getting harder to ignore.

In this update, we go inside Russia to examine a military enlistment notice received by a 38-year-old Russian, damage at a Wildberries facility in the Tula region, and a growing queue at a Moscow Rosneft gas station. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Ukrainian intelligence has confirmed Russian preparations for a new mobilization after parliamentary elections, potentially involving several hundred thousand additional Russians.

Then we turn to Ukraine’s next major danger: winter. The Institute for the Study of War and Ukrainian officials are warning that Russia is likely to intensify attacks against Ukraine’s energy infrastructure while Kyiv continues to face shortages of critical air-defense interceptors.

From Russian mobilization to missiles, energy infrastructure, Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia and other major Ukrainian cities, the direction of this war is becoming increasingly clear.

The mood at the front is optimistic, but still a lot to do

Today we're joined by Dara Massicot. Dara is a senior fellow in the Russia and Eurasia Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace where her work focuses on defense and security issues and she’s just back from a research trip to the front lines in Ukraine.

We get into the varying targets for Ukrainian strikes, how they coordinate efforts at that depth, major issues facing the two countries for the rest of the year and more.

در این قسمت از برنامه، مجتبا پورمحسن در گزارش روزش، به انتصاب محسن رضایی به عنوان دبیر شورای عالی امنیت ملی با اراده مجتبی خامنه‌ای می‌پردازد و از نقش او در فرماندهی برنامه رهبر سوم جمهوری اسلامی در جنگ با امریکا و جنگ داخلی با مردم می‌گوید.

آرایش جدید قدرت در جمهوری اسلامی. بعد از کشته شدن دو لایه از مقامات ارشد و فرماندهان نظامی سرشناس جمهوری اسلامی در جنگ با اسراییل و آمریکا، حالا مجتبی خامنه‌ای رهبر جدید در شرایطی که هنوز هیچکس خود او را در انظار عمومی ندیده، فرماندهان جدیدی را برای نیروهای مسلح تعیین کرده و محسن رضایی، فرمانده سابق سپاه، را نیز به عنوان دبیر شورای عالی امنیت ملی تعیین کرده است که حالا مهم‌ترین نهاد حکومتی جمهوری اسلامی بعد از رهبر به شما می‌رود.

Ukraine is heading into a dangerous fall and winter—and the warning signs are already here: fuel infrastructure under attack, ballistic interceptors under severe pressure, and Russia expanding missile and drone production.

In this technical update, we hear directly from President Zelenskyy, Ukrainian technology adviser “Flash,” GUR deputy chief Vadym Skibitsky, and Magyar about what Ukraine is preparing for. We break down Russia’s attacks on gas stations and energy infrastructure, the growing North Korean role, Russia’s missile production, the 11,000-strike-UAV target, and why ballistic missile defense remains one of Ukraine’s most urgent vulnerabilities.

This isn’t about doom and gloom. It’s about understanding the reality Ukraine is preparing to face—and what its partners must do before winter arrives.

This gets worse for Russia the longer it goes on

Check out the doc on Ryan here: https://youtu.be/BDmUPUTQ7ms?si=YRpMbDS2I11797IO

Ukraine just struck a target more than 2,000km inside of Russian territory. That’s 1,242 miles for my fellow Americans which means roughly the distance from New York City to Miami Florida.
These deep strikes, especially those against refineries, are causing a fuel shortage in Russia. Despite Russian efforts to slow the bleed, we are still seeing videos of citizens lined up at the pump hoping the gas station doesn’t run out before they can fill up. And it’s worse in the occupied territories meaning that military transport along the southern land bridge is facing new challenges in keeping the front supplied.

A Russian court has removed Yabloko’s federal candidate list from the upcoming State Duma election — striking at the anti-war party campaigning for “peace, freedom, and life without fear.”

In this breaking report from Moscow, we go inside the courtroom for the ruling, examine the accusations used against Yabloko, and watch protesters gather outside chanting in support of the party and against the decision. Then the situation takes an even darker turn: young demonstrators are warned they have only minutes to disperse or risk being taken by bus to military recruitment offices.

What does this tell us about political competition, election control, opposition to the war in Ukraine, and the Kremlin’s mobilization pressure inside Russia?

Watch the evidence and judge for yourself.

در این قسمت از برنامه، مجتبا پورمحسن در گزارش روزش، به شش پیش‌شرط تازه جمهوری اسلامی برای بازگشایی تنگه هرمز و حملات نیابتی حوثی‌‌ها به عربستان سعودی می‌پردازد و شایان سمیعی، کارشناس امنیت ملی، از واکنش احتمالی دولت ترامپ به شروط سپاه می‌گوید.

با طولانی شدن مذاکرات آمریکا و جمهوری اسلامی، بحث حمله مستقل اسرائیل به جمهوری اسلامی جدی‌تر شده و نارضایتی اسرائیل از ادامه مذاکرات رو به افزایش است.
اسرائیل که مذاکره با جمهوری اسلامی را بی‌فایده می‌داند، معتقد است اکنون بهترین زمان برای حمله به جمهوری اسلامی است.

Garry Kasparov is asking the question NATO still hasn’t answered: if Western forces could help shoot down Iranian missiles headed for Israel, why not Russian missiles headed for Ukraine?

That question comes as Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan warns that if Russia reaches a survival-level crisis, Moscow could turn to whatever “last resort” it has available.

Meanwhile, Russia launched major attacks on Odesa and Zhytomyr, damaging energy infrastructure, homes, and a German-owned automotive plant employing roughly 3,500 people. Ukraine answered by destroying a long-targeted Russian S-400 system near Gelendzhik and striking additional Russian air-defense and military targets.

President Zelenskyy says every Russian strike will be answered and that the campaign against Russian oil is becoming increasingly painful for Moscow. Magyar then lays out his five conditions for how this war ultimately ends: Russia must lose the financial, military, logistical, manpower, and political capacity to continue.

Where does this escalation lead—and should NATO finally help defend Ukrainian airspace?

This could be the new normal for quite a while

It’s looking more and more that we’ve reached an impasse in Iran.
Trump will not accept Iran's newest terms as that would signal a clear US defeat. However, a significant escalation to change the dynamics also seems unlikely. That leaves us with how things sit today: Iran with de-facto control of the Strait of Hormuz. Sanctions will stay in place and economic relief won't be granted, but real nuclear negotiations probably won't come together anytime soon.

Now President Trump remains optimistic just a few hours ago stating "It will work out. It always works out.”
