“Seeing the isolation of Crimea and making it untenable is underway.”

The Kursk bridge has been “damaged enough” by Ukraine meaning that the Russians are using the Crimean bridge as their major supply line, says Lieutenant General Ben Hodges who explains how it can be “easily hit” by Zelensky’s drones.

Within the last year, logistics has become the defining problem of the war in Ukraine for both the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the Russian military. This video explores how weapons, artillery shells, drones, and fuel actually move from factory floors to the frontlines, and why supply chains are now just as contested as the battlefields themselves.

Russia fires an estimated 120,000 artillery shells and launches 3,000 drones every month, while Ukraine fires 60,000 shells and deploys 125,000 FPV drones. But the real fight is keeping these supplies moving across a frontline more than 1,200 kilometers long. From American factories in Scranton to Polish hubs in Rzeszów, and from Russian depots in Rostov to the last-mile resupply near Pokrovsk, both sides face drone ambushes, cyberattacks, HIMARS strikes, and fuel shortages that threaten to grind their war machines to a halt. This is the story of how logistics wins, or loses, the war in Ukraine.
