July 21st, 2026: Ukraine Just Found Russia’s New Weak Spot & Houthis Close Strait To Saudis

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

• Ukraine appears to have found a new pressure point inside Russia. We examine why Kyiv is now targeting Russia's largest commercial logistics companies—and how disrupting the country's supply network could become the next phase of the drone war.

• Yemen's Houthis are expanding the fight. We'll explain why the group's newly announced naval blockade targeting Saudi Arabia and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait could threaten global shipping and energy markets.

• A U.S.-brokered plan enters a critical new phase in southern Lebanon as Israeli troops begin withdrawing from parts of the country and Lebanese forces move into areas long held by Israel.

• In today's Back of the Brief: Hamas has chosen a new leader. We introduce you to Khalil al-Hayya and examine what his leadership could mean for the future of the terrorist organization and the conflict with Israel.
