The PDB Situation Report | July 25th, 2026: The Next Phase Of The Iran War Has Begun & Russia Feels The Pain

In this episode of The PDB Situation Report:

• The war with Iran is expanding as the Houthis move into the fight, threatening Red Sea shipping and raising the risk of a much wider regional conflict. We're joined by Jonathan Schanzer of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies to discuss what happens next.
• We take you inside Russia, where fuel shortages and relentless Ukrainian drone strikes are making the war increasingly difficult for ordinary Russians to ignore. Konstantin Samoilov of the YouTube channel Inside Russia joins us with firsthand insight into how the conflict is reshaping daily life inside the country.
