Mexico eliminates CJNG’s top cartel leader. Two U.S. carrier strike groups remain positioned near Iran. Pakistan and Afghanistan exchange airstrikes. And China may arm Iran with a hypersonic anti-ship missile.

In this week’s Carry On Podcast – SITREP (February 26th), Brad “Iceman” Colbert breaks down escalating global flashpoints and the strategic consequences behind the headlines.

🔹 Largest U.S. Middle East force posture in decades
🔹 F-22 deployment to Israel and dual carrier strike groups
🔹 Iran negotiations and escalation risk in CENTCOM
🔹 U.S.–Ukraine talks and NATO posture in Europe
🔹 Indo-Pacific tensions with China and Philippine exercises
🔹 CJNG cartel leader killed in Mexico — U.S. intelligence support revealed
🔹 China’s potential sale of CM-302 anti-ship missiles to Iran
🔹 Pakistan airstrikes inside Afghanistan targeting TTP and ISIS-K
🔹 The growing instability along the Afghanistan–Pakistan border

From cartel warfare and maritime interdictions to hypersonic missile proliferation and tribal insurgencies, this episode connects the operational dots — without hype and without partisan spin.

If you follow geopolitics, military strategy, counterterrorism, border security, or emerging global conflicts, this SITREP delivers context you won’t get in mainstream headlines.
