PDB Afternoon Bulletin | January 30th, 2026: White House Considers Commando Raids Inside Iran & Putin Pauses Kyiv Attacks At Trump's Request

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: 

• First—the White House is dramatically expanding its playbook against Iran, with President Trump reportedly considering some of the most aggressive military options in years. The most consequential: the possibility of U.S. special operations raids inside Iranian territory. We’ll have the details.

• Later in the show—After weeks of punishing attacks on Ukraine’s power grid, Russia has temporarily halted airstrikes on Kyiv at President Trump’s urging. But with fighting continuing elsewhere and no ceasefire in place, Ukraine remains deeply skeptical about Moscow’s intentions.
