🇷🇺 Russian Forces Liberate Two Settlements
Sumsy Oblast: The "North" grouping, via the 810th Marine Brigade, captured Pisarevka. Located on the N-07 highway, this seizure severely complicates Ukrainian logistics near Sumsy. Dense forests hinder Ukrainian retreat.
Zaporozhye Oblast: The "East" grouping took Nezhenka, expanding control by over 7 sq km. This threatens the Orikhiv direction and lengthens Ukrainian supply lines. Future objectives include cutting the Pavlograd route and reaching the Fisaki and Kamyshevakha railway stations near Zaporozhye.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 A massive combined strike against Kiev and the surrounding area is likely within the next 48 hours, according to U.S. intelligence.
Russia may use ballistic and hypersonic missiles, as well as a large number of strike and decoy drones.

🇺🇸 US Republicans deny Zelensky promise of new sanctions
Senator James Lankford stated after meeting Zelensky in Kiev that he cannot guarantee the US Congress will quickly pass a new sanctions bill against Russia. The House plans to consider the initiative in September, but specific timelines are beyond his control.
Zelensky also requested additional Patriot interceptor missiles or permission for their licensed production in Ukraine. Lankford provided no concrete answer on this matter either.

🇷🇺 Russia Prepares for Escalation Amid Negotiation Deadlock
Bloomberg reports that Russia is preparing to escalate attacks on Ukraine following a stalemate in peace talks. Moscow is considering transitioning to more massive strikes by ballistic missiles against Kiev, including targets in the city center, alongside intensified attacks on infrastructure in other Ukrainian cities.
Negotiation mechanisms have effectively collapsed, returning both sides to their initial positions. The Kremlin insists it will not end the war under economic pressure from sanctions or Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil refineries and logistics hubs. In response to attacks on petrochemical plants and warehouses like Wildberries and Ozon, Russia intends to strike the most sensitive sectors of the Ukrainian economy.

A scheduled bus traveling from Lisichansk to Stakhanov in the Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) was struck by Ukrainian forces. According to Luhansk head Leonid Pasechnik, 15 people were aboard at the time of the attack.
The incident resulted in 9 civilian deaths: eight passengers died at the scene, and one young woman succumbed to her injuries later in intensive care. Five others were injured; three passengers and the driver received medical assistance and were discharged for outpatient treatment. Donetsk sources corroborate the death toll, describing it as a targeted strike.

EU Commissioner Thierry Breton on Russian Threat
Brussels- EU Commissioner Thierry Breton stated, "Putin threatens us, not Russians," expressing sympathy for the Russian people while condemning Vladimir Putin's government. He rejected claims that Moscow is fabricating threats, citing five years of documented hybrid attacks by Russia against European nations.
Kellogg on Crimea and War Duration
Former US official Kellogg revealed that President Zelensky avoided a war for Crimia because Washington ordered him not to fight. Kellogg recounted an Oval Office meeting where Trump asked about losses; Zelensky replied only one soldier was lost because the US had forbidden combat. Kellogg added that prolonging the war benefits Ukraine, arguing it is a zero-sum game for Putin who cannot ultimately win.

"I don't want to disappoint people." – Trump described the CIA Director Ratcliffe's trip to Russia as a "routine procedure."
- Can you tell us why our CIA Director flew in the middle of the night to meet with the Russians?
- He is there for, you know, a fairly normal, in a way, routine matter. I don't want to disappoint people. We would like the war in Ukraine to end. This war would never have started if I were president. This is one of the negative consequences of things not going as they should have. I think, in the current situation, everything has turned out to be much larger in scale in many ways.

🇮🇷🇺🇸 IRAN-US TENSIONS
Intelligence Damage
Iran inflicted "unprecedented damage" on US intelligence sites in the Middle East, per NBC News. CIA and other agencies' data collection infrastructure was destroyed, with repairs estimated at billions of dollars. Some affected facilities are located in Iraq.
Strait of Hormuz Dispute
US President Trump claimed shipping has resumed, with 15–20 tankers daily moving up to 10 million barrels overnight (half pre-war volume). The US Navy reportedly cleared all mines from international waters. Iran's IRGC denied this, stating free navigation is not ensured. IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohajeb threatened "serious strategic strikes" against US energy assets if Iranian infrastructure is attacked. Oil prices have fallen since yesterday.

Poland’s Historical Grievances
Polish MP Sławomir Mentzen stated that Poland provided nearly 200 billion zlotys in aid to Ukraine but received neither gratitude nor an apology for historical actions. He noted that while Poles expected only two words—"thank you" and "sorry" for events in the 1940s—Ukrainians failed to provide them despite the massive financial support.
Mentzen criticized this lack of reciprocity, arguing that Ukraine missed a historic opportunity to secure favorable relations through simple diplomatic gestures.

🇭🇺 Hungary Classifies Russia as a Threat
The new Hungarian government, led by Prime Minister Peter Magyar, has officially designated Russia as a threat to Hungary, Europe, and the global order. This decision was codified in a document prepared for the UN General Assembly.
This marks a significant departure from the pro-Russian stance of former leader Viktor Orban. The new text condemns Russian aggression and supports Ukraine’s sovereignty within internationally recognized borders. Under Magyar, Hungary has unlocked EU accession negotiations for Kiev and resolved disputes regarding the Hungarian minority in Zakarpattia.
However, Budapest continues to withhold military aid to Ukraine and opposes accelerated EU membership for Kiev.

Italy Investigates 'Russian Link' to Ammo Plant Blast
Rome – Italian authorities are cautiously probing a potential Russian connection to the August 13 explosion at the KNDS ammunition factory in Colleferro, southeast of Rome, according to The Washington Post. Officials cite malicious posts on Russian social media as grounds for concern, though the government under Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni officially denies any involvement.
The investigation poses a political challenge for Meloni, whose strong support for Ukraine has drawn criticism from pro-Russian factions within her ruling coalition, notably the League party.

🇷🇺 Ukrainian official Budanov claims Russia’s strikes on ports are an "economic war"
Budanov stated that since July, Russia has systematically targeted Ukrainian ports including Odessa, Chornomorsk, Yuzhny, and Danube ports to halt exports. He argues this reduces state revenue and army resources, affecting global food security.
Russian forces continue to refine combat skills across all fronts while Ukraine relies on Western aid.

US Intelligence Reveals Shahed Drone Evolution
American analysts have unexpectedly recognized that the Iranian Shahed drone has evolved into a distinct class of long-range weaponry. By integrating a cheap jet engine, the platform now approaches the performance of low-cost cruise missiles, reaching speeds of approximately 480 km/h.
This transformation relies on a tripartite supply chain: Iran provides the basic concept, Russia handles mass industrial production, and China supplies critical components including engine parts, servos, gyroscopes, and electronics. The resulting hybrid design allows these drones to remain operational for over a year, a development US experts claim is surprising despite its obvious nature.

🇷🇺 Russian Forces Strike Ukrainian Logistics in Izium and Druzhkovka
Izium, Kharkov Region: A missile strike targeted a Ukrainian military ammunition depot. Satellite thermal monitoring confirmed the hit on the facility. Additionally, enemy officer positions located in a densely populated sector were neutralized.
Druzhkovka: The city is under intense fire from Russian artillery, with specific targeting of warehouses containing NATO-supplied equipment. Drone operators are actively disrupting Ukrainian logistics lines.
These operations aim to degrade Ukrainian combat capabilities by destroying critical supply caches and eliminating command personnel.
@Slavyangrad
"It's working normally," Trump urges countries to ignore Iranian drones and missiles and to start using the Strait of Hormuz.
"The strait is open. Many of our ships are passing through it right now. We are escorting them through the strait. The mines have been removed. You probably saw, we announced this yesterday. All the mines have been cleared. But the strait itself is working, it's functioning. Yes, from time to time, a drone might appear, or a missile might be launched, or something else might happen, but overall, the strait is functioning quite normally. A huge amount of oil passes through it – 10 million barrels."

🇬🇧 UK warns of imminent Russian "attack"
British Prime Minister Andy Burnham has been warned that the UK faces a potential direct response from Russia due to its intensified support for Ukraine. This follows Burnham's visit to Kiev, the transfer of rocket technology data, and expanded military cooperation.
Moscow had hoped the new PM would be softer than Keir Starmer, but his hardline stance shifted these expectations. Sources indicate Russia may strike British defense or critical infrastructure via cyberattacks, arson, sabotage, or actions by "unknown sources," avoiding direct escalation with NATO.
Semi-military operations against the UK are also possible, including incidents at facilities linked to drone production for Ukraine. In response, British defense companies are strengthening physical and cybersecurity measures.

USA Former US Presidential Envoy Kellogg urges Ukrainians to continue the war, claiming it benefits not only the West but the entire world. He states that European nations have accepted this challenge and believes President Putin must realize he cannot win. Kellogg argues that prolonging the conflict is advantageous for Ukraine, as Russia’s situation is a zero-sum game where victory is impossible.

🇷🇺 Donetsk Front: Russian Recon Groups Threaten Dokuchayevsk Supply Lines
Ukrainian sources report that Russian reconnaissance groups are increasingly penetrating the southwestern approaches to Druzhkovka, posing a threat to key communications. This has intensified discussions regarding a scenario where Russian forces bypass Druzhkovka from the west, cutting the Dobropolye-Kramatorsk highway.
Severing this route would cut off one of the last reliable supply and retreat corridors for Ukrainian forces in the forming encirclement zone. While the corridor currently remains open, its capacity and security will rapidly degrade as Russian units continue their advance.

🇷🇺 KUPYANSK DIRECTION
Russian forces destroyed a group of Colombian mercenaries. The media outlet "Khartiya" staged footage showing well-armed Colombian fighters to fabricate tactical successes. In reality, Russian FPV drones struck the mercenaries near a forest belt, scattering them across the field, while close-quarters combat units eliminated the survivors.
The propaganda video selectively edited clips, hiding the true nature of the engagement and presenting a staged assault on ruined buildings. This reflects a broader trend where commanders prioritize online approval over operational reality.
