During a meeting with members of the Russian State Duma, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin made a series of statements regarding the war of aggression against Ukraine and Russia’s economic situation.

Last night, the Defense Forces carried out precision strikes against strategic targets in Russia, the aggressor nation. Among other things, they succeeded in striking an export terminal and oil refineries deep within Russian territory.

On the night of July 26, units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces, as part of a systematic effort to undermine the aggressor state’s military and economic capabilities, carried out a series of precision strikes against key military and energy facilities controlled by the occupiers.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that, according to intelligence reports, Russia is preparing to expand its mobilization this fall and plans to recruit about 30,000 more troops from North Korea.

On the night of July 24–25, the Ukrainian Defense Forces, in coordination with the Security Service of Ukraine, carried out a series of effective long-range strikes against naval, industrial, and defense facilities on Russian territory and in the waters of the Caspian Sea.

On the morning of July 25, in Yekaterinburg, Russia (Sverdlovsk Oblast), located more than 1,700 kilometers from the border with Ukraine, explosions were heard and a fire broke out near the Wildberries logistics complex.

On the night of July 24–25, several regions in Russia came under drone attack. In the Rostov Region, a series of explosions triggered fires, damaged civilian and border infrastructure, and resulted in casualties.

Over the past 48 hours, the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ unmanned systems have struck 19 energy facilities in the temporarily occupied territories, including 17 in Crimea.

Following the Russian missile strike on the Kyiv region, which resulted in casualties and injuries among representatives of Ukraine’s defense-industrial complex, the Ukrainian Gunmakers’ Council announced its intention to implement additional security measures for companies in the industry.

Denys Shtilierman, chief designer at Fire Point, released footage of the Flamingo missile launch, hinting that this was the weapon used by the Ukrainian Defense Forces to carry out a successful strike on the Aviatek aircraft factory in the Russian city of Kirov.
