War in Ukraine

On the evening of August 1, an enemy FPV drone struck a passenger minibus in the Dnipropetrovsk region. Civilian passengers were on board at the time of the attack.

Units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces and the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine carried out a series of strikes against key military and logistical facilities of the Russian occupiers. As a result of these operations, critical supply routes and reconnaissance assets were disrupted, and expensive Russian military equipment was destroyed in southern Ukraine and in occupied Crimea.

On the morning of August 1, drones attacked the grounds of the “Bashneft-Ufaneftekhim” oil refinery in Ufa (Republic of Bashkortostan, Russian Federation). A fire broke out on the grounds of the industrial complex.

On the night of July 31, Russian forces launched a massive combined strike on Ukrainian territory, firing 35 missiles of various types and 185 attack drones. The main target of the strike was Kyiv and the Kyiv region. During the attack, Ukrainian air defense forces managed to shoot down only one enemy ballistic missile – due to a critical shortage of interceptor missiles for the Patriot systems.

The number of people injured in last night’s ballistic attack by Russian occupiers on Kyiv has risen to 30. Nine people were killed, including a police officer who was on duty. Damage of varying degrees has already been reported in seven districts of the capital.

Over the past day, Russian occupation forces continued to launch massive attacks on populated areas in the Kherson and Mykolaiv regions. The enemy used aircraft, heavy artillery, and various types of drones to strike civilian infrastructure and residential neighborhoods.

Over the past 24 hours, on July 31, Russian occupation forces carried out more than a thousand strikes on the territory of Zaporizhzhia Oblast, using aircraft, drones, artillery, and multiple-launch rocket systems. As a result of the shelling, there has been one fatality and several injuries among the civilian population.

On the night of August 1, Russian forces attacked Kyiv with ballistic missiles. Nine people are known to have been killed and 27 wounded. Fires, damage, and falling debris were reported in various parts of the capital.

During the Russian attack on Poltava, the “Nova Poshta” sorting terminal was destroyed. The employees who were on shift managed to take cover.

Ihor Obolienskyi, commander of the “Khartiia” Brigade, commented on the attempted assassination against him.
