War in Ukraine

The Solomyansky District Court of Kyiv remanded Vasyl Honcharuk-head of the Armada association and organizer of the arms exhibition in Kapitanivka, which was targeted by a Russian missile strike on July 24-into custody. The court granted the prosecutor’s office’s motion and ordered the suspect to be held in custody for 60 days without the right to post bail.

July 27 has been declared a Day of Mourning in Chernihiv for those who have died. Yesterday, two people, including a child, were killed as a result of yet another enemy attack on the city. Another 25 people were injured.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Russia is not showing any willingness to end the war and, according to Ukrainian intelligence, is preparing for a new wave of mobilization.

The death toll from the Russian missile strike on an arms exhibition in the village of Kapitanivka in the Kyiv region has risen to eleven. One of the victims died in the hospital. Meanwhile, the prosecutor’s office is demanding that the event’s organizer be taken into custody.

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.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated that today’s Russian strikes on civilian targets in Chernihiv and Zaporizhzhia “constitute deliberate acts of terror and have no military justification whatsoever.” He also called on international partners to tighten sanctions against Russia.

Earlier today, a Russian drone struck the ATB supermarket building in Chernihiv. Two people, including a child, were killed in the attack, and 13 others were injured.

On Sunday, July 26, Russian forces carried out a series of strikes on Zaporizhzhia over the course of several hours. The enemy used both attack drones and guided aerial bombs (GABs). The attacks resulted in one fatality and several injuries among the civilian population, as well as damage to infrastructure.

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.

On the night of July 25–26, Russian occupation forces launched another attack on the Ukrainian capital using ballistic missiles and drones. As a result of the enemy attack, fires broke out in three districts of the city, and non-residential buildings, warehouses, and a dozen cars were damaged.
