Ukraine just changed naval warfare again. New drone carriers are launching unjammable fiber-optic FPVs — drones that fly without radio signals and can’t be jammed by Russian EW.

Ukraine appears to be attacking the town of Staryi Oskil in the Bilhorod region. I was wondering why we didn't do it before. This is a key iron ore processing and extraction site in russia, accounting for 50% of russian iron production, or roughly 40 million tons.

Ukraine has successfully cut off all rail and shipping of fuel to Russian occupied Crimea and Kherson.

Russians themselves proudly published a video of a drone attack on a UN humanitarian convoy in the Kherson region

Lavrov stated that the supply of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine would cause colossal damage to relations between Russia and the US.

"Russia would have long lost this war. With the help of its partners, Ukraine would have regained all the occupied territories if it weren’t for the Kremlin’s support from Moscow’s allies."

The name and face of every Russian officer in the chain of command responsible for any war crimes should be published so that they must look over their shoulder and under their car for the rest of their lives. GUR will hunt them down.

Despite a lot of western doom.and gloom, the Russian summer offensive has mostly been a failure.

Russia threw 100 000 men at Pokrovsk this summer, and they're still fighting over it. (Despite CNN reporting on imminent defensive collapse in July.) They've been trying to capture it since mid-July 2024. We're talking about a city with a pre-war population of 60k and an an area of 30 sq km (or 11 sq miles). And Ukraine has been counter-attacking recently, taking back already captured positions.

Whether Pokrovsk falls or not is not really the point, but it's really more an indicator that it's really hard to move the frontline when your bigger vehicles keep getting destroyed and you're stuck advancing with motorbikes and infantry.

Yes Russia has gained ground again, but not really anything strategically significant, ans nothing that's in scale with the massive amounts of troops used.

Reporter: Did you discuss Putin's attacks on civilian areas in Ukraine?
Trump: I did. But most of the people dying are soldiers.

#Ukraine: Today's latest news THREAD on #UkraineWar Part 2: 7. RU's #Pokrovsk "offensive" has finally driven RU's causality rate to unsustainable levels. With recruitment at 32k a month, they are now losing 35k+ a month dead/injured.

Details of Zelenskyy-Trump meeting “Zelenskyy refused to give up lands that Russia had failed to occupy. Trump ultimately ended the meeting with the words, "Okay, let's try to finish this along the current lines.”
