On July 19, several videos documenting recent Russian combat operations against Kiev forces were posted to social networks.
Ten of the videos show dozens of attacks with FPV suicide drones, grenade-dropping drones, and interceptor drones that targeted Ukrainian troops, posts and equipment, across the special military operation zone. Notably, one of the strikes targeted a drone boat near the settlement of Kizomys in the Kherson direction.
Three other videos showed strikes with UMPK-equipped guided glide bombs on Ukrainian positions in the settlement of Poltavka in the Donetsk direction, an artillery attack with Krasnopol guided shells on Ukrainian troops in the settlement of Kostyantynivka in the same direction, and a strike with a LMUR guided missile on a post of Kiev forces in the settlement of Senkovo in the Khakiv direction.
In addition, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced in its daily briefing that missile and drone strikes hit “a territorial recruitment centre, infrastructure of the military airfield, aircraft repair enterprise, UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) launch sites as well as temporary deployment areas of the Ukrainian troops” in 132 areas over the last 24 hours.
The ministry added that Russian air defenses shot down six guided aerial bombs and 349 fixed-wing drones during the same period.
According to the ministry, Kiev forces have lost 664 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 70,702 drones, 619 air defense systems, 24,259 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,577 multiple rocket launchers, 27,576 artillery pieces, and 38,402 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.
