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 in Donetsk and several other directions within the special military operation zone. One of the attacks destroyed an American-made AN/TPQ-50 counter-battery radar.
Two other videos show recent airstrikes that targeted Ukrainian positions near the settlement of Zeleny Gai in Donetsk and the settlement of Kondratovka in the Sumy direction. The airstrikes were carried out using UMPK-equipped guided glide bombs.
In addition, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced in its daily briefing that missile and drone strikes hit “one fuel infrastructure object used by the AFU (Armed Forces of Ukraine), one UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) workshop as well as temporary deployment areas of Ukrainian formations and foreign mercenaries” in 148 areas within the special military operation zone in the past 24 hours.
The ministry added that Russian air defenses shot down two guided aerial bombs, four American-made HIMARS and Czech-made Vampire projectiles, and 364 fixed-wing drones during the same period.
According to the ministry, Kiev forces have lost 664 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 71,066 drones, 619 air defense systems, 24,277 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,577 multiple rocket launchers, 27,593 artillery pieces, and 38,459 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.
