On July 30, several videos documenting recent Russian combat operations against Kiev forces were posted to social networks.
14 of the videos show dozens of attacks with FPV suicide drones, grenade-dropping drones, loitering munitions and interceptor drones that targeted Ukrainian troops, posts and equipment across the special military operation zone in the last few days.
Four other videos show recent airstrikes that hit positions near the settlements of Iskra, Kostyantynivka, and Rodinskoye in the Donetsk direction as well as close to the settlement of Novopavlivka in the Zaporizhzhia direction and the settlements of Kup’yans’k and Volchansk in the Kharkiv direction.
The airstrikes were all carried out using UMPK-equipped FAB-500 and FAB-1500 guided glide bombs, as well as Kh-38 guided missiles.
In addition, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced in its daily briefing that missile and drone attacks hit “a transport infrastructure used for the AFU (Armed Forces of Ukraine), a depot of robotics systems, temporary deployment areas of Ukrainian forces and foreign mercenaries” in 156 areas in the last 24 hours.
The ministry added that Russian air defenses shot down two guided aerial bombs and 133 fixed-wing drones during the same period.
According to the ministry, Kiev forces have lost 664 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 73,522 drones, 624 air defense systems, 24,384 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,584 multiple rocket launchers, 27,956 artillery pieces, and 38,956 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.
