On July 31, several videos documenting recent Russian combat operations against Kiev forces were posted to social networks.
11 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 several directions in the special military operation zone in the last few days.
Another video show a strike, likely carried out with an Iskander-M tactical ballistic missile, on a Ukrainian drone production and storage site near the settlement of Vasyshcheve in the direction of Khakiv.
Two more videos show recent airstrikes with UMPK-equipped guided glide bombs that hit Ukrainian positions near the settlement of Lesnaya Stenka in Khakiv and a crossing used by Kiev forces on the Volchya River near the settlement of Velikomikhaylovka in the Dnipropetrovsk direction.
In addition, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced in its daily briefing that missile and drone strikes hit “missile artillery weaponry depots and temporary deployment points of Ukrainian formations and foreign mercenaries” in 147 areas over the last 24 hours.
The ministry added that Russian air defenses shot down 169 fixed-wing drones over the special military operation zone during the same period.
According to the ministry, Kiev forces have lost 664 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 73,691 drones, 624 air defense systems, 24,395 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,584 multiple rocket launchers, 28,031 artillery pieces, and 38,946 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.
