There is a threat of a repeated Russian ballistic missile attack on Kyiv for the next several days.

During last night's attack, only 8 out of ~30 accumulated Iskander-M ballistic missiles were used. Additionally, they did not use any Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles. This means that Russia still has enough missiles concentrated in Bryansk, Kursk, and Rostov Oblasts to carry out another large-scale attack.

More information will become available in the coming days. It's possible that Russia intends to use these missiles in conjunction with the next attack involving Tu-95MS and Tu-160M strategic bombers, which are actively being equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles at Engels-2 and Ukrainka Airbases.

The Russian Ministry of Defence claims that this facility struck by ~8 Iskander-M ballistic missiles in Kyiv was used for manufacturing components and warheads for the FP-5 "Flamingo" cruise missile.

It also reportedly stored components for the production of solid-rocket boosters.

The Russian Ministry of Defence claims to have struck two more cargo ships with Geran-4 jet-drones in the western Black Sea, which they allege were transporting equipment for the Ukrainian military.

Another ship was just struck by a Russian Geran-4 jet-drone off the coast of Odesa a few minutes ago.

An explosion could be heard from the coast.

The Ukrainian Air Force released their claimed figures for how many glide-bomb strikes they carried out on Russian positions during July.

According to them, approximately 300 sorties were carried out by the Ukrainian Air Force - an average of 9.7 per day. Because this is an official report, this is the maximum number possible. The true number will likely actually be lower as they have an incentive to lie.

In comparison, Russia launched over 8,300 glide-bombs in July, with an average of ~268 per day (as per the Ukrainian General Staff). The true number is likely slightly higher as this is also an official claim with an incentive to lie.

If we were to make a rough estimate of 2 glide-bombs per Ukrainian sortie, then it would give us an airstrike ratio of around 14:1 in favour of Russia. This has a large margin of error due to Ukraine's incentive to lie, and because Ukraine's numbers include sorties while Russia's include individual munitions.

The Ukrainian Air Force confirmed that none of the Russian Iskander-M ballistic missiles were shot down last night, due to Ukraine having completely run out of Patriot interceptor missiles.

However, they purposefully underreported the total number of missiles launched, claiming there were only 6 (there were actually 8), in order to create the illusion of less impacts.

They also falsely claimed that "several missiles did not reach their targets", despite there being visual confirmation of 8 impacts at the "Asphalt concrete plant" in southern Kyiv.

A Ukrainian military channel reports that some of the soldiers from the 425th Assault Regiment "Skala" and the 225th Assault Regiment will be transferred to the 1st Corps of the Ukrainian National Guard "Azov", as a part of the ongoing reduction in the size of these massively oversized units.

At least three Russian Geran-3/4 jet-drones are approaching the city of Vasylkiv, Kyiv Oblast.

A Su-30 departed from Yeysk Airbase, Krasnodar Krai.

It may launch a Kh-31P anti-radar missile at Odesa Oblast.

Russian Banderol jet-drones struck the Chornomorsk Port.

Russian forces have re-established control over the village of Novomykolaivka, Pokrovs'ke direction, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast (Synelnykove District).

Pre-war population: ~155
Total land area: ~0.99 km²

The third battle for Novomykolaivka lasted approximately 3 months, 10 days.

Russian Geran-4 jet-drone strike on a cargo ship in the western Black Sea.

Russian Geran-4 jet-drones struck warehouses in the towns/cities of Savyntsi, Zidky, Barvinkove, and Volokhiv Yar, Kharkiv Oblast.

These warehouses were reportedly used by Ukraine to store drones, drone components, and radio-electronic equipment.

Ukrainian FPV drones struck a car used for launching drones and a Gerbera drone at Donetsk International Airport, around 45 km from the frontline.

Edit: Likely MLRS

Tu-22m3 strategic bombers are airborne over the Black Sea.

They may launch Kh-22/32 cruise missiles towards Odesa Oblast.
