The IRGC is reportedly launching anti-ship cruise missiles at vessels violating orders in the Strait of Hormuz.

There is a high threat of Iskander-M ballistic missile and Zircon hypersonic cruise missile launches to Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast for the next three hours, starting now.

Russia may launch Iskander-Ms from Klintsy and Pochep (Bryansk Oblast), and Zheleznogorsk (Kursk Oblast. They may launch Zircons from Manturovo (Kursk Oblast) and Millerovo (Rostov Oblast).

Russia is messing with electronic warfare again...

They might be testing for an air defence response.

There could be real launches shortly.

Air raid alerts lifted in Kyiv.

A ship is seen burning from the coast of Kumzar, Oman, following an IRGC attack nearly 2 hours ago.

Ukrainian forces have recaptured the village of Tolstoi, Komar direction, Donetsk Oblast (Volnovakha District).

Pre-war population: ~176.
Total land area: ~0.46 km².

The second battle for Tolstoi lasted approximately 3 months, 15 days.

Russian forces have captured the village of Zybyne, Bilyi Kolodyaz direction, Kharkiv Oblast (Chuhuiv District).

Pre-war population: ~115.
Total land area: ~0.64 km².

The fighting for Zybyne lasted approximately 3 months, 10 days.

Iskander-M threat from Bryansk Oblast.

Iskander-M threat from Kursk Oblast.

As I'm sure you're all aware, there was no major attack tonight. Russia simulated three Iskander-M launches to Kyiv with electronic warfare, likely to test an air defence response.

While the threat remains for the next few days, in my opinion, the next wave of ballistic missiles will be launched in conjunction with the next combined missile and drone attack involving strategic bombers, which is actively being prepared.

Summary of Russia's missile and drone attacks on Ukraine over the last week (August 3-9, 2026):

The following was launched:

~ 49 Iskander-M/S-400 ballistic missile

~ 2 Kn-23 ballistic missiles
~ 1,099+ drones (Geran-2/3/4/5, Italmas, Gerbera, Banderol).

That's a total of ~81 missiles, of which a *minimum* of 2 were shot down (2 Kh-59/69s).

Note: the drone count does not include FPV drones such as Molniya-1.
