On July 27, several videos documenting recent Russian combat operations against Kiev forces were posted to social networks.
Three of the videos showed strikes with FPV suicide drones that hit vehicles and equipment of Kiev forces across the special military operation zone over the last few days.
Three other videos show recent attacks with Lancet loitering munitions that hit a Soviet-made T-72 main battle tank in the Serebryansky forest in the Donetsk direction, a British-made AS-90 self-propelled howitzer close to the settlement of Konstantinovsky, also in Donetsk, and an unidentified armored vehicle near the settlement of Alexandriia in the Dnipropetrovsk direction.
Two more videos show artillery strikes that targeted a mortar site and a drone post of Kiev forces near the settlement of Novodmitrovka and Serebryanka in Donetsk.
Recent airstrikes with UMPK-equipped guided glide bombs on Ukrainian positions and fortifications near the settlement of Krasnoarmeysk in Donetsk and close to the settlement of Mogritsa in the Sumy direction can be seen in two additional videos.
In addition, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced in its daily briefing that missile and drone strikes hit “a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) production workshops, control posts for long-range unmanned aerial vehicles as well as temporary deployment areas of AFU (Armed Forces of Ukraine) units and foreign mercenaries” in 146 areas over the past 24 hours.
The ministry added that Russian air defenses shot down two guided aerial bombs, three Czech-made Vampire projectiles, and 291 fixed-wing drones.
According to the ministry, Kiev forces have lost 664 aircraft, 283 helicopters, 72,950 drones, 624 air defense systems, 24,348 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 1,581 multiple rocket launchers, 27,874 artillery pieces, and 38,764 support vehicles since the start of the special military operation.
