An Mi-8 Helicopter from the 16th Separate Army Aviation Brigade crashed while trying to shoot down Russian Geran-2 drones over Poltava Oblast. The crew of 4 was killed.

It's possible that the helicopter was shot down by a Geran equipped with an air-to-air missile.

Russian channels are beginning to acknowledge the Ukrainian counterattacks north of Lyman, which have been ongoing since mid-April.

So far, Ukrainian forces have recaptured approximately 50 kmยฒ, with another 35 kmยฒ still being in the grey-zone.

These counterattacks have been subjected to a massive OPSEC operation by the Ukrainian command, even larger than the one seen in the Pokrovs'ke direction earlier this year.

Regarding the situation in Andriivka-Klevstove, Prosyana Direction:

On July 1, a geolocation appeared showing a Russian position coming under fire in the southern part of Andriivka-Klevstove. This prompted some mappers to reverse the Ukrainian advances in this direction and colour the village in a grey-zone.

However, this infiltration was a one-time event, as proven by yesterday's release of Sentinel-2 satellite imagery from the area.

When applying a false colour filter, it is revealed that Russian Su-34s dropped at least 9 KAB glide-bombs between July 1 and July 6, including on the exact house where Russian forces were previously geolocated. The strikes were carried out on all parts of the village, confirming that Ukrainian forces retain full control over the settlement.

Naftogaz reports that Russian Geran-2 drones attacked multiple gas extraction facilities in Kharkiv Oblast yesterday, resulting in large fires breaking out.

At least one of the facilities was forced to halt operations due to repeated strikes. One worker was injured in the attacks.

Russian Geran-2 drones struck a Nova Poshta warehouse in the city of Kryvyi Rih, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, resulting in a large fire breaking out.

This is the third Nova Poshta warehouse to be hit in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast over the last two days.

Overnight, Ukraine carried out another attack on energy infrastructure in Crimea using mid-range drones.

Strikes were carried out on the 330 kV "Crimea-West" electrical substation (45.290788, 33.652581), and the "Saky" 110 kV electrical substation along with the adjacent railway station (45.144573, 33.609612).

NASA FIRMS data shows that large fires broke out at both impact sites.

Overnight, Russian reconnaissance drones scouted out Nova Poshta terminals in Kropyvnytskyi, Kirovohrad Oblast, and in Poltava City.

They may carry out attacks on these locations using Geran-2/4 drones today or tonight.

Observed losses of SPG & Tanks overlayed with 2025 & 2026.

Armour is used less in this war, but it's by no means irrelevant. It is expensive, produced in limited numbers and critical equipment for potential future combat actions.

As armour has been used less we have seen a natural reduction in Russian armoured losses. The same can't be said for Ukrainian armour losses.

SPG are incredibly important systems that are suppressed by drones, but are not replaced by drones, drones increase their lethality but also their vulnerability.

Drones cannot yet have the area effect that artillery can. Especially in adverse weather.

Ukraine's unmanned systems forces claims that they struck 10 Russian boats/ships overnight.

Obviously this claim is unverified, but it does indicate that the heat signatures on NASA FIRMS that reported on a few hours ago were related to strikes on ships, as I suspected.

Russia is shelling the Slovyansk Thermal Power Plant with MLRS.

The surroundings of this plant and the neighbouring city of Mykolaivka have been under massive aerial bombardment using KABs, MLRS, and artillery, as Russian infiltrators reach the eastern outskirts of Mykolaivka.

An oil tanker was struck by an projectile (likely an Iranian Shahed-131/136 drone) in the Strait of Hormuz, 8 Nautical Miles northeast of Limah, Oman. No casualties are reported.
In my opinion, in around 7-10 hours from now, the U.S. will carry out retaliatory attacks against Iran following the Iranian strikes on an oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz.

The sun sets in southern Iran in around 6.5 hours. The U.S. would most likely carry out any response within a few hours of sunset, which is what we saw for the last few retaliatory attacks.

Ukraine carried out a large-scale attack on a large fleet of Russian ships in the Sea of Azov using mid-range strike drones.

In total, 8 oil tankers, 1 dry cargo ship, and 1 ferry were struck.

As I predicted, the U.S. has launched a wave of retaliatory strikes against coastal areas of Iran in response to Iran's strikes on an oil tanker.

So far, at least 15 airstrikes have been carried out on coastal military infrastructure and on Qeshm Island.
