🇷🇺🇺🇦 A Russian “Shahed-136/Geran-2” drone conducting remote mining by dropping Soviet-designed anti-vehicle (AV) PTM-3 mines on the logistics routes of Ukrainian forces in the east.
Russians also equipped these mines on the ZALA “Lancet” drones. These mines can detonate without a physical contact as they use magnetic fields to sense nearby objects.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) released a statement claiming that Ukraine is allegedly preparing a “staged provocation” to derail the Russia–US talks set for August 15.
According to MoD, on Aug 11, a group of foreign journalists was reportedly brought by Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) to Chuhuiv, Kharkiv region, under the cover of filming stories about life near the front. The plan, according to MoD, is for Ukraine’s forces to carry out a strike — using drones and missiles — on a densely populated neighborhood or a hospital just before the summit.
Heavy civilian casualties would be expected, MoD says, and the foreign journalists would “capture” it immediately. Then, blame would be placed on Russia’s military, “shaping a negative media narrative and obstructing negotiations.”
