Ukraine Strikes Russia’s Iran Supply Route, Hits Sanctioned Cargo Ships and Missile Boat

Ivan Khomenko  |  Jul 25, 2026  |  15:26

Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) used long-range drones to strike multiple military and logistical targets across Russia overnight on July 25, including air defense systems in Rostov-on-Don and maritime targets in the Caspian Sea.

According to the SBU, the operation targeted Russian military infrastructure as well as vessels allegedly involved in transporting military cargo from Iran.

The agency said the strikes in Rostov-on-Don damaged a 92N6E “Grave Stone” multifunctional radar and its antenna tower, key components of Russia’s S-400 Triumf air defense system. The SBU also reported destroying a Tor-M2 short-range air defense system, a Pole-21 electronic warfare complex, and two warehouses storing FPV drones.

Separately, according to the SBU, Ukrainian drones struck several targets in the Caspian Sea, including the Filanovsky offshore oil platform, the sanctioned cargo vessel Port Olya 2, the dry cargo ship Begey, and a Russian Project 12418 Molniya missile boat.

The SBU said both Port Olya 2 and Begey had been used to transport military cargo between Iran and Russia and are under sanctions imposed by the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Ukraine.  .  .  .

@Gerashchenko_en

For two days now, Putin is a laughing stock on social media.

(By the way, note that the workshop of the plant has been cleared of people completely.)

Following his visit to the Irkutsk Aviation Plant, Putin issued an ultimatum to increase the flight range of the MS-21, even though the base model still hasn't been put into serial production for over 10 years, and its release has been postponed yet again, this time to 2027.

Due to sanctions and having to replace Western parts with heavier Russian analogs, the MS-21-310 aircraft gained a lot of weight. As a result, its actual flight range dropped from the promised 5,100 km down to 3,830 km.

To meet the range requirements, "Rostec" officials simply proposed shortening the aircraft's fuselage (the MS-21-210 version), reducing the number of passenger seats to 140. This "smaller plane, fewer problems" approach became a separate source of memes about Russian innovations.

When Putin was told the expected range of the shortened version would be 5,000 km, he calculated with dissatisfaction: "It's 5 thousand to fly here (from Moscow to Irkutsk). We need more!".

However, with such a range, the plane would only be able to reach Siberia one way, with no possibility of returning without refueling.

It would be nice if Putin himself flew on this version of the plane. One way.

Russian propagandist Solovyev says Donbas is uninhabitable now and suggests moving its people to Siberia and the Urals - along with Kursk and Belgorod residents.

Brilliant "protection" of Donbas. Russians arrived, started an endless war, laid everything to waste, and now want to forcibly relocate people to harsh regions no Russian actually wants to live in.

Yet another Russian oblivious to the fact that Crimea is Ukraine and that she is an occupier:

💊"The traitors are among us — they're shining flashlights to guide the drones where to fly"

As Russians continue fleeing occupied Crimea, reports are mounting that some local residents are helping Ukrainian forces identify and strike military targets on the peninsula.

Russia's costly dilemma: troops pulled from the front to guard supply routes

Russian forces are increasingly tied down protecting military logistics

Daria Dmytriieva  |  July 26, 2026  |  11:56

Russian forces are increasingly strengthening security along logistics routes following Ukrainian strikes. This requires additional resources, according to Petro Andriushchenko, head of the Center for the Study of Occupation.

"Russian mobile fire teams are a brilliant way for Ukraine's Defense Forces to pull Russian resources away from the front. No exaggeration," Andriushchenko said.

According to him, Russian military personnel are now mostly moving in convoys of up to five vehicles, including trucks. Each convoy is escorted by between one and three mobile fire teams.

Andriushchenko said that this week alone, between 30 and 50 trucks were recorded moving toward Donetsk every day. Slightly fewer vehicles were moving toward Berdiansk. Fuel tankers are also being transported under increased security.

According to his estimates, at least 44 mobile fire teams were deployed simultaneously in the area around occupied Mariupol.

"A huge commitment of resources with questionable effectiveness," Andriushchenko said of the occupiers' tactics.  .  .  .

Putin has increased the Russian army for the third time this year. Russian media reports that Putin has signed a decree to increase the Russian Armed Forces by 27,000 military personnel starting August 1. The stated reason was the "creation of military-construction units," and of course, everyone believed it.

VTB, one of Russia's largest state-owned banks, has started restricting clients' access to their funds. This means Russians can no longer freely withdraw cash or transfer money. The banks attribute this to network congestion, but in reality, Putin needs money for the war, and he is taking it from the Russian people.

The Moscow Times reports that Putin is preparing to wage war for another 3 years. According to the publication, military spending remains the main priority in the draft Russian budget for 2027- 2029. Because of this, the Kremlin may cut funding for social programs and other civilian sectors.

The Tyumen refinery has suspended all operations, according to Reuters. The refinery experienced critical blows at the equipments responsible for the production of diesel and high-octane petrol.

It is unclear how long the repairs will take but given the complexity of the damaged components it is likely that the refinery will be out of action for quite some time.

Ukraine's Defense Forces struck the Prioritet Plant in Borok, Russia's Udmurt Republic, more than 1,300 km from the Ukrainian border.

The facility is part of Russia's State Reserve system (Rosrezerv). It is a classified, strategic, and heavily guarded site used for the long-term storage of state fuel reserves.

Over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian Warriors also struck:

▪️ a logistics warehouse and a fuel warehouse near Ichki in Russian-occupied Crimea;

▪️ a Russian drone warehouse in Luhansk region.

Glory!

Putin preparing to mobilize 500,000 new soldiers as losses pile up and public turns on him

Putin is struggling between waning popularity in the war and massive casualty losses that the Kremlin can't seem to recover from.

Cheyenne R. Ubiera  |  Jul 28, 2026  |  06:00 ET

Vladimir Putin is gearing up to call over half a million new soldiers to join the fight in Ukraine as losses pile up and the public turns against him.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed his Russian counterpart's moves as the Kremlin seeks to balance its high casualty count with public opinion turning against the war. Putin is reportedly attempting to mobilize between 300,000 and 500,00 people for Russia's military at the start of October, said Zelensky.

A new wave of mobilization would be a sign of strain after nearly four and half years of war in Ukraine. This could risk stoking anger in the Russian population, which has been increasingly feeling the impact of the conflict.

When Putin called up 300,000 reservists in the fall of 2022, protests broke out across the country.

Tens of thousands of people fled Russia to avoid serving in the military.  .  .

Russian actor Alexey Yarmushchik published a video criticizing Putin, stating that he no longer wants to remain silent.

According to the 25-year-old Yarmushchik, he does not know a single peer of his who loves and respects Putin — they only fear him.

“I do not want you to be my president. Never in my life. […] I do not want to watch your television. […] I want to listen to my songs. I do not want to use VK. I want to use Instagram. […] I do not believe that Crimea is ours. […] All my acquaintances are leaving. I do not know where these people are who love you as president and respect you. You are not my president.”

Kremlin snuffbox, July 29 2026

Gerasimov called Medvedev an "idiot and a traitor" for his comments on mobilization.

Medvedev: There is no need for mobilization. Medvedev called reports of possible mobilization a false provocation by the enemy before the elections.

Valery Gerasimov was angered by Dmitry Medvedev's statement that there was no need for mobilization.

"These were the words of a true idiot. And a traitor. Mobilization is essential. If it doesn't happen, it's best to end the Special Military Operations immediately. I will draw Vladimir Vladimirovich's attention to Medvedev's harmful actions and statements and ask him to take action," a close associate of the Chief of the General Staff reported to us.

Gerasimov is also dissatisfied with the deputy head of the Security Council's arguments for not needing mobilization. "Dmitry Anatolyevich spoke of 200,000 people who have signed contracts with the Ministry of Defense. He should have asked Belousov how many of them are alive and continuing to fight. He would have learned a lot," said another military official close to Gerasimov.

We reported: the Chief of the General Staff has long been asking Vladimir Putin to begin a major mobilization and expects it to take place by the end of September. However, there is no final decision on this matter yet.

Although mobilization is quite likely, the Ministry of Defense is dissatisfied with the performance of many contract soldiers [ they keep dying ]. The ministry is taking measures to ensure they are more effective and retained in the army for at least 5 years [ This is already put into practice: there are still 5 year old Russian corpses being found on the Ukraine battle field ].

Kremlin snuffbox, July 28 2026

"Everything for the sake of people's peace of mind." Russia is conducting a rehearsal for freezing bank deposits.

The temporary problems VTB clients are experiencing accessing their funds, which are being reported online, are a rehearsal for a freeze on bank deposits in Russia. There are no plans for such a freeze yet, and the rehearsal is being conducted just in case.

"We received instructions from the Kremlin to conduct a rehearsal of freezing bank deposits. Just in case, so the country is prepared for any crisis. Certain measures have been taken at VTB, and I don't rule out similar rehearsals at Sberbank and several other banks. I want to emphasize that no freeze is currently planned. We're simply testing various mechanisms and developing action plans for various scenarios," a source at the Central Bank told us.

He declined to comment on Elvira Nabiullina's prediction that a freeze on deposits is possible if the SVO drags on.

"Everything is being done for people's peace of mind. We don't plan to freeze deposits or other money people keep in banks. But a crisis, you know, is unpredictable. Therefore, we must know how to act in any situation, even the most difficult one. We must ensure that in this situation, the military, teachers, and doctors receive their salaries, and the elderly receive their pensions. That's why we're conducting experiments.

"There's no need to panic; it's better to calm down, think, and evaluate how the government cares for every Russian," our Kremlin source commented.
