As of the morning of July 10, the Defense Forces of Ukraine eliminated 1,100 Russian invaders in one day.

Points of attention

  • The Armed Forces of Ukraine successfully eliminated 1,100 Russian invaders and destroyed 2 tanks and 36 artillery systems in one day.
  • The losses of the Russian army since the beginning of the full-scale war amounted to 554,510 soldiers, and Ukraine continues to defend the territory successfully.
  • The American agency does not see any signs of the Russian army's preparation for a breakthrough on the battlefield due to a lack of manpower.
  • Ukrainian soldiers are concentrating on building defense lines and defeating Russian forces, which complicates the occupiers' plans to take control of the territory.
  • According to NYT insiders, the chances of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to liberate Ukrainian lands are currently assessed positively because their actions lead to significant losses for the Russian army.

  • vehicles and fuel tanks — 20,269 (+57) units;

  • special equipment — 2531 (+15) units.

US sees no signs of the Russian army preparing for a breakthrough

The American agency concluded that the Russian aggressor country, thanks to the supply of electronic components from China, drones from Iran, missiles and artillery from North Korea, has enough weapons, however, as of today, it is experiencing a serious lack of manpower.

Even though, during the last months, the advantage at the front was on the side of the Russian occupiers, they still did not manage to capture a significant part of the territory of Ukraine.

What's more, the Russian army lost a lot of its soldiers without getting anything in return.

According to NYT insiders, they are currently sceptical about the prospects of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to liberate the territory because currently, Ukrainian soldiers are focused on building defence lines and inflicting maximum damage on Russian forces.

End of Russia's war against Ukraine. Rubio demands Putin make a decision

Rubio
Source:  Public

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that the administration of President Donald Trump expects Russia to be ready to end the war, which should be known "in weeks, not months." Now the Russian side is violating the ceasefire.

Points of attention

  • US Secretary of State Marco Rubio calls on Russia to end the war against Ukraine in the coming weeks, urging prompt action.
  • Discussions between Ukraine and Russia involve measures to prohibit strikes on energy facilities, yet ceasefire violations persist.
  • The United States, Ukraine, and Russia are engaged in talks aiming to implement agreements on non-attack clauses for energy facilities.

Rubio demands that Russia make a decision to end the war against Ukraine

He told reporters after a meeting of NATO ministers.

If there is a wait-and-see tactic, we will not be interested in it. And President Trump will not fall into the trap of endless negotiations.

According to Rubio, Russia should make a decision to end the war “soon, not in six months, but in weeks.” If it does not, the United States should reevaluate its tactics.

He also added that the Russians did not agree to a full ceasefire, instead putting forward the idea of a partial truce, but they have already been violated several times.

It's about action. […] If you are not interested in peace, then you delay the process, you come up with some excuses... We will not delay this.

The United States, Ukraine, and Russia have published the results of technical-level talks held in Saudi Arabia on March 23-25. All parties agreed to develop measures to implement the agreement on the prohibition of attacks on energy facilities in Russia and Ukraine.

The Ukrainian side has handed over to US representatives a list of energy facilities that Russia should not strike. Meanwhile, the Kremlin has published a list of Russian and Ukrainian facilities that, by agreement of the parties, cannot be shelled during the 30-day ceasefire.

The very next day, March 26, the Russian Ministry of Defense accused Ukraine of violating the agreements on a mutual ceasefire at energy facilities. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated that this was untrue. And during a massive attack on the night of March 28, Russian troops damaged Naftogaz's gas production facilities.
