Frontline situation
Ukraine's Defense Forces struck several Russian military and logistics targets overnight on July 26, including a Chornomornaftogaz facility in occupied Crimea, a drone relay station, a logistics bridge in the Donetsk region, a drone storage site, and a troop concentration area in the Luhansk region. Ukraine also confirmed a successful strike on the Tyumen oil refinery.
Meanwhile, Russian forces are preparing for a new offensive toward Dobropillia while diverting more resources to protect military logistics from Ukrainian strikes. Despite increased security and repeated assaults, Russian troops have so far failed to achieve their objectives.
