Zelensky: It is important that airlines using Russian airspace continue to pay attention to the real situation and the real danger. Today, there are new signals from airlines on this, and we confirm that because of Russia’s war, Russian skies have become a space for drones, not civilian aircraft. Drones are a concrete reality, unlike the words of Russian officials who are trying to reassure airlines.

Ukraine will always be grateful to all those who serve our country with dedication every day and protect the lives of our people from Russian terror. Today, we express our special gratitude to all the defenders of our skies—to the Ukrainian warriors of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for every downed Russian target, for their efficiency and precision. From the very first days of this war, Ukraine has been countering Russian airstrikes. Our warriors have already destroyed thousands of Russian missiles and drones, and hundreds of Russian combat planes and helicopters. These are significant results. And we are doing everything to ensure that the Ukrainian Air Force can achieve even more. They will definitely succeed! Glory to our Air Force! Glory to Ukraine!

These are Ukrainian farmers from Kherson region. They're harvesting watermelons, which is vital for their livelihood. They brought the child with them because their city is constantly under Russian drone attacks, and it's unclear where it's safer to stay. And it's not just watermelons being harvested under these conditions — this is constant danger. Russian drones are hunting peaceful Ukrainians to kill them. This is the reality of life in frontline areas that haven't yet been reduced to rubble by KABs. Russia is constantly ramping up drone production. If this isn't stopped, soon skies over every Ukrainian city will be filled with swarms of Russian drones, killing everything alive. And then those drones won't stop — they will head beyond Ukraine's borders. 📹: Valentyn Tkachuk / Facebook

Ukrainian attack on Chonhar last night. CODE 9.2 and Falanga multi-domain operations center are blocking Russian attempts to restore crossings to and from Russian-occupied Crimea. The Chonhar bridge is closed after previous Ukrainian attacks. Russian troops are using pontoon bridges but their capacity is low, so trucks have to accumulate in lines. This makes them great targets for Ukrainian Defenders! There will be more, CODE 9.2 promises. We can't wait.

There is a LOT of work to be done cleaning up the deep-state, and draining the swamp. President Trump is RIGHT ON TRACK! John Bolton was just the first step. EVERYONE who made intelligence decisions based on their political beliefs and not in the best interest of this country will be held accountable. DNI Gabbard, AG Bondi, and Director Patel are doing a great job! WE WILL FIND THEM ALL!

Every year, on the first Sunday of August, we congratulate our warriors of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on their professional holiday and thank them for their protection. We thank our pilots, air defense personnel, mobile fire groups, anti-aircraft gunners, radio engineering units, engineers, and everyone who does their part to make Ukraine stronger. Thousands of combat sorties, thousands of targets intercepted, and thanks to that, thousands of lives protected. Over the years of the war, our Air Force has grown significantly stronger. We have received modern combat aircraft and effective air defense systems. There are still not enough of these systems to protect our entire sky from Russian missiles, but today Ukraine's air shield is already one of the strongest in Europe. And that is thanks to the professionalism and experience of our warriors, who have proven it time and again by intercepting even the most challenging targets despite shortages of one type of equipment or another. I thank every man and woman who defends our skies and does everything every day to keep Ukrainians safe. And we will always honor the memory of all those who gave their lives defending Ukraine. Eternal memory to the heroes. Glory to our warriors! Glory to Ukraine!

We are doing everything we can to reduce the time until new and powerful aircraft with Ukrainian pilots emerge in the Ukrainian skies. It is clear that this global step will allow us to expand our defense capabilities. Because it is only with powerful aircraft that an air defense system can be complete. On the other hand, the first 🇺🇦 F-16 will be one of the strongest signals from the world that Russia will only lose because of its own aggression, becoming weaker and more isolated. This will be a signal that Russian terror has lost, and our world, which is based on respect for independent nations and the right of peoples to choose their own path, has endured.

🤡 Russian lawmaker complains that war has become “somewhat unpleasant” According to him, Russian troops used to be able to drive right up to the front line and even shout back and forth with Ukrainian positions. Now, however, the skies are filled with drones, and in many areas it is impossible to get anywhere near the front, even from dozens of kilometers away. “Today there are hundreds of them, tomorrow there will be thousands, and the day after that hundreds of thousands. They will be able to fly autonomously using artificial intelligence, anywhere,” the lawmaker complained. He also admitted that Russian advances have slowed because of this. Though we would say they’ve simply entered negative growth.

Deputy Prime Minister of Canada Chrystia Freeland today commenting about the documentary. “There is a film that is due to be screened at Tiff today in Toronto about Russian soldiers at War. Ukrainian diplomats and the Ukrainian Canadian Community have expressed really grave concerns about that film and I do want to say I share those concerns. We have to be really clear that this is a war where there is no moral equivalency this is a war of Russian aggression this is a war where Russia is breaking international law and committing war crimes. There is very clearly good and evil in this war. Ukrainians are fighting for their sovereignty and for democracy around the world and we as a country have to be very, very clear that there can be no moral equivalency in our understanding of this conflict. It's not right for Canadian public money to be supporting the screening and production of a film like this.”

American nurse speaks out about our healthcare system “Let me be the first nurse to tell you that this medical system is not built to make you better. It is not broken. It is literally designed as a business model to keep people sick. And I know this is going to make a lot of nurses and doctors upset. It's the reality. It's what's happening in front of our faces. This is a business model to keep people coming back. It's the fact that we can't be honest with our patients is the reason that this business model is working.” “Their business model is literally keep people sick, keep them on a medication, keep telling them surgery is the answer. I know so many people who are on lifetime medications who've had multiple surgeries and who are not living their life.”

It’s with a heavy heart and a heavy day, we head back to DC. We have a big week ahead and are using every tool we have this week to force votes on war powers, healthcare, and to protect the American people. Meanwhile…the President is at the Kennedy Center with Republicans who are using their control of Congress to…pass a bill this week to redefine shower heads. Yes, you read that right. This is the timeline we’re living in.

⚡️ Ukraine’s new weapon against Shahed drones In the Kharkiv region, Ukrainian forces are already using the RapidRanger in combat — a light, mobile short-range air defense system. Reuters filmed a crew from the 1030th Anti-Aircraft Missile and Artillery Regiment “Aquila” of the 3rd Army Corps operating the system. According to crew commander Bohdan Hontash, the system entered service relatively recently, has already completed field and combat testing, and has scored a number of successful interceptions over the past few months. The new air defense system is especially relevant now: according to Ukrainian military data reviewed by Reuters, Russia increased its use of jet-powered Shahed drones roughly sixfold over the three summer months. These drones can reach speeds of more than 400 km/h, making them significantly harder to intercept.
