Artillery shelling of Ukraine’s border regions also persists, with the settlements of Bachivsk, Pustohorod, Korenok, Yastrubshchyna, Volfyne, Hirky, and Studenok in Sumy Oblast coming under fire.
The heaviest fighting has been reported on the Pokrovsk direction, where Russian troops attempted 22 assaults on Ukrainian positions. Ukrainian defenders also repelled attacks on the Kostiantynivka, Sloviansk, Lyman, Kupiansk, Kramatorsk, Huliaipole, and Orikhiv directions, while several engagements remain ongoing.

Long-range missile strikes and attack drones were responsible for 45% of all civilian casualties, killing 126 people and injuring 907 others. Most of these attacks occurred far from the front line, including in Kyiv and Dnipro.
During the night, Ukrainian drones reportedly struck seven vessels in the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov, including three tankers and four cargo ships. Additional strikes targeted seven energy facilities and electrical substations in occupied Crimea, as well as six Russian air defense assets on russian territory.
Russia has also launched more ballistic missiles against Ukraine since the beginning of July than it is estimated to produce in a single month, indicating that Moscow is likely relying on accumulated stockpiles. According to the Ukrainian Air Force, russian forces have fired 107 ballistic missiles and 20 Zircon hypersonic missiles since the start of the month. The defense publication Militarnyi, citing unnamed Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR) sources, reports that Russia manufactures approximately 60 Iskander-M ballistic missiles and 40 missiles for S-400 systems each month.
