👀 The Russians captured Ukrainian soldiers in the Kursk region, but realized that they were surrounded, laid down their weapons and, together with the prisoners, went to the Ukrainian soldiers.

The German IRIS-T air defense systems have proven to be 100% effective in Ukraine, according to military historian Andriy Haruk, who wrote about this in a blog for "Militarnyy."
Since their deployment in October 2022, the IRIS-T systems have been actively defending Ukraine's airspace. Haruk highlighted the exceptional performance of these systems, citing the manufacturer, Diehl Defense. From October 2022 to June 2024, the IRIS-T systems successfully intercepted more than 240 targets, achieving a remarkable 100% hit rate—every missile fired reached its intended target.
💔 The youngest defender of the 3rd OShBr, a 19-year-old soldier from Lviv Oblast, Yuliya Boyanovska, died at the front.
The senior shooter-operator lay down for Ukraine near the village of Grekivka in the Luhansk region.
🕯 Eternal memory of the defender!
Russia sends 447 goats to North Korea after Kim Jong Un sucks up to Putin - Politico
Goats for guns? Kadyrov must be so jealous!
After a summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in June at which the international pariahs discussed mutual cooperation, Moscow has delivered a gift to Pyongyang. Russia sent, drumroll, 447 goats to the North Korean city of Rason, the Russian agriculture safety watchdog Rosselkhoznadzor said in a press release.
The goats, which were exported from Russia’s Leningrad region, represent a first batch of farm animals that Russia intends to deliver to North Korea.
The goats will provide dairy products to local children to relieve North Korea’s food shortages, mainly caused by government-related policies, with the situation getting worse during the Covid-19 pandemic.
According to Human Rights Watch, 10.7 million out of 25.9 million people in North Korea are malnourished, and 18 percent of children have impaired growth and development due to chronic malnutrition.
As a result of an unsuccessful assault in Kharkiv region, Russian occupation forces lost 5 armored vehicles
