Elon Musk's X social network blocks Bellingcat's investigation into the Russian Kh-101 missile attack on Okhmatdyt in Kyiv - some users receive a warning that the link may be dangerous.
The founder of Bellingcat, Elliot Higgins, asked who the material was "dangerous for, Putin?"
The day before, Bellingcat analysts confirmed that the attack had hit Okhmatdyt in Kyiv with a Russian missile, using video footage.

The USA handed over Metal Shark speedboats to the Sea Guard of the State Border Service of Ukraine
They are equipped with modern systems of navigation, control, automatic fire extinguishing and video surveillance cameras, which makes them maneuverable, fast and ergonomic.
Watercraft are already used on sea and river sections of the border for protection and defense, and are also involved in ensuring the security component of the maritime corridor in the Black Sea.
Rest in Peace Dmytro. Your efforts to make the world a better place will not be forgotten.
Dmytro Pakholiuk died as a result of a russian missile attack on Kryvyi Rih on July 8, 2024.
Dmytro was 36. He used to work in the patrol police, but a few years ago he switched to work at Metinvest. He held the position of engineer.
Even before the full-scale invasion, he was involved in volunteer activities and was also a blood donor. He devoted all his free time to his family.
"He was a real role model..." - say colleagues from the patrol police.
Dmytro Pakholyuk is survived by his wife, daughter and other relatives.
🇯🇵 The Japanese government handed over 2 more Nikken mechanized demining machines to the units of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine
In turn Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Ihor Klymenko thanked his Japanese colleagues for their support:
💬 "We want to thank the Government and Embassy of Japan, as well as the international cooperation agency JICA, for the help and joint resilience in such difficult times for the country."
Also, Japanese Ambassador to Ukraine Matsuda Kuninori expressed his admiration for pyrotechnicians and sappers who tirelessly clear Ukrainian land of explosive objects.
Today, the transferred machines will be sent to Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk regions to perform the necessary tasks.
Destruction of a Russian T-90M 155-mm "smart" Bonus projectile in the Zaporizhzhia region.
It can be seen how the projectile, flying over the tank, drops two submunitions, which cause cumulative damage to the vehicle.

Good morning Resisters everywhere. 61⁰ this morning because it only got to 75⁰ yesterday. Of course it rained for 11 hours yesterday.

Little Ukraine vs massive ruzzia! 😹
Good morning. Be bold like Ukrainians! 💛
🌳 A square named after the Hero of Ukraine, scout Oleg Babii, will appear in the Lviv district of Sykhiv.
📃 The corresponding decision was adopted by the deputies of the Lviv City Council on July 4, 2024.
👤 Oleg Babii is an officer of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, who made 9 successful sorties into the deep rear of the enemy. Planned and coordinated 12 successful special operations involving representatives of the resistance movement in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. More than 70 strategic military facilities of the aggressor state were discovered on the lands captured by the Muscovites.
❗️ In August 2023, Oleg Babi's group covered 600 kilometers on foot to neutralize three Tu-22M3 strategic bombers on enemy territory: one was completely destroyed, two were damaged and disabled.
⚔️ On the way back, the group of scouts encountered the enemy. 33-year-old lieutenant colonel Oleg Babii covered the departure of his subordinates and died in a battle with russian invaders.
🫡 Awarded the Gold Star of the Hero of Ukraine and the military rank of colonel (posthumously).
▫️ The graduate of the National Academy of Land Forces named after Hetman Sagaidachny in Lvivt is survived by his wife and two children.
🙏 We express our gratitude to the community and representatives of the local self-government of Lviv for honoring the memory of Oleg Babii.
🇺🇦 Glory to Ukraine!
- GUR
