Russo-Ukrainian war, day 1631: Ukraine destroyed or disabled nearly 14,000 Russian vehicles in July alone
Meanwhile, Russia is reportedly building 3,000 jet-powered drones a month to overwhelm Ukraine's air defenses, even as it ends production of the older Geran-3 model.
In July, Ukraine's armed forces destroyed or disabled a staggering 13,998 Russian vehicles, marking Russia's deadliest month for personnel and vehicle losses. Simultaneously, Ukrainian drone strikes crippled Russia's oil trade, forcing the nation into importing fuel and diverting its crude through Arctic routes. Ukraine's drone strike also took a significant toll on Russia's liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) production, shutting down a major plant and rendering 40% of the country's LPG production offline.
Additionally, Ukraine's military actions targeted four Russian warships in Novorossiysk, where the Black Sea Fleet sought refuge after leaving Sevastopol. In a display of technological prowess, Ukraine repurposed a FPV drone to intercept Russian recon drones, leading to the discovery of an Nvidia Jetson micro-computer in Russia's new S-71 Monokhrom cruise missile.
