This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

Didn’t want to present a target rich environment 🤔
The Commander of Ukrainian Unmanned System Forces, Magyar, posted a photo on his Telegram channel with the commanders of five units from the Drone Line.

Worms, it’s time to get moist.
Every fourth Yoblyk and one in three confirmed enemy targets this summer were taken out by the Cossacks of the Drone Line – part of the newly formed Unmanned Systems Task Force.
Commanders: Zemliak (“Phoenix”), Kyrylo Kyrylovych (“K-2”), KLIMA (“Magyar’s Birds”), Khasan (“Raroh”), Achilles (“Achilles”).
Briefing. Debrief. Planning.
Pigdogs, we saw your little stunt yesterday, trying to poke all of us at once. Nice try. Go suck your bambuchello.

Exactly right, at least as I understand it.
DNI Gabbard referred evidence to DOJ for investigation and potential prosecution if Democrat lies contributing to election results chaos = treason.

Dopey, here is where you get to offer proof.
Tell us what you understand.

This deal is a humiliation for the European people.
Your country is a joke
-0% tariffs on US goods into EU
-15% tariffs on EU goods coming into the US.
-EU purchases $100B+ in US weapons.
-$750 billion in US energy purchases.
Where are all the old and young cripples 🍈 keeps talking about 😂
Russians need to stop smoking😎

Russian forces appear to be using armored vehicles more frequently in some tactical attacks after a decrease in the use of armor since Winter 2024-2025. Publicly available combat footage indicates that Russian forces have not conducted a company-sized or larger mechanized assault in Ukraine since April 2025 and have largely leveraged motorcycles and buggies to attack throughout Summer 2025.[6] Russian forces have recently marginally increased their use of armored vehicles against Ukrainian positions and have conducted a series of smaller platoon-sized mechanized assaults in Donetsk and Zaporizhia Oblast since early July 2025.[7] ISW has recently observed indications that Russia temporarily decreased its consumption of tanks and armored vehicles over the last six months, and that Russia appears to be slowly increasing its ability to refurbish Soviet-era armored vehicles while also replenishing armored vehicle supplies by not committing armored vehicles to highly attritional attacks.[8] Russian forces may be temporarily increasing their use of armor to test for weaknesses in Ukraine's drone-based defense in different frontline areas, or the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) may be able to sufficiently repair damaged frontline armor or resupply frontline Russian units with armor. Russian forces may have also recently increased their risk tolerance to use and lose armored vehicles, possibly as part of testing a new tactic or concept of operations, although it is unclear why Russian forces would recalculate this risk. ISW will continue to study the evolution of combat in Ukraine and provide an updated assessment of Russian armor usage.
The Kremlin reasserted its unchanged commitment to achieving its long-standing war aims in Ukraine that amount to nothing short of Ukraine's full capitulation, undermining Russia's diplomatic posturing. Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated on July 27 that Russia must first fulfill the tasks of its war in Ukraine before renewing bilateral relations with Ukraine.[9] Peskov claimed that Ukraine and the West have rejected Russia's proposals for dialogue. Kremlin officials, including Russian President Vladimir Putin, have continually rejected US, Ukrainian, and European overtures to progress the peace imitative through dialogue and comprehensive ceasefire agreements.[10] Russia unilaterally imposed short-term ceasefires in Spring 2025 that disproportionately benefited Russia during prominent political events that the Kremlin then weaponized to accuse Ukraine of ceasefire violations.[11] Russia has repeatedly articulated that it seeks regime change in Ukraine, a fundamental restructuring of NATO's open-door policy, and the reduction of Ukraine's military such that Ukraine cannot defend itself in the future. [12] ISW continues to assess that Russia aims to continue delaying the negotiation process so as to make additional gains on the battlefield and extract concessions from Ukraine and the West.

According to the KSE Institute's findings, shipments originating near Russia's primary storage fields are projected to fall from a peak of 242,000 tons in 2022 to 119,000 tons in 2025. “Russia is now sending less materiel for refurbishment and repair than we know the repair stations can handle. The better quality and easily-restored equipment would have been the first to be moved,” Pavlo Shkurenko, an analyst at the KSE Institute, told the Financial Times (FT).
Since 2022, Russia has actively sought to refit mothballed equipment for deployment to the front lines. This includes a large number of T-72 and T-80 tanks, originally produced in the 1970s, which have been observed in Ukraine. Even some T-54 tanks, which began production in the late 1940s, have reportedly seen combat. Some military analysts, however, advise against interpreting the reduced front-line deliveries of armored vehicles as a definitive sign that Russian forces are “losing combat effectiveness,” according to FT. These experts point out that Russia's battlefield tactics have adapted to employ fewer such vehicles, and additionally, they observe that “the Russian armed forces are also spending heavily to build up new stocks.”
The KSE analysis also points to Russia's increasing reliance on its Asian allies as its domestic resources have dwindled. Russia's defense industry now depends on supplies from China, while its military receives the majority of its ammunition from North Korea. By weight, approximately 52 percent of shipments labeled as “explosive materials” to Russia's arsenals in 2024 originated from Nakhodka, a port region on the Sea of Japan used by North Korea. Shipments from this area surged from zero prior to the war to 250,000 tonnes by 2024. The KSE’s analysis aligns with the assessment of Kyrylo Budanov, Ukraine's military intelligence chief, who said this month that North Korea supplied 40% of Russia's ammunition. Additionally, Russia plans to spend around $1.1 trillion on rearmament over the next 11 years in preparation for a potential large-scale war, according to Budanov.
A South Korean intelligence assessment similarly suggested North Korea had sent 28,000 containers to Russia, and Pyongyang is also known to have provided ballistic missiles, howitzers, and even troops to Russia. The KSE analysis additionally identified around 13,000 tons of explosive material likely sourced from Iran, based on their entry points into the logistics chain near the Caspian Sea.
Russian airline Aeroflot has been hit by a devastating cyberattack that forced the cancellation of at least 49 flights and severely disrupted its internal operations. The hacker group Silent Crow has claimed responsibility for the breach, describing it as a year-long infiltration of the airline's corporate infrastructure.
The attackers claim to have destroyed around 7,000 servers, both physical and virtual, and exfiltrated an estimated 20 terabytes of data. This includes 12 TB of databases, 8 TB of files from internal Windows shares, and 2 TB of corporate email archives.
According to a statement from Silent Crow, the breach gave them access to nearly every key component of Aeroflot's digital infrastructure:
Flight history databases
Corporate systems such as CREW, Sabre, SharePoint, Exchange, КАСУД, Sirax, CRM, ERP, 1C, DLP, and more
Employee computers, including those of top executives
Surveillance and internal monitoring systems
Audio recordings of intercepted phone calls and communications
Data from 122 hypervisors, 43 ZVIRT virtualization installations, approximately 100 iLO server interfaces, and 4 Proxmox clusters
The hackers claim that all these systems are now either destroyed or inaccessible, warning that recovery could take months and cost tens of millions of dollars. They described the damage as “strategic in scale.”
Silent Crow said the attack was not just sabotage but also a deliberate message to Russian intelligence agencies and cybersecurity entities such as the FSB, RT-Solar, and the National Coordination Center for Computer Incidents (NCCCI).

More medium- and long-range missiles, including American ATACMS and German Taurus systems, would allow Kyiv, provided restrictions on their use were lifted, to slow down Russian weapons production by targeting infrastructure that manufactures missiles and drones
