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.

The sugar high of massive Defense spending has crested, and Russian industrial output is declining.
Kyiv Independent (1 Aug):
“Despite heavy militarization and a surge in state defense orders since the start of the war against Ukraine, Russia’s industrial production growth has begun to slow.
The Russian Central Bank has attempted to stimulate the economy by cutting the key interest rate to 18%, but borrowing costs remain at record highs.
Russia’s manufacturing sector continued to contract in July, with the S&P Global Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) dropping to 47.0 from 47.5 in June, its second straight monthly decline. A PMI reading below 50 indicates a downturn in activity, Reuters reported.
According to surveyed firms, weakening demand, rising financial pressure on clients, and increasing payment delays contributed to the slump. As a result, both production volumes and new orders fell over the month.
Companies report a sharp deterioration in conditions, citing falling demand, rising financial difficulties among customers, and increasing payment delays. Consequently, both production volumes and new orders have declined.
New orders have seen a particularly steep drop — the largest since March 2022. While export orders have edged up slightly, overall business confidence has sunk to its lowest point in nearly three years.
“Although companies hope that investment in new products and facilities will support output growth, economic uncertainty and reduced purchasing power at customers dampened positive sentiment,” S&P Global said.
Earlier, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said Russia’s economy is set to sharply decelerate, returning to stagnation after two years of war-driven expansion.
The IMF cut its 2025 projections for Russia to 0.9%, more than four times lower than the 4.3% expansion recorded in 2024. Growth is projected to remain sluggish at 1% in 2026.”
“We call on the President to sign this law as soon as possible to fully restore the independence of Ukraine’s anti-corruption system”
Done. Same day. It’s the law.
HIV spreading like wildfire in the Russian Military, and Russian society.
Kyiv Independent (1 Aug):
“Cases of HIV among Russian soldiers have soared 2,000% since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, a new report reveals...
...According to the report from Carnegie Politika, cases detected in the Russian armed forces increased by 13 times by the end of 2022, and by 20 times by the end of 2024.
“The demographic and economic losses Russia will suffer as a result of this outbreak will have repercussions for decades and may ultimately even exceed the damage it has sustained from its invasion of Ukraine,” the report said.
It attributes the rise to several factors including blood transfusions for wounded soldiers, reusing syringes in field hospitals, and soldiers engaging in unprotected sex and drug use.
The report also highlights the wider HIV situation in Russia which since 2022 has been among the top five countries worldwide for new HIV cases, behind South Africa, Mozambique, Nigeria, and India.”
All Putin’s regime can do at this point is mass murder Ukrainian women and children and hope that depopulates the country. Russia genocidally erasing another Ukrainian village or two in eastern Ukraine doesn’t really change anything in the big picture.
“All Putin’s regime can do at this point is mass murder Ukrainian women and children”
This too shall pass.
This war continues to evolve, and we are entering a new phase, where Europeans (Germany) seems committed to significantly increasing arms supply to Ukraine, as well as overall production, and really big new sanctions are coming to bear on Russian oil revenue.
Full Stop.
OilPrice.com (1 Aug):
“India’s top state refiners have not purchased any crude from Russia this week after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened secondary tariffs on the buyers of Russian oil and as discounts of Moscow’s crudes narrowed to alternatives, industry sources with knowledge of the procurement plans told Reuters on Thursday.”
Four Russian tankers, loaded in June, are reported to have halted outside of Indian ports.
They know they must have access to U.S. markets.
They are going to buy oil from the middle east.
What will China do?
... Kremlin newswire RIA Novosti published op-eds on July 30 entitled “There is no other option: no one should remain alive in Ukraine,” and “Noted: Ukraine will end very soon,” further showcasing the Kremlin’s long-standing commitment to conquering all of Ukraine ...
Erasing the second biggest country in Europe is genocidal Nazism at its most disgusting. Shame on any armchair fan of Putin’s Nazi regime.
