President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky dismissed Hryhoriy Halahan from the position of head of the Special Operations Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and appointed combat general Viktor Horenko in his place.

The first three Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns have arrived in Ukraine from Germany (there will be 15 of them in total), and the Russian troops in Kherson oblast have significant problems with logistics due to active shelling by the Armed Forces.

The occupiers lose warehouses, manpower, and supplies, and because of the attacks on the three bridges, they cannot not recover quickly.

Ukraine said it destroyed 50 Russian ammunition depots using the US-supplied high mobility artillery rocket systems (Himars) on Monday. The systems, delivered late last month, have turned the war in Ukraine’s favour by dismantling Russia’s logistics and slowing down its offensive, say Ukrainian authorities. “This cuts [Russian] logistical chains and takes away their ability to conduct active fighting and hit our armed forces with heavy shelling”, - Ukraine’s minister of defence, Oleksii Reznikov, said.

The appeal of Ukraine’s first war crimes conviction was adjourned on Monday, as prosecutors keep pushing to hold Russia legally accountable for atrocities. Vadim Shishimarin, a 21-year-old captured Russian soldier who pleaded guilty to killing a civilian and was sentenced in May by a Ukrainian court to life in prison, sat in a glass box in the courtroom as he faced news cameras.

Russian troops have attacked Odesa Region with strategic aircraft. Besides, on the night of July 26, occupiers opened fire on the city of Kharkiv.
