ISW: Ukraine has managed to significantly curtail Russia's activities in the Black Sea
As the end of February also marks the 10th anniversary of Russia’s invasion and the consequent illegal annexation of Crimea, the UK defence ministry says: Russia’s tactics against Ukraine’s creative warfare on the Black Sea are falling short.
On July 17, Ukrainian troops raised national flags in the eastern villages of Yalta and Voskresenka, located near the Donetsk-Dnipropetrovsk border—territories Russia had already claimed to have captured.
Fighters from the 31st Separate Mechanized Brigade and the 505th Separate Marine Battalion quietly entered these so-called “occupied” areas and planted the Ukrainian flag, directly challenging Moscow’s narrative of battlefield success.
Footage released by Ukraine’s 20th Corps shows the flag-raising moments and FPV drone strikes targeting Russian positions. While Russian propaganda reports daily advances, Ukrainian forces are proving that the front lines remain fluid, contested, and fiercely defended.

On the night of July 17–18, Russia launched a deadly wave of attacks across Ukraine, striking the Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhia oblasts with drones and other weapons. At least two civilians were killed and 11 injured in the Kamianske district of Dnipropetrovsk, where homes, a school, a shop, and cars were damaged. In Zaporizhzhia, Shahed drones ignited fires in non-residential buildings, injuring a 79-year-old man.

In a dramatic escalation, Russia’s Aerospace Forces have struck two key Ukrainian military sites in coordinated aerial attacks. A devastating FAB-1500 high-explosive bomb targeted a temporary deployment area of Ukraine’s elite 25th Separate Airborne Brigade near Rodinskoye in the Donetsk People's Republic, reportedly causing massive destruction. Simultaneously, a light air-to-surface guided missile precisely hit the UAV command post of the 39th Separate Coastal Defence Brigade near Olgovka in the Kherson region.
These attacks, seen as a tactical move by Russia to weaken Ukrainian battlefield coordination, come amid intensifying clashes in the east and south. The dual strike raises serious concerns about Ukraine’s ability to secure critical infrastructure and battlefield intelligence hubs. With the use of heavy aerial ordnance and advanced missile targeting, Russia is seemingly ramping up precision strikes to paralyze Ukraine's operational depth. No official casualty figures have been released yet, but the scale of the attacks indicates a significant blow to Ukrainian forces.

Germany has announced it will soon supply Ukraine with new long-range missile systems, but not the Taurus cruise missiles that Kyiv has long sought. Despite previous speculation, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius confirmed that Taurus missiles—capable of striking targets up to 500 km away—will not be sent. Instead, Germany is providing Patriot air defense systems purchased from the U.S. Chancellor Friedrich Merz emphasized that diplomatic avenues with Russia are "exhausted" and vowed to counter what he called a “criminal regime.”

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Russian President Vladimir Putin, setting a 50-day deadline to end the war in Ukraine or face sweeping consequences. Trump threatened "very steep tariffs" and harsh secondary sanctions on countries buying Russian oil. The proposed sanctions aim to criple Russia’s economy and isolate it globally. Trump’s ultimatum, delivered with unmistakable clarity, signals a possible escalation in economic warfare if Moscow refuses to agree to a ceasefire within the time limit.

Russia is issuing new and alarming warnings: Ukraine could face the loss of key cities like Odessa, Kharkov, Sumy, and more if it continues to reject diplomatic negotiations.

Donald Trump has sparked fresh controversy by claiming the Ukraine-Russia war wouldn’t have happened if Russia remained in the G-8. In a bold statement, Trump called Russia’s removal “a big mistake” and blamed former U.S. President Barack Obama and former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau for pushing Moscow out. He argued that sidelining Russia has only made global diplomacy harder. Trump's remarks reignite debate over Russia’s G-8 expulsion after Crimea’s annexation and its broader impact on global peace and Western alliances.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has exposed Russia’s latest so-called “peace memorandum” as an outright ultimatum, stating Moscow demanded Ukraine recognize its occupation of Crimea and other regions, fully withdraw troops, and accept neutrality. The second round of Istanbul talks yielded humanitarian gains, like POW swaps, but no ceasefire. Zelensky vowed not to discuss sovereignty or concede territory. While Ukraine offered prisoner exchanges and EU/NATO alignment, Russia refused compromise. The U.S. remains frustrated with Moscow’s hardline stance amid ongoing war escalation.

Ukraine claims responsibility for a massive underwater explosion targeting the Crimea (Kerch) Bridge, using over 1,100 kg of TNT-equivalent explosives. Officials say the blast damaged a key underwater support structure, yet hours later, traffic resumed on the bridge. Built by Russia in 2018, the bridge is vital for military supplies to occupied Crimea. Independent analysts confirmed the blast’s location but questioned its impact. This isn’t the first strike — but was it effective? The bridge reopened shortly after, leaving doubts about the success of Ukraine’s latest attack.
