19:36 Russia may try to create crises in Europe - for example, by sending a large number of migrants to the borders of the EU. Either he can plan terrorist attacks on infrastructure facilities in order to come to some kind of negotiating position, or seek other benefits for himself, Podolyak said in an interview with The Hill.
The adviser to the head of the Presidential Office emphasized that President Zelensky is unequivocally against negotiations with Moscow, and Ukrainian society is also unshakable. Therefore, in his opinion, if Putin fails to engage Kyiv in such negotiations, he is likely to focus on a war of attrition, expecting a decrease in international support for Ukraine.
19:05 Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov announced an enemy attack on the Shevchenko district of the city. A cassette Hurricane hit the territory of one of the enterprises, there were no casualties and no fire.
18:28 Russia is deploying a newly formed third army corps to the border with Ukraine, according to the Conflict Intelligence Team, citing photos and videos of the transportation of Russian military equipment by rail. We are talking about the Buk anti-aircraft complex, the T-80BV and T-90M tanks. According to analysts, the transportation of the Buk complexes indicates the transfer of a large formation - the entire third corps, or at least its combat-ready part.

Of these, 428 bodies were delivered from Mariupol, of which more than 300 were defenders of Azovstal.
Kotenko said that Ukraine is handing over to the Russian side the locations where there are dead defenders: “They have to pick them up, and then we carry out exchanges. But the Russian Federation does not always want to go to the war zone, although a regime of silence is declared. "They took the bodies of our guys. Due to the huge losses of personnel, the Russians cannot cope with their dead."
17:30 Russia plans to increase the number of troops in Ukraine by another 90 thousand people, Vadim Skibitsky, a spokesman for the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, said in an interview with RBC-Ukraine. According to him, now 160,000 military men are already "occupied" here, not counting the National Guard.

"A train station is generally a civilian target and should not be the target of an attack," said Jennifer Trahan, a professor at New York University's Center for Global Issues. If civilians were the target of the attack, the attack could be regarded as a war crime.
14:37 The Cabinet of Ministers allowed sailors to cross the border only with the consent of the territorial recruitment center. Men who are crew members of sea and river vessels and continue to work on ships will be allowed to travel abroad. As well as students (cadets) of educational institutions who must undergo practical training on board.
14:06 The military contingent of the Russian Federation stationed in Kazakhstan refuses to return to their places of permanent deployment. The formal reason is the lack of special air transport, which is fully involved in the war with Ukraine. In reality, the military does not want to replenish the composition of the occupation contingent, according to the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. However, the command of the Russian Federation does not abandon its intention to completely withdraw the troops from the territory of Kazakhstan, introduced there during the suppression of the January rallies against the current government. This is about a thousand servicemen with full weapons and equipment, who are now deployed near critical infrastructure.
Also, the Russian Federation almost completely withdrew its military contingents with weapons and equipment from the territory of Tajikistan and Armenia to participate in the war against Ukraine.
13:40 This autumn will be a decisive period in the war, Vadim Skibitsky, a spokesman for the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, said in an interview with RBC-Ukraine: "The decisive period will be just autumn. If we talk about natural and climatic conditions, this is September-October. Bad weather will go , November, winter, but the hostilities will continue... Therefore, in any case, the winter period will also be difficult, because there will be harassing hostilities in order to keep the Armed Forces of Ukraine on their toes.The second is the factor of energy resources, which will definitely be used Russia in order to destabilize our internal situation, and against this background they will prepare for the spring, the resumption of powerful hostilities."
At the same time, Skibitsky expressed hope that the measures planned by Ukraine would be successful, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine would frustrate Russia's plans for further occupation and for the Donetsk region.
12:44 Great Britain will send six underwater drones to Ukraine as military assistance to search for mines in the water and on the shore, the country's Ministry of Defense said. The type of drones is not specified.
12:19 In Russia, no more than 45% of those missiles that were before the start of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine remained in Russia, Vadym Skibitsky, a representative of the Ukrainian military intelligence, said in an interview with RBC-Ukraine: "The situation with the Iskanders is especially difficult. There are generally about 20% left from what it was, or maybe even less.The difficult situation with the same Calibers is a fairly effective missile, but their number is not so large, so they use these X-22s and S-300s in the ground version.But these stocks run out."
As for the Daggers, according to Skibitsky, there are only 30-40 of them in Russia. These are the samples that first entered service. They did not go into mass production, the Russians used them to demonstrate strength to Ukraine and its partners.
11:43 Russia is transferring a new batch of heavy military equipment to Crimea - it was noticed near the Crimean bridge, Krym.Realii writes. Among the equipment, in particular: T-72 and T-80 tanks; 152 mm and 122 mm 2S19 Msta-S and Gvozdika; infantry fighting vehicles, trucks, including those based on rocket tractors, fuel tanks; engineering machines.
11:17 Special services of the Russian Federation are torturing employees of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant in order to force them not to tell anything to the IAEA inspectors about the security risks at the plant. The ZNPP workers themselves told The Telegraph about this. As one of the Ukrainian nuclear scientists noted, an atmosphere of fear now reigns at the station: "We are alarmed by a possible visit of representatives of the IAEA. Because the Russians will arrange provocations and then blame Ukraine for this. It seems that this is what they are planning to do."
The Russians are preparing various provocations on the eve of the IAEA mission. In particular, according to ZNPP workers, the occupiers plan to minimize the presence of Ukrainian personnel and place several Russian representatives in each room of the control center, “who will shout loudly that they were waiting for ‘liberation’ from the regime in Kyiv.”
Russian occupiers arrest Ukrainian personnel, send them "to the basement". "People come back from these 'talks' in the basement and don't say a word at all. It won't be a surprise if during the mission's visit they suddenly start saying what they were told," the source added.
10:43 During a special meeting, Russian Deputy Defense Minister Dmitry Bulgakov ordered to hide the facts of explosions at ammunition depots and military facilities in Crimea in any way, reports the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. In cases where information about the destruction of military facilities becomes known to the public, in order to prevent even greater panic, the occupiers will talk about the negligence of certain officials, whose names have already been established and who will be held accountable. According to Ukrainian military intelligence, thousands of Russians are trying to urgently leave the territory of Crimea after a series of explosions at military facilities.
10:16 Problematic heating season 2022-2023 will not affect European support for Ukraine, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said: "The West is united. You see NATO stronger than ever. And we will make sure that our partners in Ukraine had what they needed to fight for their freedom and sovereignty."
09:39 British intelligence writes that over the past five days, the intensity of attacks in the Donetsk direction has probably increased. To the north of Donetsk there are fierce battles in the area of the cities of Seversk and Bakhmut. The invaders seem to have moved into the center of the village of Peski, which is not far from the Donetsk airport. Overall, however, Russian forces have made few territorial gains.
There is a real possibility that Russia has stepped up its efforts in the Donbas in an attempt to bring in additional Ukrainian units amid rumors that Ukraine is planning a major counteroffensive, analysts say.

08:34 In the Donetsk region over the past day, two civilians died from Russian shelling - in Bakhmut. Another 12 people were injured, Pavel Kirilenko, head of the OVA, said.
08:10 The enemy made an attempt to improve the tactical situation in the directions of the settlements of Soledar, Zaitsevo and Mayorsk. Didn't have any success and left. In the Volyn and Polesye directions, the Russian military continues to build up the forces and means of electronic intelligence, the General Staff reports in the morning report .
07:43 In the Dnipropetrovsk region, the Russians hit the Nikopol district seven times at night and three times in the Krivoy Rog district, there were no casualties, the head of the OVA Valentin Reznichenko said.
07:30 In the Kherson region, the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed two enemy ammunition depots: one in the Engineering area, one in the Chernobaevka area, OK Pivden reported. Also, Ukrainian tactical aviation hit the enemy air defense facilities in Kherson, a stronghold, a congestion of manpower and equipment in Novopetrivka and Olgino.
07:01 As a result of a night rocket attack on the center of Kharkiv, a historic building was damaged - the house of the merchant Adam Piotrovsky, which was restored several years ago. A school in the center of Kharkiv also suffered, Mayor Igor Terekhov said.
05:16 The American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) writes that Russia is redeploying military equipment from Crimea after the attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and is also strengthening air defense on the peninsula.
Analysts also believe that the Russian occupation authorities are unlikely to be able to hold "referendums" before September 11 due to "frictions" in the occupation administrations and guerrilla attacks. All evidence suggests that the Russian authorities are seeking to give the appearance of local support and participation ahead of "referendums" to present them as widely supported initiatives, but are facing persistent setbacks that are delaying annexation attempts.
Over the past 24 hours, Russian forces have carried out limited ground attacks southwest of Izyum, northeast and south of Bakhmut, and on the northwestern outskirts of Donetsk. Ukrainian forces continued to shell Russian land lines and military infrastructure in the Kherson region supporting operations on the western bank of the Dnieper.

02:54 Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov announced a rocket attack on the central part of the city in Osnovyansky and Kievsky districts. Previously without victims and victims.
02:33 The Pentagon announced that it has signed a $ 182 million contract with Raytheon Missiles & Defense for the purchase of NASAMS short and medium-range anti-aircraft missile systems for Ukraine.
01:45 The war between Russia and Ukraine will end at the negotiating table, but only after the Russian Federation suffers significant tactical losses at the front, Podolyak said in an interview with Helsingin Sanomat.
