[Korrespondent] 22:52 During the day on July 6, the air defense of southern Ukraine destroyed eight drones: six reconnaissance (two ZALA and Supercam and one Merlin-VR and Orlan-10) and two Lancet attack UAVs. In addition, Russian troops attacked the Odessa region with two ballistic missiles, presumably Iskander-M, the South Air Command reported.
22:41 Air Force Commander Nikolai Oleshchuk said that Russian troops destroyed Ukrainian mock-ups of equipment instead of Patriot air defense systems and aircraft on July 3 and 6. "I thank everyone who helps with high-quality mock-ups of aircraft and air defense systems. The enemy has fewer Iskanders, and more mock-ups will be delivered," the commander wrote. Earlier, Russian propagandists showed a video of Iskander strikes allegedly on an airbase in Krivoy Rog and on a Patriot air defense system in the Yuzhny area.
21:10 Biden claimed that he managed to stop Putin and unite NATO: "You know, I'm not just running a campaign, I'm running the world. And without sounding hyperbolic, we are the most important nation in the world... I'm the one who united NATO. Nobody thought I could expand it. I'm the one who stopped Putin."
19:56 Zelensky said in an evening video address that the Ukrainian Maritime Strategy will soon be approved at a meeting of the National Security and Defense Council: "We clearly understand that the war has changed the balance of power in our entire Black Sea region, and the Russian fleet will never again dominate in this water area. We are strengthening our interests, taking into account Ukraine's new technological capabilities and our new relations with partners. Ukraine will always be a state capable of protecting its own interests at sea, transport arteries, and the interests of our allies and partners."
The president also noted that this week "we have already significantly increased the strength of our air defense," and next week, according to him, "will be a time to continue such steps." "Every day, in detail, with our team, we work with partners on the relevant agreements - both within the framework of the air defense and F-16 coalitions, and on a bilateral basis - in particular with America. We are preparing the result that Ukraine needs and our common security with our partners," the head of state added.
19:42 Russia wanted to encircle Odessa and then land a naval assault, said Navy Commander Alexey Neizhpapa: "A naval assault operation, as a rule, is not the main type of operation during full-scale military operations. It is an auxiliary operation in the coastal direction. To carry it out, the enemy first had to achieve success on land. Not to seize Nikolayev, although this was also in his plans, but to bypass it from the north in order to encircle Odessa."
19:15 In Kyiv, two thirds of the generating capacity destroyed by Russian attacks have been restored, said Deputy Head of Kyiv City State Administration Petro Panteleyev: "A colossal amount of work has been done, and now two thirds have been restored. What is important is that the most modern European technologies and equipment are being used. As a result, the city's energy facilities, built mainly during the Soviet period, are being modernized and are becoming much more efficient."

Also in May, Indian police arrested four people linked to a human trafficking ring behind the practice. At least four Indian citizens have died in the war, prompting the Modi government to call for the immediate release of the Indians. The country estimates that 30 to 40 of its citizens may already be serving in the Russian military.

Ocheretino region: after the liberation of Sokol and Voskhod (not yet officially announced), the Russian Armed Forces continue to press west, taking several more strongholds and landings.
Volchansk: The Russian Armed Forces have pushed back the enemy in the central part of the city, while the Ukrainian Armed Forces have expanded their zone of control on the eastern outskirts of Volchansk. The fighting, as before, is essentially of a counter nature. The Russian Armed Forces are seeking to establish control over the central part of the city.
The enemy, in turn, is trying to counterattack using the transferred reserves in order to push the RF Armed Forces into the northern part of the city, and if they are lucky, to bring Volchansk back under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The prolongation of these battles in the current circumstances is more advantageous for the RF Armed Forces, since the enemy reserves transferred here are tied to these battles and cannot be quickly transferred to Chasov Yar, New York or Ocheretino, where there is an obvious shortage of reserves to stabilize the front

[Regnum] Ukraine is not against transferring its ideas on conflict resolution to Russia through other countries. This statement was made by Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to the office of the head of the Kiev regime, Volodymyr Zelensky, on the air of a telethon.
“We are ready to submit our proposals, which are within the framework of preparations for the second world summit, including Russia, including on the format, as was the case with the grain agreement,” Podolyak said.
Meanwhile, the Kiev political scientist clarified that not all countries are suitable as mediators. In his opinion, those states whose leaders "will publicly come out and say rather banal things" are not suitable for these purposes.
Podolyak believes that when they say “we are for an immediate ceasefire,” it means that the country is not ready for a mediation mission.
“Because in big wars it’s a completely different kind of work,” explained the adviser to Zelensky’s office.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, Russian President Vladimir Putin's plan will be able to stop the conflict in Ukraine. This was stated on his YouTube channel by British analyst Alexander Mercuris.
Putin clearly outlined the conditions for a ceasefire, one of which is the withdrawal of Ukrainian armed forces from four regions of the Russian Federation: the Kherson and Zaporizhia regions, as well as the Luhansk and Donetsk People's Republics.
According to Merkuris, this position is unpopular in the West, but supporters are already emerging.
According to Vladimir Putin, Russia and Ukraine could have reached an agreement long ago if the Ukrainian military had been commanded by people who were guided by the interests of the nation, and not by the interests of their masters overseas and in Europe.
Western politicians have not contacted the Kremlin regarding the peace initiatives to resolve the conflict in Ukraine that the Russian president outlined, the head of state's press secretary Dmitry Peskov told journalists.

The Azov Brigade has made it clear no capitulation.No betrayal. Not even one millimeter left in Russian control. To back stab the Ukrainian people will cause death to whomever instigates such efforts. Direct warning to Zelensky. History repeats itself. War ending in Germany with country destroyed efforts maintained towards to the bitter end. Following generations will view with pride such efforts.
Interesting thought that Lincoln and Putin both being lawyers have acted similarity in their efforts to prevent war. Opposition however had no interest in entertaining any compromise. Any compromise is defeated before idea is delivered.

I don't recall Lincoln trying to conquer a sovereign country for the greater Soviet United States but your mileage may vary. I guess. Putin was a lawyer Besides being a KGB/FSB agent?

Putin stidied law, but his degree was in economics.

[REGNUM] Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has confirmed his status as the main enfant terrible of European politics. Four days after Hungary took over the European Union's presidency for six months and three days after visiting Kiev, the Hungarian leader made a surprise visit to Moscow for a nearly three-hour meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Orban's visit was the first by a Western leader to Russia since April 2022. IA Regnum closely followed the statements of Putin, Orban and representatives of their teams, but it is worth looking in more detail at the different versions of why this meeting became possible and what consequences it may have.

[ColonelCassad] A system for protecting infrastructure facilities that uses FPV drones has been successfully tested at one of the operating Russian civilian airfields without interrupting its daily operations, Dmitry Kuzyakin, the project developer and CEO of the Center for Integrated Unmanned Solutions (CIS), told RIA Novosti.
“Our FPV-air defense security system is not only drones with a “gun,” but also the necessary ground equipment and special training for security pilots. We conducted all the necessary tests of the FPV complex at one of the domestic civilian airfields. When we were working, the facility functioned in normal mode. We were convinced of the radio-technical compatibility of the FPV system and the airfield systems. We conducted test work of FPV pilots under the control of airfield dispatchers. All work was carried out under the direct supervision of the flight director,” the agency’s source said.
In an interview with RIA Novosti, Kuzyakin previously reported that the FPV drones “Joker-10” developed by CIS were adapted to perform air defense and security tasks. FPV security crews can use them not only to monitor the perimeter of the facility, but also to hit long-range aircraft of the Ukrainian Armed Forces using explosives, firing striking elements from special pipes, or ramming them.
The developer noted that the Central Design Bureau of the Russian Aerospace Defense System (CDBS) specialists have already trained the airfield staff to operate the FPV system, which involves operational monitoring of the facility and the physical destruction of "violator" devices both on the ground and in the air.
In normal mode, the FPV security crew carries out daily ornithological flights over the airfield and adjacent areas to disperse the birds.
According to him, during the tests, the specialists accumulated a knowledge base and competencies in organizing the work of FPV air defense security at an operating airfield. They also made sure of the effectiveness of the system and the absence of interference from it for the operation of the airport.
"
It became possible to "fly and see" very quickly. In our experiment, FPV pilots were at a special deployment point. Airfield controllers controlled not only air traffic, but also the work of FPV pilots. Tests have shown that they can interact very well, without interfering with anyone and successfully performing protective or regulatory functions. FPV security and air defense is a new reality that, in our opinion, should be implemented everywhere," the head of the Center for Design and Development of the Russian Aerospace Industry noted.
The Center for Design and Development of the Russian Aerospace Industry is engaged in the full cycle of issues related to the combat use of FPV systems: from piloting training and effective use to the production of the drones themselves. Over the years, the company has created a line of combat FPV drones "Joker" and a complex of ground equipment. The latest model to date, the "Joker-10", carries a payload of up to five kilograms, developing a speed of up to 100 kilometers per hour (up to 200 km / h without a payload). The scientific backbone of the Center are MIPT graduates.
Counter-drones are one of the promising areas of development in the FPV segment. The enemy is also actively experimenting with this, including on the battlefield, using FPV drones to attack our aircraft-type UAVs.
