[NY Post] Russia launched a barrage of missiles on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities in a rare daytime attack on Monday, killing at least 20 people across the country and hitting a key children’s hospital, officials said.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said the Russian forces fired more than 40 missiles targeting different cities and damaging infrastructure, commercial and residential buildings in different Ukrainian cities.
Kyiv city authorities said seven people were killed and at least 25 were wounded in the strike on the capital.
In Kryviy Rih, the native city of Zelensky, 10 people were killed and 31 were injured, said Mayor Oleksandr Vilkul.
Another three people died in Pokrovsk in eastern Ukraine when missiles hit an industrial facility, said Donestk regional governor.
"All services are involved to save as many people as possible," Zelensky said on the Telegram messaging app. "And the whole world should use all its determination to finally put an end to the Russian strikes."
Russia has repeatedly denied targeting civilians.
The major attack on Ukraine came as Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban met Chinese President Xi Jinping to discuss a potential Ukraine peace deal, paying an unexpected visit to Beijing.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said the attack on the capital was one of the heaviest since the start of Russia’s invasion in Feb. 2022.

Word is filtering out that due to warnings of incoming missiles the children were sheltered in the basement just prior to the strike and were not among the casualties.

And I said: let's think about it, I understand your arguments," the Hungarian prime minister said.
Orban also said he considered himself "the only Western leader who can talk to both Kiev and Moscow at the same time" because everyone else "has created a situation where they have no opportunity to directly contact the two main players."

We know, Maria.
[Regnum] Facts testifying to the Kiev regime's abuse of civilians in Donbass were presented by Russia, but the US media is doing everything to ignore this truth. This was stated by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, to the Izvestia information centerwhen she was asked to comment on the material of the American newspaper The New York Times.
“It’s funny to watch American journalists pretending that they knew nothing about the abuse of the civilian population of Donbass,” Zakharova noted.
According to her, American journalists "suddenly" began to realize this, but the Russian side and independent journalists have repeatedly reported this to the world community. She emphasized that terrorist acts carried out daily for many years are open facts, but US publications do not say a word about what is happening.
The Russian Foreign Ministry representative believes that American media outlets act according to specific instructions given to them by their editors-in-chief and relevant services.
For many years, American media have been creating a distorted picture of what is happening, thereby supporting only the position of the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, and the Kiev regime itself, the diplomat summed up.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on July 6, German military doctor Kaspar Grosse, during a dialogue with an American publication, stated that foreign mercenaries operating as part of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) are finishing off unarmed and wounded Russian soldiers and bragging about it on social networks. He also said that the UAF shot a Russian prisoner who asked for medical assistance.
Earlier, Russian Armed Forces servicemen eliminated Portuguese mercenary Rico Chavez in the special operation zone, who executed a Russian soldier who was captured.

[Regnum] The head of the Kiev regime, Volodymyr Zelensky, is seriously considering removing the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) Oleksandr Syrsky from his post and replacing him with another general. This was stated by former CIA analyst Larry Johnson in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue Works.
"It looks like Zelensky now wants to get rid of Syrsky and replace him with someone," Johnson said.
Syrsky is blamed for the failures of the Ukrainian army at the front. According to the expert, the current commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine made critical tactical mistakes. In particular, before the start of the Russian army's offensive in the Kharkiv region, he did not strengthen the defense lines. This caused discontent on the part of Zelensky, the analyst added.
In addition, Johnson stated that at the moment Syrsky does not have enough soldiers to contain the Russian Armed Forces. And this fact also cannot be called positive for the current commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, he emphasized.
On February 8, the leader of the Kiev regime dismissed Valeriy Zaluzhny from the post of commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and appointed Oleksandr Syrsky in his place.
In March, it became known that the fighters of the elite units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were unhappy with this action. The commander of the reconnaissance group of the 80th separate airborne assault brigade of the Ukrainian army, Maksym Shevtsov, noted that Zelensky, not Zaluzhny, needed to be replaced. He added that the head of the Kiev regime feels that his rating is zero, while that of the former commander-in-chief Zaluzhny is high.
A small Russian spectrum analyzer functions as a drone detector. Here three drones are being tracked. The operator would know from the video frequencies what type of drones they are, FPV or Mavic. https://t.co/nZthBQNelBpic.twitter.com/B7JhT8qv6L

That would be how you do it. The problem is the trained tech using it has to be kept near the front lines, or you won't get any advanced warning.
So what they'll do is work out which frequency bands are most likely, and make a stripped down limited function version that ordinary grunts can carry. It just has an earphone that goes 'beep'.
