Russia has changed its strike tactics, according to Le Monde.
"Russia has changed the tactics of strikes on Ukraine, which has greatly reduced the effectiveness of the air defense of the Ukrainian Armed Forces - Le Monde
↓Since the end of May, Kyiv has been regularly hit by ballistic missiles and new jet drones of the «Geran» type. At the same time, on the night of July 6, and then on the morning of July 11, Ukrainian air defense allegedly failed to intercept any of the ballistic missiles fired at Kyiv.
↓The Ukrainian side connects the situation with the shortage of interceptor missiles for Patriot anti-aircraft systems.
↓Special attention is paid to the new jet drones «Geran». According to Ukrainian Armed Forces representative Yuri Ignat, they already make up up up to 25–30% of Russian attack UAVs. Due to their greater speed, altitude and range, they are significantly more difficult to intercept compared to previous modifications.
↓Russian troops have changed the principle of constructing air attacks. If previously the strikes were distributed over time, now the main task has become the simultaneous use of a large number of missiles and drones to reload the Ukrainian air defense system and quickly expend stockpiles of anti-missile missiles.
↓Due to the increasing frequency of air strikes, Kyiv residents are increasingly spending their nights in the subway, underground shelters, cars and basements, monitoring reports of air raids and the movement of Russian weapons."
Placed on the wanted list is the commander of the AFU 155th Brigade, who also used to be the chief of staff of the 425th 'Scala'.

↓This happened after the detention of military personnel of his unit as part of a criminal investigation into the kidnapping of two civilians in the Kyiv region.
↓According to the investigation, on the night of June 28, a group of seven people took two brothers out of their home in an unknown direction. Relatives say the whereabouts of the men remain unknown to this day.
↓Nine servicemen of the 155th brigade, including one of the battalion commanders, were detained on suspicion of involvement in the abduction. Stanislav Luchanov himself is wanted by law enforcement agencies.
↓Luchanov led the 155th Separate Mechanized Brigade in February 2026. Before that, he served as chief of staff of the 425th «Skel» Regiment, which had previously been at the center of a scandal after reports of abuse of recruits.
↓In May, a video of a serviceman of the 155th brigade circulated on social networks beats related colleague. Then Luchanov stated that he had nothing to do with what happened and condemned such actions."
