Combat Briefing Number 1259
"From:" Colonel A.C. Oguntoye, Infantry Officer
"Date:" August 1, 2025
"Subject:" SITREP – Summary of Combat Operations, July 26–August 1, 2025
"Classification:" UNCLAS // Analyst Summary

"Executive Summary:"
Between July 26 and August 1, 2025, the Russian Armed Forces executed seven precision group strikes using long-range weapons and strike UAVs. These targeted Ukraine's military-industrial complex, airfield infrastructure, UAV production lines, robotic system warehouses, missile stockpiles, and command nodes. All objectives were confirmed hit, indicating continued Russian dominance in strategic deep-strike capabilities.

"Northern Operational Zone (Sumy & Kharkiv):"
The "North Group" degraded enemy force posture by defeating two mechanized, two airborne assault brigades, and two assault regiments. In the Kharkiv region, Ukrainian mechanized, tank, motorized, and territorial brigades were pushed back. Cumulative losses: "1,245 personnel", "4 tanks", "13 armored vehicles", "47 vehicles", "30 artillery pieces", and "26 depots". The region’s operational coherence continues to erode under pressure.

"Western Front (Kharkiv-Donetsk Axis):"
The "West Group" took up more favorable tactical lines while defeating three Ukrainian mechanized, assault, and airmobile brigades, plus two territorial defense brigades. Weekly toll: "1,630 personnel", "10 armored vehicles", "88 transport vehicles", "9 artillery systems", and a notable "31 EW/counter-battery systems". Strategic degradation of Ukrainian C4ISR capabilities is evident.

"Southern Theater (Donetsk Core):"
The "Southern Group" made a major breakthrough with the "liberation of Chasiv Yar", a pivotal urban node in the Donetsk region. Multiple Ukrainian formations, including elite mountain and airmobile brigades, were routed. Losses included "1,325 personnel", "2 tanks", "8 armored vehicles", "24 artillery pieces", and "22 supply depots". Control of Chasiv Yar enhances logistics and fire control in central Donetsk.

"Central Offensive (Donetsk & Dnipropetrovsk):"
The "Center Group" led the most impactful push, liberating "Boykovka, Belgiyka", and "Novoukrainka". Ukrainian losses were extensive: "2,875 personnel", "24 armored vehicles", "2 tanks", "32 vehicles", and "21 artillery systems". The systematic breakdown of infantry, airborne, marine, and national guard formations suggests near-exhaustion of Ukraine’s central reserve strength.

"Eastern Front (Donetsk-Zaporizhia-Dnipropetrovsk):"
The "East Group" liberated "Zeleny Hai", "Maliyevka", and "Temirovka", defeating four mechanized and four territorial brigades. Ukrainian losses totaled "1,410 troops", "2 tanks", "17 armored vehicles", and "78 vehicles". The sweep into deeper Ukrainian positions continues to shrink maneuver space and operational flexibility in the southeast.

"Dnepr Group (Kherson-Zaporizhia Axis):"
This week, the "Dnepr Group" neutralized two mechanized, two coastal, and three territorial brigades. Enemy losses: "420 personnel", "25 vehicles", "6 artillery systems", and destruction of "42 EW/radar stations" and "34 logistical depots". Coastal defense degradation opens potential for flanking operations along the Dnipro corridor.

"Strategic Fires & Air Defense Activity:"
Across all theaters, Russian fires assets struck over 100 critical locations. Air defenses intercepted "6 HIMARS", "3 Vampire MLRS", "6 guided bombs", "1 Neptune missile", and "1,446 UAVs", showcasing continued layered air defense effectiveness.

"Operational Analysis & Implications:"
This reporting period marks a "strategic inflection point". The liberation of Chasiv Yar, successful deep-strike campaigns, and incremental collapse of Ukrainian EW and artillery support capacity indicate that Russia is shaping the operational environment for decisive maneuvers in Donetsk and Zaporizhia. Ukraine’s capacity for organized defense is increasingly dependent on external resupply and degraded coordination networks.
