Ukraine’s top commander Oleksandr Syrskyi has urged the Trump administration to lift restrictions on U.S. weapons and send longer-range missiles. In an interview with The Washington Post, he said Ukraine needs ATACMS, Patriots, and more air defense to hit Russian targets directly and deter further attacks. Syrskyi defended last year’s Kursk operation as crucial, saying it inflicted 80,000 Russian casualties.

At today’s 29th Ramstein meeting, 52 nations reaffirmed support for Ukraine’s defense. Key allies pledged Patriot systems, 200K+ Gepard rounds, €1B+ for drones, and F-16 support. A new NATO-US mechanism will streamline arms deliveries. "Together, we strengthen Ukraine and move closer to lasting peace," Minister of Defense Shmyhal added.

The US House of Representatives voted (353–76) to continue military aid to Ukraine. Amendment No. 116 by Marjorie Taylor Greene, which aimed to strip funding for Ukraine from the 2026 defense appropriations bill, was rejected.

Trump: “I’ve spoken with most major countries—they’re very enthusiastic. They’re ready to go far, very far. You asked how far I’d go? They’re the ones ready to push it. They don’t want this to continue. For Putin, that should matter. His economy is in bad shape. He needs to fix it. He could save the country, but the economy could destroy it—many have been ruined that way. He has a great country for trade. If he used assets instead of war, there’s huge potential. That’s what I’d tell him.”

A Belarusian Mi-24 helicopter reportedly shot down a Russian Gerbera strike drone on July 12 as it flew toward Ukraine. The drone’s wreckage fell in Belarus’ Homyel region, according to local media.

At the Croatia summit, 13 countries—Ukraine, Croatia, Moldova, Montenegro, Albania, North Macedonia, Romania, Slovenia, Greece, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Turkey—backed Ukraine’s NATO membership, calling it the best security option and pledging deeper support, tougher sanctions on Russia, and aid for Ukraine’s recovery.

Tucker Carlson has called for stripping U.S. citizenship from those fighting in foreign wars—specifically mentioning Americans fighting for Ukraine and Israel. “You cannot be a U.S. citizen and simultaneously fight for another country’s interests,” he said.

Russia's military grouping against Ukraine has grown to over 700,000 troops, according to Ukraine's Foreign Intelligence Service. This marks an increase from May, when the figure stood at around 640,000.

Putin is a strategic fool and a military failure. He wanted to destroy Ukraine, but it will become a member of the EU—and eventually NATO, said Finnish President Alexander Stubb.

“All reports confirm that US aid deliveries have resumed,” Zelensky said in his evening address. He noted positive signals at the highest political levels, both from the United States and European allies.

Russian military channels report Ukraine is nearing final development and production of the HRIM-2 ballistic missile. Comparable to ATACMS, it reportedly has a 200–500 km range, 100–350 kg warheads, and speeds up to 3,000 m/s. A major step in Ukraine’s strike capability.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz confirmed at a Rome conference that Germany is prepared to purchase additional Patriot air defense systems from the US for delivery to Ukraine.

Trump: “Putin showers us with bullshit. It sounds nice but means nothing. I’m very seriously considering sanctions against Russia. I’m not happy with Putin—he’s killing a lot of soldiers, his own and theirs. We’ve given the Ukrainians the best weapons ever made.”

Europeans will never abandon Ukraine, Macron said, adding that France and the UK must work together to protect the international order established in 1945. “We will fight until the last moment to ensure peace in Ukraine,” he stated.
