First cargo ship to be loaded with grain arrives in Ukraine since Feb. 24

U.S. Special Envoy for Ukraine Keith Kellogg will arrive in Kyiv on July 14 for a week-long visit, he told a Novyny Live journalist at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome.

The deal is one of the largest publicly disclosed investments in Ukrainian defense technology since Russia's full-scale invasion began in 2022.

Regional authorities reported casualties in at least six Ukrainian oblasts over the past day.

The media investigation has identified 523 foreign nationals from 28 countries who were killed while serving in the Russian army.

During several months of testing, the system intercepted nearly 550 Russian drones over Kyiv Oblast, an official said.

Former Infrastructure Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov denied any connections with controversial lawmaker Yevhenii Shevchenko's fraud case.

Russia's Defense Ministry claimed its forces downed 155 Ukrainian drones overnight, including 53 over Kursk Oblast and 13 over Tula Oblast.

Mediazona's source said that Mikhail Ryumin was unaware that his vehicle was carrying Ukrainian drones hidden beneath the roofs of the frame house structures.

A Russian attack against the southern city of Odesa injured at least eight people and damaged residential areas, local authorities reported.

Russian assets frozen by the West should not be released until Moscow pays back at least 500 billion euros (over $580 billion) in compensation to Ukraine, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said on July 10 in Rome.

According to the Energy Ministry, the initiative will restore heating and water services to millions of Ukrainians, particularly in front-line communities.

Ukraine has received more than $18.5 billion from frozen Russian assets this year, directing the money toward swift recovery projects, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said.

At least two were killed and 28 injured in a Russian attack on Kyiv overnight on July 10. The assault comes a day after Russia launched its largest-ever drone and missile strike against Ukraine since the start of the full-scale war.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Ukraine needs a total of 10 Patriots and voiced hope that other European partners will join the new financing scheme.

The number includes 1,040 casualties that Russian forces suffered just over the past day.
