Biden administration to announce its final $1.2 billion Ukraine aid package under USAI, Reuters reports

One person was killed and one injured as an oil depot in Russia's Krasnodar Krai was hit in a reported Ukrainian drone attack on July 24, with explosions and drones seen in the city of Sochi.

The shipments have allowed Russian weapons-maker IEMZ Kupol to boost its Garpiya drone output, despite sanctions imposed by the U.S. and EU in October aimed at disrupting its supply chain.

During the talks, Ukraine proposed holding a summit between President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin before the end of August, according to National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umerov, who led the Ukrainian delegation.

The package will include five-ton cargo trucks, spare parts, and the refurbishment and overhaul of air defense fire units.

Ukraine has brought home a group of soldiers released from Russian captivity, President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on July 23, marking yet another in a recent series of exchanges with Moscow.

Belarusian Deputy Defense Minister Pavel Muraveika said Minsk originally chose to move the joint Russian-Belarusian drills away from the western frontier to ease tensions, but that decision may now be reconsidered.

"We see what people expect from state institutions — ensured justice and the effective functioning of each institution," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

The attack followed the publication of a critical editorial and in-depth coverage of the government's push to expand the prosecutor general's control over key anti-corruption agencies.
