🇵🇱🇺🇦 Kiev has already received 10 MiG-29 fighter jets from Warsaw and it is possible that they will receive about 20 more.

Ambassador of Ukraine to Poland Vasyl Zvarych said this in an interview with Ukrinform.

💬 "So far, 10 MiG-29s have been handed over, but it is possible that Poland will hand over the rest - about 20 aircraft of this type that they still have in service. However, this will most likely happen after Poland starts receiving aircraft from Western countries."

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦🇬🇧 From Rezident_UA's Telegram Channel:

💬 "Our source within the Presidential Office has revealed that with the support of British intelligence, a plan is being developed for cargo ships to pass through the ports of the Odessa region. Currently, negotiations are underway with private companies to acquire several ships that will symbolically sail to Odessa and provoke Russia into an attack. If the cargo ships pass through peacefully, Ukraine will declare the grain corridor safe. However, if an attack on these peaceful ships occurs, Ukraine aims to launch an international campaign against Russia."

🐻 Please note that this information is based on an alleged insider information, so take it with a pinch of salt. Although it does seem plausible.

🇷🇺❌🇺🇦🌾 At least 10 foreign cargo ships are now in the ports of Nikolaev and Odessa. They have time to get out of there before midnight, otherwise Russia may consider them involved in a military conflict on the side of Ukraine reports Mash.

The ships sail under the flags of African and Asian states. Three of them are registered in Liberia, two in Hong Kong, two in Palau. One more in the Caymans, Belize and Panama.

Recall that after the end of the grain deal, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced that from July 20 it will consider all ships entering the Black Sea as potential carriers of military cargo. And ships of foreign states will be considered parties to the conflict. What will happen to the ships already in Ukraine is unknown.

🇷🇺❌🇺🇦 Russia will never abandon the goals that were announced as part of a special military operation - Sergei Lavrov, Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation.

“We know what we are fighting for. Let the West every day discuss the imaginary offensive of Ukraine, the difficulties created by Russia for the counteroffensive and for achieving their (Kiev authorities) goals of liberating the entire territory up to the 1991 borders.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Ukrainians with NATO Armor Launch Offensive near Orekhovo on the Zaporozhye Front and Grinds to a Halt - @RVvoenkor Report

➡️On the evening of July 19th, Ukrainian Armed Forces conducted several hours of intensive artillery preparation before commencing an offensive operation along the Ratobino-Verbovo line.

➡️Subsequently, NATO armored vehicles and a significant number of infantry troops advanced into the battle. However, upon facing resistance fire, the AFU began to retreat and disperse into different positions, causing the advancing force to come to a standstill.

➡️Russian reconnaissance units report AFU forces regrouping and reinforcements being brought closer to the attack directions.

➡️The intensity of the fighting has subsided, with artillery fire diminishing.

➡️The AFU have not returned to their original positions, and there are expectations of a possible resumption of their offensive in the near future.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Situation in the Solodar Sector, July 19, 2023 - @Rybar Report

The situation in the Solodar Sector remains tense. To the north of Artyomovsk, fighting continues in the vicinity of the Berkhovka Reservoir, although with decreasing intensity.

➡️The Ukrainians are attempting to advance in the Dubovo-Vasilevka area, acting in small groups with the support of light armored vehicles. The Russian Armed Forces are countering these attacks with artillery fire.

➡️To the south of Artyomovsk, the heaviest battles are taking place around Klescheevka, where the Ukrainians keep reinforcing with new troops, trying to hold the adjacent positions and fortified areas on the heights.

➡️Additionally, Ukrainian Armed Forces' maneuvering units attempted to break through to Andreevka, to the south of Klescheevka. The AFU were halted in the positions, where fighting persisted throughout the day.

➡️Furthermore, there are confirmations of intense battles for the fortified area northwest of Klescheevka.

🎥 Footage of the artillery strikes on occupied enemy positions and the aftermath of multiple attacks were published on the channel of the 4th Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces.

➡️Ukrainian formations suffered heavy losses and, at least partially, retreated, leaving numerous bodies and destroyed equipment within the fortified area.

➡️Currently, while the fortified area may not be entirely occupied by Russian troops, it is undoubtedly within the gray zone.

🐻 There are several reports of a large scale Russian counterattack in this area of the front. More updates will be available tomorrow.

🇷🇺🇧🇾 International Gymnastics Federation Announces Russian and Belarusian Athletes Eligible to Compete Again

The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) has made a decision allowing Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete as neutrals in sanctioned events.

This move was recommended by the International Olympic Committee back in March. In April, FIG president Morinari Watanabe expressed that Russian and Belarusian athletes, who were not involved in the war, should be given the opportunity to participate.

Since the start of the conflict in Ukraine in February 2022, athletes from both countries have faced bans in numerous sports.

✉️🇷🇺❌🌾🇺🇦 Ukraine, in a letter to the International Maritime Organization, said that it had created a mechanism to provide "damage compensation guarantees" to companies and ships visiting Ukrainian ports after the completion of the grain deal.

This was reported by Reuters with reference to the letter.

According to the letter, Ukraine states that this mechanism will work for vessels that are in Ukrainian territorial waters or heading to or from Ukrainian ports.

At the same time, Mikhail Podolyak, adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, said on the air of the Rada TV channel that not a single cargo ship would call at Ukrainian ports on the Black Sea after the termination of the grain deal.

"Not a single country will dare to send its ships. And this is not a question of ships, this is a question of insurance companies," Podolyak said.
