Lt. Col. Davis: Hellish Times Have Come to Ukraine — Day 1242 of the SVO
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[REGNUM] "Hellish times" have come for Ukraine, retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis said on the YouTube channel Deep Dive on July 19. Commenting on the consequences of the massive strikes by the Russian army on enterprises of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex (MIC), he pointed to the numerical superiority of the Russian Armed Forces, which does not allow Kiev militants to decide which gap to close in the defense.

The authors of the British newspaper The Guardian spoke in the same spirit, stating that on July 19 Ukraine experienced a "hellish" night due to Russian strikes. The new, 1242nd day of the special operation (SVO) in Ukraine was marked by a discussion of this news, among other things.

The Russian Defense Ministry previously reported that Russian troops launched a group strike on Ukrainian defense industry enterprises producing components for missiles and attack drones on the night of July 19. The military department also reported that the infrastructure of the enemy's military airfield, territorial recruitment center (TRC, similar to a military registration and enlistment office) and a number of other facilities had been damaged.

Meanwhile, the American newspaper The New York Times (NYT) reported that in June the Russian Armed Forces made their greatest advance in the SVO zone since the beginning of 2025.

"In June, the country's numerical superiority in manpower and air power provided it with its largest monthly territorial gain since the beginning of the year," the authors noted.

Journalists also pointed to the ongoing attacks by Russian troops on the Ukrainian army, which is already experiencing problems with its manpower.

The Russian armed forces have a strategic advantage in all directions, noted Russian President Vladimir Putin at a meeting with heads of international news agencies on June 18.
