On July 4, Russia launched a massive assault on Ukraine, deploying 550 drones and missiles, which resulted in numerous casualties, particularly in Kyiv.

The Ukrainian Air Force reported that during this attack, 322 Russian drones were launched against Ukraine, with 157 intercepted and 135 going off radar.

This wave of strikes led to at least two deaths and around thirty injuries across various regions of Ukraine.

In addition to the casualties in Kyiv, Russian attacks in Kherson and Kharkiv also resulted in one death and several injuries.

In response to the ongoing aggression, the Ukrainian army successfully targeted a Russian military airfield in Borissoglebsk, Voronezh Oblast, damaging a bomb depot and a training aircraft.

This airfield is known to be a base for Russian Su-34, Su-35S, and Su-30SM aircraft, with claims that additional planes were likely affected.

Amid these developments, US President Donald Trump revealed he had a 'very strategic call' with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss enhancing Ukraine's air defenses.

During their conversation, they agreed to collaborate on strengthening Ukraine's aerial protection following a series of significant drone and missile attacks.

Zelensky also announced a new arms co-production agreement with Denmark, emphasizing its importance for European security and investment.

Trump expressed dissatisfaction with a previous call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, indicating a lack of progress towards ending the war in Ukraine and hinting at possible new sanctions against Russia.
