Video: Special Operations Forces soldiers secretly infiltrated the hideouts of Russian occupiers
While carrying out a special mission behind enemy lines, a group from the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ Special Operations Forces discovered well-camouflaged Russian hideouts and captured two occupiers without firing a single shot.
The Ukrainian special forces operatives approached the shelters unnoticed, opened them, woke the Russians, and whispered to the occupiers that they should not resist. The Special Operations Forces emphasized that replenishing the prisoner exchange pool is a crucial task for bringing Ukrainian defenders home.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that the Security Service of Ukraine is preparing new operations against Russia. During a meeting with SBU Director Oleksandr Poklad, the head of state heard a report on the agency’s plans and priorities for August and approved the corresponding measures.
On the night of August 4, 2026, drones attacked a distribution center belonging to “Lenta,” one of Russia’s largest supermarket chains, in the Leningrad Oblast. The strike caused a fire at the facility, and operations at the goods receiving warehouse were temporarily suspended.
