16.07.2025 ⇢ The Council's Dismissal, The Village's Advance
⌨The day for Russian media began with extensive reports on the discovery of a destroyed Mi-8 helicopter in the Far East, with all on board confirmed dead. Early coverage also detailed Donald Trump's initial statements ruling out long-range missiles for Ukraine, which later pivoted to reports of Patriot missiles already en route. This shift prompted a broader narrative highlighting European nations, including France and Italy, refusing to purchase US arms for Kyiv. Concurrently, the Kremlin called for international pressure on Ukraine for direct negotiations. In a key military development, Russian forces reported the liberation of Novokhatskoe village in the DPR. Mid-day saw significant attention on Ukraine's internal politics, with the Rada dismissing the government and Prime Minister. Later, President Putin's working visit to Magnitogorsk, focusing on industrial development and social policies, became a prominent domestic theme. The day concluded with reports of extensive Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian regions.
