TBH, I am more and more confused with the news
meduza.io
Law enforcement officers have arrested Telegram blogger Igor Strelkov (real surname — Girkin), who also led the troops of the Russia-backed self-proclaimed “DNR” in 2014.
"According to RBK sources, the former FSB officer was taken from his home around noon on July 21. A search is currently underway in his apartment. IA message from his wife Miroslava Reginskaya appeared on Strelkov’s Telegram channel. She claims that charges of “extremism” have been leveled against her husband.
Today, at about 11:30, representatives of the Investigative Committee came to our home. I was not in at that time. Before long, according to the concierge, they escorted my husband out and took him away in an unknown direction.
My friends told me that my husband has been charged under Article 282 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (extremism).
I don’t know anything about my husband’s whereabouts, he has not contacted me.
Igor Strelkov is a former FSB officer. He led Russia-backed troops in eastern Ukraine. From May to August 2014. He also served as defense minister of the self-proclaimed “DNR.”
In November 2022, a court in the Netherlands sentenced Strelkov to life in prison after finding him guilty in the case of the 2014 Malaysia Airlines crash in the Donetsk region.
Since the beginning of Rissia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Strelkov has regularly commented on the course of the war, and has often criticized the actions of the
Russian leadership."
Now, according to other information, Girkin/Strelkov is from GRU (military intelligence). He gave an interview (about a year ago) to Dmytro Gordon. In the interview, he explained how the Donetsk invasion was planned. He has been very much pro-war and he can't leave Russia as he will be immediately arrested abroad. He has been critical towards Russian government and military echelons but mostly in terms of poor organization of the war. An odious and controversial figure, however, his arrest is unexpected.

Russia-Ukraine war at a glance: what we know on day 514 of the invasion
Moscow ‘waging war’ on global food supply, US tells UN; Putin says it will use ‘all means at its disposal’ to defend Belarus after Warsaw moves troops to east
- Russia is “waging war on the world’s food supply” and has “upended peace and security around the world”, the US ambassador to the UN has a told a meeting of the security council. Linda Thomas-Greenfield called on Moscow to cease attacking Ukrainian food facilities and reenter the Black Sea grain deal, from which it withdrew on Monday. “Russia has zero legitimate reason to suspend its participation in this arrangement … It is using the Black Sea as blackmail.”
- Vladimir Putin has said Russia will use “all means at its disposal” to defend Belarus after Poland and other EU countries voiced concerns about the deployment of Russian paramilitaries near their borders. The Russian president claimed at a meeting of the Russian security council that Poland was seeking to invade Belarus, a Russian ally, after Warsaw moved troops nearer the border with Belarus following Minsk’s commencement of exercises with Wagner trainers.
- Russia has arrested Igor Girkin, who was convicted by a Dutch court over the shooting down of MH17, on extremism charges, probably fuelled by his criticism of the Russian war effort in Ukraine. Girkin is a former battlefield commander of Moscow’s proxy forces in eastern Ukraine.
- Russia’s navy carried out a live fire “exercise” in the north-west Black Sea, Moscow’s defence ministry said, days after the Kremlin said it would consider ships travelling to Ukraine through the waterway to be potential military targets. The Black Sea Fleet “carried out live firing of anti-ship cruise missiles at the target ship in the combat training range in the north-western part of the Black Sea”, Russia’s defence ministry said in a statement on Telegram.
- The Ukrainian president condemned a Russian artillery attack he said killed two children and damaged a school in the Donetsk region. Volodymyr Zelenskiy said a cultural centre and residential buildings were also damaged in the attack on Druzhba village.
- An employee of a cultural centre had been found dead after Russian shelling in the Chernihiv region of northern Ukraine, governor Vyacheslav Chaus said. In the Odesa region, governor Oleh Kiper said that out of 21 people wounded in Russian attacks over the past four days, four were still in hospital.
- The US plans to announce a new military aid package for Ukraine worth up to $400m – primarily comprised of artillery, air defence missiles and ground vehicles – as soon as Tuesday, three US officials have said. The US was not including cluster munitions in this package, two of them said.
- The number of ships looking to pick up grain cargoes from the Black Sea area fell 35% week on week amid growing uncertainty over whether commercial traffic could be hit as Russia continues to pound food facilities in Ukraine.
- Bulgaria said it had decided to send about 100 armoured personnel carriers to Ukraine in the Balkan country’s first shipment of heavy equipment to Kyiv. Bulgaria has so far sent only one military aid package to Kyiv, containing mostly flak jackets and helmets, but a pro-EU government took office last month.

Ukraine to receive $244 million for humanitarian demining, according to Ukraine's Minister of Economy Yulia Svyrydenko The funds will be allocated by foreign donors.
Frontline report: Ukrainian forces breach Russian defenses in Bakhmut sector, forcing Russians to abandon Andriivka, crucial Russia's logistical hub near Bakhmut.
“The arguments against Ukraine using cluster munitions betray a naivety, if not a disingenuousness, about the hard truths of military history,” writes Dr. Nathan M. Greenfield.

Air Force: Ukraine downs 36 Russian missiles Ukrainian forces shot down 33 Kh-101/Kh-555 and three Kalibr cruise missiles launched against Ukraine on July 26, the Air Force reported.
At around 5 p.m., Russian forces fired 36 Kh-101/Kh-555 cruise missiles from eight Tu-95 bombers from the direction of the Caspian Sea, the Air Force said, adding that Ukraine managed to destroy 33 of them.
A combined Russian cruise and ballistic missile attack targeted the military airfield in Starokostiantyniv, hosting Su-24M tactical bombers that launch UK-donated Storm Shadow missiles. It is yet unclear if all were shot down.
It turned out that Russia has been planning this attack for a very long time. In a propaganda story filmed in 2020 at the training of the Russian missile forces, a training map was recorded. It was Starokostiantyniv.
White House: Ukrainian pilots to receive F-16 training in Denmark, Romania. Ukrainian pilots are going to receive training on F-16 fighter jets in Denmark and Romania, U.S. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said on July 26.
However, the official noted that other details of the training scheme are not yet finalized. "The dates, the locations, the length of the syllabus, all of that is still being worked out," Kirby said at a press conference.
