Overnight attacks on Kyiv and Dnipro caused damage to several well-known cultural and civilian sites. Among the affected locations were the Assumption Cathedral of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a Nova Poshta terminal, the House of Organ and Chamber Music in Dnipro, and the Dovzhenko Film Studio. Footage from the aftermath shows damaged buildings, shattered facades, and debris following another night of large-scale strikes on Ukrainian cities.

Footage released from the southern direction shows strikes along the Nova Kakhovka - Melitopol highway during operations reportedly carried out by the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense. The video captures attacks against moving and stationary targets on one of the key logistics routes used across occupied territories in southern Ukraine. Drone operations targeting transport corridors and supply routes continue to play a major role in disrupting military movement and rear-area logistics.

New footage released from China shows live-fire training exercises involving 300mm PHL-03 multiple launch rocket systems. The drills included coordinated rocket launches from several launch vehicles during field exercises conducted by Chinese military units. The PHL-03 is a long-range MLRS platform based on the Soviet Smerch design and is capable of delivering heavy rocket salvos against area targets. The released material captures launch sequences, firing positions, and maneuver operations during the training activity.

Overnight drone strikes reportedly targeted bridges and crossing infrastructure near Chonhar during a combined attack operation. According to preliminary reports, the strikes damaged reserve crossings and destroyed a truck parking area located near the route. Additional impacts were reported at the “Dzhankoi” checkpoint in occupied Crimea. Footage and local reports from the area showed fires and damage around transport and logistics infrastructure connected to routes between occupied Crimea and southern Ukraine.

Footage from the Pokrovsk direction in Donetsk Oblast shows Ukrainian kamikaze drones of various types targeting Russian personnel and positions in and around the city. According to released information, 67 Russian soldiers were killed during the documented strikes. The video includes attacks carried out by FPV drone operators from the “Alpha” Special Operations Center of the Security Service of Ukraine. Officials stated that over the past week alone, operators of the unit reportedly eliminated around 2,000 Russian troops during drone operations along different sectors of the frontline.

Archival combat footage filmed in 2016 near Aleppo shows an assault on a Syrian military base from the perspective of fighters from Jabhat Fateh al-Sham. The video captures close-quarters fighting inside and around the position during the battle. At one moment in the footage, a Syrian Arab Army soldier is shot at close range after apparently mistaking an opposing fighter for a fellow serviceman during the chaotic engagement. The material documents the intensity of urban and base combat that characterized parts of the Syrian conflict during that period.

Overnight strikes across Kharkiv Oblast caused multiple civilian casualties in both Kharkiv and Chuhuiv. In Kharkiv, at least 15 people were injured, including three children - an 11-year-old girl, a 16-year-old girl, and a one-year-old boy. In Chuhuiv, missile strikes reportedly killed at least three people, among them a 22-year-old pregnant woman. Six more people were injured in the attack. Emergency services and rescue crews continued working at the impact sites through the night and morning hours.

Ukrainian Special Operations Forces reported a series of overnight drone strikes against fuel infrastructure in occupied Crimea on June 7. Targets included the “Semykolodezianska” oil depot near the settlement of Yedy-Kuyu, also known by Russian authorities as Lenine, as well as a large marine oil terminal in Feodosia. According to released information, the depot was used for storing and transporting fuel products including diesel, fuel oil, and bitumen for Russian military logistics across occupied territories. The Feodosia terminal reportedly serves as a key hub for transferring petroleum products from rail tankers to sea vessels and contains several large-capacity fuel reservoirs. Both facilities are located more than 200 kilometers from the frontline and play a role in supplying fuel infrastructure across occupied Crimea.

Footage circulating online shows a Ukrainian Leopard 1A5 tank sustaining FPV drone strikes while remaining operational. According to preliminary analysis, additional protective modifications on the vehicle helped prevent critical damage. In one episode, metal anti-drone bars caused the incoming drone to detonate away from the hull, redirecting the shaped-charge blast away from the tank itself. Another clip shows flames on the rear exterior section of the vehicle, though there are no visible signs of an internal fire or ammunition detonation. Based on the footage, claims about the complete destruction of the tank have not been confirmed.

Rare combat footage shows operators of the BULAVA unit from the 3rd Mechanized Battalion of the Bohdan Khmelnytskyi Operational Brigade using a modified “Queen of Hornets” drone equipped with a grenade launcher. According to the unit, the drone was used to strike a building where opposing forces were sheltering. The video captures the moment the airborne system approaches the structure and fires the mounted weapon during the operation. Such configurations remain relatively uncommon and reflect ongoing experimentation with drone-mounted infantry weapons on the battlefield.
