On August 3, according to sources from the Deep State, which is affiliated with the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense's Intelligence Directorate (GUR), Russian forces controlled 564 square kilometers of territory in July 2025, an increase of 12 square kilometers compared to June.
This data also exceeds all months of 2024 except November, when Russian forces controlled 730 square kilometers of territory.
Deep State specifically analyzed the efficiency of Russian military raids - by comparing the ratio of attack attempts on various fronts to the area of territory controlled.
In the direction of Novopavlivka (Dnipropetrovsk region), the number of attacks accounted for only 12% of the total, but the area of territory controlled accounted for 34% of the total territory controlled in July.
The attacks in the direction of Krasnoarmeysk and Sumy were more frequent, accounting for 35% and 11% of all attack attempts, respectively.
