Ukrainian forces carried out a series of coordinated long-range strikes against key russian military and industrial facilities during the night of July 7, targeting defense manufacturing, fuel infrastructure, transport routes, and supply depots supporting Moscow's war effort. According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, one of the primary targets was Kremniy EL JSC Group in Bryansk. The company is among russia's leading microelectronics manufacturers, producing integrated circuits, power semiconductors, and other electronic components used in military command-and-control systems, communications equipment, electronic warfare assets, and various weapons systems. The full extent of the damage is still being assessed.

Ukrainian officials reported four explosions near the facility. The plant is a critical element of russia's defense-industrial base, manufacturing propellants, explosives, and rocket fuel components used in the production of missiles and ammunition employed in attacks against Ukraine. The operation also struck the fuel storage facilities at Belgorod Air Base, aiming to disrupt aviation support and military logistics. In temporarily occupied Crimea, Ukrainian forces targeted two railway bridges near the settlements of Rozdolne and Ichki. These crossings are used by russian forces to transport personnel, weapons, ammunition, and other military supplies between temporarily occupied territories and frontline units, making them important logistical nodes. The strikes continued in Donetsk region, where Ukrainian forces hit military logistics warehouses in the areas of Volnovakha and Yasynuvata. Such facilities are typically used to store equipment, ammunition, and other supplies before they are distributed to combat units operating along the front.
