Russia claims that Ukraine tried to attack the Kerch Strait Bridge in Crimea with S-200 guided missiles on August 12. Russia’s Defence Ministry said Kyiv’s attempt to target the Crimea Bridge with S-200 rockets has been unsuccessful. Pro-Russian official Sergei Aksyonov said that anti-aircraft defences had intercepted and downed two rockets in the vicinity of the bridge. Shortly after the attack, Aksyonov said that the Russian air defences shot down another missile over the Kerch strait. Russia's foreign ministry strongly criticised Ukraine for what it called a "terrorist attack" on the Crimean Bridge and vowed retaliation. A Russian S-30 fighter jet crashed in the westernmost Kaliningrad Region on Aug. 12, killing the two pilots, Russia said. Ukraine's intelligence agency SBU said their team neutralised the Terminator or BMPT, utilising another T-80 main battle tank, in the Donetsk region. A Russian war blogger has accused his country's military officials of encouraging soldiers to exaggerate their successes in Ukraine. The blogger said Russian servicemen have been instructed to "report false successes on their missions to please their commanders”.

Russian-installed official Vladimir Rogov has said that Russia regained control of Urozhaine in the Luhansk oblast in an overnight counterattack.
