Russia has created an online catalog to sell Ukrainian children

Acсording to the founder of Save Ukraine Mykola Kuleba, Russia has created a catalog of Ukrainian children for sale. The catalog contains photos, ages, genders, and eye and hair colors of the children. Most of them are Ukrainian citizens, and some are orphans due to the actions of the occupiers.

Ukrainian officials, including Dmytro Kuleba, have condemned the practice as child trafficking. The evidence is publicly available on official resources run by the occupying authorities. The Russian-controlled database labels the children as "orphans and children left without parental care" and allows users to filter results by age, eye color, hair color, and type of guardianship, including adoption or foster care.

Each child is presented with a photo and a brief profile that includes personality traits. Some are described as "obedient" or "calm," language that Ukrainian officials say dehumanizes the children.

Kuleba stated that the descriptions resemble a modern-day slave catalog and called for urgent international action. He said the database is part of an effort to "improve" the system amid a decline in demand for adoptions

76% of Ukrainians adamantly reject Russia's peace plan – survey

A recent poll conducted by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS) reveals that the vast majority of Ukrainians—76%—firmly reject the idea of a "peace plan" based on Russian terms. Only 17% of respondents say they might agree to Russia's demands, underscoring a nationwide consensus that the aggressor cannot dictate the conditions for peace.

The most acceptable option for Ukrainians is a joint peace plan developed by Europe and Ukraine. In contrast, a conditional U.S.-proposed plan remains controversial: while support for it has grown from 29% in May to 39% in August, 49% of respondents still find it categorically unacceptable—though this marks a decrease from 62% in May. Meanwhile, support for the European-Ukrainian plan has risen slightly to 54%, with rejection of it falling to 30%.

The poll outlined three hypothetical peace plans to respondents:

Russia’s Plan

Ukraine would drastically reduce its military, permanently abandon any NATO aspirations, and officially recognize all currently occupied territories—including Crimea, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson oblasts—as part of Russia. In exchange, Ukraine would be allowed to pursue EU membership, and Western sanctions on Russia would be lifted.

U.S. Plan

A coalition of European states (excluding the United States) would provide Ukraine with security guarantees. Russia would retain control over the occupied territories, and the U.S. would formally recognize Crimea as Russian territory. Ukraine would proceed toward EU membership, and sanctions on Russia would be lifted.

Europe and Ukraine’s Joint Plan

Ukraine would receive solid security guarantees from both Europe and the United States. Russia would continue to hold the occupied territories, but Ukraine and the international community would not officially recognize this occupation. Ukraine would continue moving toward EU membership, and U.S. sanctions against Russia would be gradually eased only after stable peace is established.

In all regions of Ukraine, support for any peace based on Russian conditions remains extremely low, demonstrating a united stance among Ukrainians against capitulating to the aggressor's terms.

Four people injured out due to a Russian attack on Dnipropetrovsk Oblast 

On the night of August 6–7, a Russian strike on the city of Dnipro left four people injured and caused extensive damage across the region. Fires broke out, and both homes and vehicles were destroyed or damaged in the attack, which also affected other areas of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
