I tried with a new post and still, not showing the messages from July 25th in the Archive. There must be a way to force the archiving of the messages from July 25th.

Looks like "hyperkitty" stopped archiving right after the CERT for the mailman3 website expired, How can I make the missing archives visible on the website? I see there "*pck" files in the/opt/mailman/mm/var/archives/hyperkitty/spool/ directory. The list archive does not show that last posting [of 25 July 2025.
It's been a while since I've looked closely at this, but if I'm wrong nothing disastrous will happen, you'll just have to wait a little longer.
The hyperkitty/spool directory is a staging area for the messages to be archived. As usual "spool" implies "work to be done", and HyperKitty (specifically the mailman_hyperkitty IArchiver implementation) considers all .pck files in the spool to be tasks in the queue. The assumption is that most sites will (a) rarely have trouble and (b) will be archiving frequently, so there is no polling done. Rather, when a message is scheduled to be archived, the archiver wakes up and archives everything in that directory.
So the messages should be added to the archive the next time a message arrives. Note that this is not list-specific: if there's a pending message for list A and a message for list B arrives, the archiver will process A and then B.
The easiest way to trigger this is to send a test message.
