Russia claims control of key Ukrainian city Kupiansk

Russia has announced that its troops have taken control of the frontline city of Kupiansk in northeastern Ukraine’s Kharkiv region. Leonid Sharov, head of Russia’s Zapad (West) military group, told state media that the city is now under the command of the Russian Sixth Army.​ Russian officials have repeatedly portrayed Kupiansk as a vital logistics and railway hub for Ukrainian operations in the northeast. Moscow argues that securing the city strengthens its defensive line and disrupts Ukrainian supply routes towards Kharkiv and other parts of the front.​ Ukraine has rejected earlier Russian declarations of full control over Kupiansk, insisting that its forces remain active in and around the city. Kyiv’s military authorities say Ukrainian troops are still engaging Russian units and have carried out counterattacks to retake ground in the area.​ Recent assessments by independent analysts suggest that the situation […]

Kremlin open to multiple Ukraine talks with US

The Kremlin has said Russia is ready to hold as many rounds of talks with the United States as necessary on the war in Ukraine following recent high-level contacts between the two countries.​ Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that no single meeting could solve all issues, but stressed that Moscow was prepared to continue discussions if Washington showed “political will” to seek a settlement.​ Peskov repeated Russia’s position that any negotiations must take account of what it calls “new realities on the ground”, a reference to Ukrainian territories claimed and occupied by Russian forces.​ He also argued that the involvement of the US and other Western states in supplying weapons to Kyiv was prolonging the conflict, while insisting that Moscow remained open to dialogue on security guarantees and broader stability in Europe.​ The comments come amid renewed diplomatic activity […]

NATO allies plan big new US arms buys for Ukraine

NATO allies have pledged to make major new purchases of United States-made weapons and equipment to strengthen Ukraine’s defences as the war with Russia continues.​ Defence ministers and senior officials from several member states signalled plans to sign fresh contracts for air defence systems, artillery, drones, and ammunition, saying Ukraine still urgently needs long-term military support.​ The new commitments are expected to run into billions of dollars and will focus on replenishing Ukraine’s stocks while also rebuilding allied arsenals that have been depleted by previous transfers to Kyiv.​ Officials said the purchases would be arranged through joint procurement schemes and direct national orders, with the aim of speeding up deliveries and ensuring greater coordination across the alliance.​ They argued that the extra firepower is essential to help Ukraine hold the front lines, protect cities from missile and drone attacks, and […]

US envoy to meet Putin over Ukraine war talks

A senior United States envoy is scheduled to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow for high‑level talks focused on efforts to end the war in Ukraine.​ According to US officials, the visit is part of renewed diplomatic contacts aimed at exploring conditions for a possible ceasefire and a broader political settlement, while reaffirming support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.​ The envoy is expected to raise issues such as security guarantees, withdrawal of Russian forces, prisoner exchanges, and protection of civilian infrastructure, alongside discussions on how any agreement could be monitored and enforced.​ Russian authorities have signalled that they are willing to listen to proposals but insist that any negotiations must reflect what they describe as “realities on the ground”, including territories currently under Russian control.​ Western allies are being briefed on the mission, and Washington has stressed that […]

Niger Puts Nationalised Uranium on Global Market

Niger’s military government has announced that uranium produced by Somair, a company it nationalised from French nuclear firm Orano in June, is now being offered on the international market. The move marks a new phase in the standoff between the junta, which seized power in 2023, and Orano, a group that is 90 percent owned by the French state and has mined uranium in Niger for decades.​ The decision was made public on state broadcaster Télé Sahel, quoting junta leader General Abdourahamane Tiani. He insisted Niger had the sovereign right to manage its natural resources and to sell them “to whoever wants to buy them” under normal market rules and in full independence.​ Russia has already signalled interest in Niger’s uranium, with Energy Minister Sergei Tsivilev saying in July that Moscow wanted to start mining operations in the country. Since […]

Dangote, Depots Cut Petrol Gantry Price to N840

Dangote Petroleum Refinery and several major depot operators have reduced the average gantry price of Premium Motor Spirit to N840 per litre, from N843 per litre. The adjustment follows a drop in global crude prices, with Brent crude trading at about 62 dollars per barrel over the weekend, easing refining and supply costs.​ Market data show that Dangote Refinery, AIPEC and NIPCO have all pegged their depot selling price at N840 per litre. Some others are slightly higher, with Rainoil at N844, Sigmund and Master Energy at N858 and Northwest at N850 per litre.​ Meanwhile, eight OPEC plus countries, including Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, the UAE, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, Algeria and Oman, met virtually on 30 November 2025 to review market conditions and the outlook for early 2026. They confirmed an earlier decision to pause planned production increases in January, February […]

Ukrainian Team Heads to Florida for High Stakes US Talks

Senior Ukrainian negotiators have arrived in Florida for key talks with US officials as Washington steps up efforts to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. The delegation will meet US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, special envoy Steve Witkoff and presidential adviser Jared Kushner on Sunday.​ The meetings will focus on a revised 19 point peace plan backed by US President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly said he wants the conflict to end quickly. The new outline replaces an earlier 28 point proposal that faced strong resistance in Kyiv and across Europe.​ Trump has signaled he could recognize Russian control over parts of Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk that are currently occupied by Moscow’s forces. This would leave Ukraine and its European partners to decide whether to keep supporting Ukraine’s defense or accept the new territorial reality.​ The Ukrainian team now includes […]

Over 600,000 left without power after Russian strikes hit Kyiv region

More than 600,000 people in the Kyiv region are without electricity after overnight Russian missile and drone strikes hit energy infrastructure, Ukrainian officials say. The latest barrage targeted power facilities around the capital, causing widespread outages and renewed disruption as winter sets in.​ Regional authorities said repair crews were working to restore supplies but warned that some districts could face prolonged cuts due to the scale of the damage. Images from affected areas showed darkened apartment blocks and residents relying on torches and generators as emergency teams assessed the impact.​ Ukraine’s air force reported intercepting several incoming missiles and drones, but acknowledged that some projectiles got through and struck critical infrastructure. The attack is part of a broader Russian campaign that has repeatedly targeted Ukraine’s power grid in an apparent attempt to weaken civilian resilience and pressure Kyiv’s leadership.​

Russia closes Polish consulate in Siberia in tit-for-tat move

Russia has ordered the closure of Poland’s consulate in the Siberian city of Irkutsk in a tit-for-tat response to a recent Polish move against a Russian mission. The Russian Foreign Ministry said the decision came after Warsaw withdrew consent for the Russian consulate in the eastern Polish city of Bialystok.​ Moscow accused Poland of continuing what it called a hostile and destructive policy against Russia. The ministry said the closure of the Irkutsk consulate was a forced response and signalled that further unfriendly steps from Poland would draw similar reactions.​ Relations between Russia and Poland have sharply deteriorated since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Poland is one of Kyiv’s strongest supporters in the European Union and NATO, supplying weapons, hosting refugees, and pushing for tougher sanctions on Moscow.​ In recent years, both countries have expelled each […]
