Putin defies Trump with second nuclear weapons test in days

Russia has carried out a new test of a nuclear-capable underwater drone, President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday, marking the country’s second nuclear weapons test within days despite warnings from US President Donald Trump. During a visit to a military hospital treating soldiers wounded in Ukraine, Putin said the test involved the “Poseidon” unmanned underwater vehicle, which is equipped with a nuclear power unit. He claimed the drone torpedo could travel faster than any submarine and was impossible to intercept. “There is no way to intercept this system,” Putin said, adding that Poseidon can reach any continent and dive deeper than existing underwater weapons. According to Russia’s state news agency TASS, the drone can operate at depths greater than one kilometre and travel at speeds of up to 70 knots while remaining undetectable. It can also carry a nuclear warhead […]

Russian Strike on Ukraine Train Station Wounds 30, Says Zelensky

A Russian drone strike on a railway station in northeastern Ukraine has wounded at least 30 people, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky. The attack hit the Shostka station in the Sumy region, an area close to the Russian border. Zelensky condemned the strike as "savage," emphasizing that the target was clearly a civilian facility. A video from the scene showed a train carriage on fire, with significant damage from the explosion. In a separate wave of overnight attacks, Russian strikes also cut off power to approximately 50,000 households in the northern Chernihiv region. Meanwhile, Ukraine's military claimed it struck a major oil refinery in Russia's Leningrad region. This is part of Kyiv's intensified campaign of long-range drone attacks on Russian energy infrastructure, which it describes as a justified response to Moscow's ongoing assaults on Ukrainian cities and its power grid.

UN slams ‘systematic’ Russian torture of Ukraine civilians

The United Nations has accused Russia of subjecting civilians in occupied Ukrainian territories to torture, including sexual violence, in what it described as a “widespread and systematic” campaign. In a damning report released Tuesday, the UN rights office said that since Moscow’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, Russian authorities have carried out consistent patterns of serious violations of international law against civilian detainees. Investigators interviewed 216 civilians who had been released from detention in Russian-controlled areas since June 2023. Alarmingly, 92% reported torture or ill-treatment, providing consistent and detailed accounts of abuse. Methods described included: Severe beatings with batons and sticks Electric shocks applied to different body parts Mock executions and other forms of psychological abuse UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk condemned the findings, saying: “People have been arbitrarily picked off the streets in occupied territory, charged […]

Trump: Putin has ‘let me down’ as UK state visit concludes

US President Donald Trump wrapped up his historic second UK state visit on Thursday with blunt words for Russian leader Vladimir Putin, saying he had “really let me down” over the war in Ukraine. Speaking alongside Prime Minister Keir Starmer at Chequers, Trump revealed he had expected the Ukraine conflict to be the “easiest” to resolve because of his personal ties with Putin. “He’s really let me down,” Trump said. “If the price of oil comes down, Putin’s going to drop out of that war. Europe must stop buying Russian oil.” The two leaders discussed a range of issues, including Ukraine, Gaza, trade, migration, and technology. ‘Unbreakable bond’ and tech deal Earlier in the day, Trump hailed America’s “unbreakable bond” with Britain as both countries signed a landmark tech deal spanning artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and nuclear energy. The deal […]

Trump: NATO Must Stop Buying Russian Oil Before US Sanctions

US President Donald Trump has said he is ready to impose sweeping sanctions on Russia — but only if all NATO allies first halt Russian oil purchases and implement their own sanctions. In a post on Truth Social Saturday, which he described as an open letter to NATO and the world, Trump also urged the alliance to consider tariffs of 50–100% on China, arguing such measures would help end Russia’s war in Ukraine. “I am ready to do major Sanctions on Russia when all NATO Nations have agreed, and started, to do the same thing, and when all NATO Nations STOP BUYING OIL FROM RUSSIA,” Trump wrote. He branded NATO nations’ continued purchases of Russian oil “shocking,” saying it undermined their leverage over Moscow. Trump, who met Russian President Vladimir Putin last month at a summit in Alaska, insisted he […]

Trump Threatens New Sanctions After Russia’s Biggest Ukraine Attack

US President Donald Trump has threatened to impose fresh sanctions on Russia after Moscow launched its largest-ever aerial barrage on Ukraine, killing at least four people and setting government offices in Kyiv ablaze. The overnight assault, which Ukraine’s air force said involved 810 drones and 13 missiles, marked the most intense wave of strikes since the war began more than three years ago. Speaking to reporters on Sunday, Trump said he was “not happy with the whole situation” and was prepared to move forward on tougher sanctions against Moscow. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed the prospect of stronger US measures, stressing: “We are counting on a strong response from America. That is what is needed.” Kyiv Government HQ Hit For the first time since the conflict began, a strike hit the sprawling government complex housing Ukraine’s cabinet of ministers. Flames […]

Putin Warns Western Troops in Ukraine Will Be “Legitimate Targets”

Sometimes it is not the words that make the strongest impression, but the reaction. In the Russian Far East, Vladimir Putin issued a stark warning to the West: do not send troops not even peacekeepers — to Ukraine. “If some troops appear there,” Putin declared, “especially now while the fighting’s going on, we proceed from the premise that these will be legitimate targets for destruction.” The audience at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok erupted in applause, a chilling endorsement from Russian officials and business leaders who welcomed the threat against Western forces. This reaction came just a day after Ukraine’s allies, the so-called Coalition of the Willing, pledged to establish a post-war “reassurance force” for Kyiv. Putin doubled down on his conditions for talks, saying he would meet Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky only in Moscow. “The best place for […]

Zelensky to Press Slovak PM on Russian Oil Imports

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he will raise the issue of Russian oil supplies to Europe during a meeting with Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico on Friday. Fico, who has been openly critical of Zelensky and recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin in China, is expected to arrive in the western Ukrainian city of Uzhgorod later in the day. The European Union banned most Russian oil imports after Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022. However, Slovakia and Hungary received exemptions to allow time to secure alternative supplies. This exemption has fueled tensions with Kyiv, which has long opposed the Druzhba pipeline carrying Russian oil to both countries. “America wants to seriously cut Russia’s income from energy exports — and that is the right path,” Zelensky said in a video address to an economic forum in Italy. “We will also discuss […]

Putin Vows to Target Western Troops if Sent to Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that any Western forces deployed to Ukraine would be considered “legitimate targets” for Russia’s military. His comments came Friday at an economic forum in Vladivostok, a day after Kyiv’s allies announced plans to send troops as part of a potential peace agreement. On Thursday, 26 countries led by France and Britain pledged to join a “reassurance force” on land, at sea, and in the air to monitor any eventual peace deal. The war, which began in February 2022, has already claimed tens of thousands of lives, displaced millions, and devastated much of Ukraine’s east and south. “If some troops appear there, especially now during the fighting, we proceed from the premise that they will be legitimate targets,” Putin said, insisting that foreign deployments would not foster long-term peace. He also blamed Ukraine’s growing military […]

Western Allies Vow Troop Deployment to Ukraine After Ceasefire Deal

French President Emmanuel Macron announced that 26 Western allies have formally committed to deploying troops “by land, sea, or air” to Ukraine once a ceasefire deal is reached. The pledge followed a Paris summit of 35 countries dubbed the Coalition of the Willing. Macron accused Russia of deliberately stalling peace talks to gain more territory. Hopes for a Ukraine-Russia peace summit dimmed after Vladimir Putin met Donald Trump in Alaska last month. Trump has since spoken with Western allies and is expected to finalize US support soon, though he criticized EU states still purchasing Russian oil, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said. The EU aims to end Russian oil and gas imports by 2027, but Hungary and Slovakia remain among the bloc’s biggest buyers. While Washington has ruled out sending ground troops, Trump has hinted at possible air support, which could […]
