Ukraine’s BIGGEST Attack On Russia? Nearly 100 Drones Cripple Airports And Railways Across Russia

In one of the largest overnight drone barrages, Russia claims its air defense forces intercepted 99 drones targeting key cities and infrastructure across western Russia. Airports in St. Petersburg, Kaluga, and Volgograd were paralyzed, with 70+ flights delayed. Train services in Volgograd faced hours-long halts after drone debris damaged railway power lines. Debris fell in residential and industrial areas, reportedly injuring at least one person in Leningrad Oblast. The Russian Defense Ministry accused Ukraine of orchestrating the strikes, with Kyiv yet to issue a statement. Targeted regions included Bryansk, Smolensk, Kaluga, Volgograd, Rostov, and even occupied Crimea and Moscow. While Russia continues its aggressive strikes on Ukraine, this retaliation suggests an expanding and unpredictable aerial conflict zone. The Kyiv Independent couldn’t verify the claims independently. This is a rapidly developing story. #Russia #DroneAttack #UkraineWar #Moscow #PulkovoAirport #Volgograd #RailDisruption #Airstrike #Kaluga #Bryansk #Kyiv #StPetersburg #DroneWarfare #RussiaUkraineConflict #99Drones #RussiaStrikes #BreakingNews #DroneInterception #Putin #UkraineResponse

Russia’s REVENGE Move: Ukraine’s 'LELEKA' Drone Captured, Zelensky’s ‘Drone Secrets’in Russian Hands

Russian forces have reportedly captured an intact Ukrainian ‘Leleka’ drone in Zaporizhzhya after forcing it to land with electronic warfare systems. The drone, a critical part of Ukraine’s UAV and electronic warfare arsenal, may now be dissected by Russia to gain strategic advantages. Meanwhile, Ukraine accuses Moscow of abducting children from occupied territories, indoctrinating them, and forcing them to fight against their homeland. As tensions escalate, the U.S. slammed China at the UN for allegedly aiding Russia, sparking another diplomatic clash. Peace remains distant as the war grinds on. #RussiaUkraineWar #LelekaDrone #Ukraine #Russia #DroneWarfare #ElectronicWarfare #WarNews #Zaporizhzhya #UAV #Kyiv #Moscow #ChildSoldiers #WarCrimes #UN #China #USChinaTensions #Geopolitics #BattlefieldTech #UkraineConflict #CapturedDrone #MilitaryIntel #DroneCapture #UkraineWarUpdate #RussiaVsUkraine #Frontline #RussiaAccused #Zelensky #AndriyYermak #RussiaChinaAlliance #GlobalConflict #PeaceDealNow Also Read India Indicates Conditional Approach to Reviving Russia-India-China RIC Framework :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-non-committal-on-revival-of-ric-framework-011-7804519.html?ref=DMDesc Can You Hit Moscow?

Kremlin’s Most SHOCKING Move Yet? Backs France’s Recognition of Palestine |Defies Trump & Netanyahu

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron’s bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September — making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestine’s 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macron’s decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a “reward for terror” and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it “reckless.” Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it “historic.” Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition. #Russia #Palestine #Israel #France #Macron #UN #TwoStateSolution #MiddleEastConflict #Kremlin #PalestinianStatehood #GazaWar #Netanyahu #MarcoRubio #USIsraelTensions #UNRecognition #WorldNews #GlobalDiplomacy #EastJerusalem #WestBank #PalestineRecognition

‘Putin-Zelensky Face-Off…’ Trump’s BIG Reveal On Ukraine War SHOCKS Kremlin | Kremlin Rejects…

In a bombshell claim, U.S. President Donald Trump declared that a face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky “is going to happen,” despite the Kremlin drawing a red line. Russia insists such a summit should only occur to finalize a peace deal — not as part of ongoing negotiations. Trump, who has taken a hard stance on pushing peace since taking office in January, recently threatened 100% secondary tariffs on Russia’s trading partners if no resolution is reached within 50 days. Meanwhile, Moscow demands Ukraine lift martial law, recognize territorial losses, and hold overdue elections. The Kremlin remains skeptical about Zelensky’s legitimacy post his expired term. While Kyiv has repeatedly pushed for a summit, Moscow says a meeting is only possible once substantial progress has been made. As tensions rise, Trump’s bold assertion adds drama to the already fragile diplomatic theatre unfolding between Russia and Ukraine. #Trump #PutinZelensky #RussiaUkraineWar #ZelenskyPutinMeeting #Kremlin #TrumpPeaceDeal #UkraineCrisis #RussiaDemands #MartialLaw #UkraineElections #TrumpTariffs #PeaceTalks #KremlinRejects #Geopolitics #UkraineConflict #RussiaUkraineSummit #TrumpThreat #ZelenskyLegitimacy #UkraineRussiaTensions #WorldNews

Zelensky Fails As Kremlin Rejects One-On-One Meeting With Putin | Trump’s Sanction Deadline Nears

In a major setback for peace in Eastern Europe, the Kremlin has poured cold water on any hopes of a Zelensky–Putin summit in the next 30 days. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declared the meeting “unlikely,” citing irreconcilable differences between Ukraine and Russia’s draft proposals. This comes amid growing U.S. pressure, with President Donald Trump threatening sweeping 100% secondary tariffs on Russia if a peace deal isn't reached by the looming 50-day deadline. While Zelensky has repeatedly offered to meet Putin face-to-face, Moscow continues to dodge direct engagement. Instead, Russia is sticking to a rigid draft memorandum first introduced in Turkey and refuses to consider Ukraine’s summit request before August-end. Trump, visibly frustrated, warned that the lack of progress could trigger severe economic consequences. With time running out and no summit in sight, the chances of diplomacy are fading fast. #ZelenskyPutin #UkraineRussia #Kremlin #Putin #Zelensky #TrumpSanctions #PeaceTalks #RussiaUkraineWar #USRussia #UkraineCrisis #TrumpPutin #RussiaSanctions #KremlinStatement #DiplomaticDeadlock #BreakingNews #UkraineNews #EasternEurope #RussiaVsUkraine #Geopolitics #TrumpUltimatum ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.124~

BREAKING: Trump’s 10-Day Deadline to Putin |Russia MOCKS U.S Secondary Tariff Threat For Ceasefire

Former President Trump has issued a stark warning to Russia: agree to a Ukraine ceasefire within 10 days or face sweeping new sanctions. He hinted at harsh secondary sanctions and tariffs targeting Russia’s already struggling economy. Despite the threat, Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov mocked the move, claiming Moscow isn’t worried. Analysts say sanctions could slash Russia’s GDP by another 3–5% annually and hit energy exports hard. As the U.S. raises pressure, the question remains—will Putin yield, or is Trump making empty threats? #Trump #Russia #Sanctions #UkraineWar #USRussiaTensions #Putin #Ceasefire #Geopolitics #Tariffs #GlobalEconomy #Lavrov #SecondarySanctions #DebtCrisis #RussiaEconomy #BreakingNews #RTNews #EnergyCrisis #ShadowFleet #TradeWar #TrumpThreat #ForeignPolicy #EconomicSanctions #G7Pressure #China #India #ExportCuts #TrumpVsRussia #UkraineConflict #USPolitics #RussiaNews #TrumpSpeech Also Read Trump Imposes 10- To 12-Day Deadline For Russia To Cease Military Actions In Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-sets-new-deadline-for-russia-in-ukraine-conflict-011-7813541.html?ref=DMDesc Trump's Ambition as a Global Peacemaker Faces Challenges Amid Gaza Ceasefire Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-global-peacemaker-gaza-ceasefire-challenges-011-7810943.html?ref=DMDesc India Indicates Conditional Approach to Reviving Russia-India-China RIC Framework :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-non-committal-on-revival-of-ric-framework-011-7804519.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~

"Trump Barks But Doesn’t Bite," Says Expert On U.S Secondary Tariffs On Russia | "U.S Won’t Dare…"

Despite bold rhetoric, President Trump is unlikely to follow through on secondary tariffs targeting Russian trade partners. Speaking in the UK, Trump extended his tariff deadline again, repeating a familiar pattern of threats with little enforcement. Russian markets rose following his speech, reflecting global skepticism. Experts say enforcing tariffs on nations like China or India could backfire, straining diplomatic ties and fueling inflation at home. As Putin vows to continue the Ukraine war, Trump’s tactics seem more bark than bite—aimed at leverage, not real economic penalties. #Trump #TariffThreats #Russia #Putin #TradeWar #USPolitics #Geopolitics #SecondaryTariffs #TrumpVsPutin #GlobalMarkets #ChinaTrade #India #Brazil #OilTrade #RussiaUkraine #USChina #TrumpPolicy #TariffTalks #StockMarket #Inflation #Moscow #TrumpSpeech #ForeignPolicy #TradeNews #BluffPolitics #UkraineWar #EconomicStrategy #TariffWatch #GlobalTensions #TrumpAbroad #DiplomacyFail ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.194~

Russia to UNLEASH the ‘Posokh’ Laser Weapon System on Ukraine | Capable of ‘Frying’ Drones upto 2km

Russia has unveiled the ‘Posokh,’ a portable, ytterbium-based laser air defense system capable of disabling Ukrainian drones within a 2 km range using invisible laser beams. The announcement follows successful tests and comes as Russia escalates airstrikes on Ukraine. On July 28, a drone and missile barrage hit Kyiv, injuring eight civilians, including a child. The Darnytskyi district was among the hardest hit. With 324 drones launched overnight, Ukraine’s air defenses are under mounting pressure amid ongoing conflict. #RussiaUkraineWar #LaserWeapons #PosokhSystem #DroneWarfare #RussiaMilitary #UkraineConflict #KyivUnderAttack #MilitaryTech #Putin #Zelensky #RussiaUkraineWar #LaserDefense #YtterbiumLaser #Darnytskyi #AirStrike #PutinWarMachine #UkrainianCivilians #RussianWeapons #KyivNews #WarUpdate #CiviliansHit #UkraineWarNews #Starokostyantyniv #AirBaseTargeted #Klitschko #DroneBarrage #TechInWarfare #LaserVsDrones #UkraineCrisis #MilitaryInnovation #InvisibleLaser #ConflictEscalation #RussiaStrikes ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.125~

WW3 WARNING: Kim Warns U.S of 'Grave Consequences' If Pressured Over Nukes |Putin Backs North Korea

North Korea is openly warning the U.S. to recognize it as a nuclear power or abandon hopes of future diplomacy. Backed by Russia, Pyongyang says denuclearization is off the table and that Washington’s expectations are outdated. Kim Jong Un’s sister mocked U.S. efforts and insisted the “2025 reality” demands a new approach. Russia’s Foreign Minister Lavrov supported North Korea’s stance, citing self-defense. With alliances forming and rhetoric intensifying, the DPRK declares its nuclear status non-negotiable—placing future talks in deep uncertainty. #Russia #NorthKorea #Lavrov #NuclearWeapons #Geopolitics #USRussiaTensions #NorthKoreaNews #RussiaUkraineWar #KimJongUn #RussiaNorthKorea #MilitaryAlliance #NuclearThreat #EastAsiaCrisis #SecurityPact #USJapanSouthKorea #Pyongyang #ChoeSonHui #Wonsan #Putin #WorldNews #GlobalSecurity #StrategicAlliance #UkraineWar #NuclearTensions #DefenseNews #GeopoliticalRisk #InternationalRelations #BreakingNews #USAsiaPolicy #RussiaNuclearSupport #IndoPacific Also Read Hawaii Tsunami Warning: Next Waves Could Reach Up to 10 Feet, Say Officials :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hawaii-tsunami-warning-next-waves-could-reach-up-to-10-feet-say-officials-011-7815551.html?ref=DMDesc India Tsunami Warning?

‘Europe Gone CRAZY’ Russian FM Lavrov's Harrowing Attack On EU Amid Sanction War

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov unleashed a scathing rebuke of European nations following the EU’s latest sanctions on Russia. Labeling Europe as “gone crazy,” Lavrov accused EU leaders of manufacturing fear and portraying Russia as an existential threat. His remarks come after the EU’s 18th sanctions package targeted Russia’s energy and banking sectors. In retaliation, Moscow imposed bans on EU officials, accusing them of undermining Russia’s sovereignty. Lavrov urged Europe to focus on its economic decline and deindustrialization instead. #Lavrov #RussiaEU #Sanctions #EuropeGoneCrazy #RussianForeignMinistry #EUvsRussia #BreakingNews #EnergySanctions #BankingSanctions #Geopolitics #MoscowRetaliation #EUForeignPolicy #Deindustrialisation #EconomicWar #UkraineCrisis #InternationalRelations #Putin #LavrovSpeech #RussiaSanctions #Blacklist #RussianResponse #EU18thSanctions #DiplomaticClash #GlobalPolitics #TradeWar Also Read India Indicates Conditional Approach to Reviving Russia-India-China RIC Framework :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-non-committal-on-revival-of-ric-framework-011-7804519.html?ref=DMDesc Can You Hit Moscow?

Who Are Russia’s New Allies? Russia STUNS West By Dumping Germany For Iran And North Korea

In a dramatic geopolitical shift, Russia has withdrawn from a long-standing military cooperation agreement with Germany, originally signed in 1996. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin's move follows a cascade of sanctions from Western allies and Germany’s support for Ukraine. Russia's Foreign Ministry labeled Berlin's stance as "openly hostile" and accused Germany of pursuing aggressive militaristic policies. The collapse of this bilateral framework underscores Moscow's pivot toward nations like North Korea, Iran, and China. In recent weeks, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un—who pledged unconditional support for Russia’s war—and Iranian officials during the BRICS summit. Meanwhile, President Putin hinted at retaliatory arming of regions to strike Western targets. As the West distances itself from Moscow, Russia deepens its ties with fellow sanctioned states, signaling a bold new strategic alignment. #RussiaGermany #RussiaIran #RussiaNorthKorea #Putin #Lavrov #GermanyWithdrawal #MilitaryPact #BRICS2025 #UkraineWar #NATO #RussiaSanctions #RussiaChina #KimJongUn #IranNuclear #Geopolitics #GlobalTensions #AxisOfSanctions #RussiaIsolation #MoscowNews #RussiaBreaking ~HT.178~ED.102~GR.124~

WW3 WARNING: Russia SLAMS NATO’s Indo-Pacific ‘Aggression’, Warns US Allies of “Far East Expansion”

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, attending the SCO summit in China, strongly criticized the United States and NATO for their growing involvement in the Indo-Pacific region. Lavrov argued that NATO allies seek to expand their influence into the Far East, undermining regional stability. In contrast, Russia, China, and like-minded nations advocate for an “open and free security architecture” for East Asia.

Russia MOCKS Trump’s ‘Ultimatum’ | Lavrov Laughs at 100% Tariffs & U.S.-EU Weapons Push for Ukraine

A fierce war of words has erupted between the United States and Russia after former US President Donald Trump threatened to impose "secondary tariffs" of up to 100% if Moscow does not end the war in Ukraine within 50 days. Trump, speaking at a White House press event, warned that he was "very unhappy" with the ongoing conflict and that severe economic consequences would follow. Responding to the threat, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov delivered a sharp and dismissive rebuke from China. Lavrov stated unequivocally, "We are not worried, it's not our job to worry," indicating that Russia is prepared to withstand any new sanctions. He further mocked Trump's timeline, pointing out the shifting deadlines from the US. "Now it's 50 days, it used to be 24 hours, also 100 days. We've been through that already," Lavrov commented, suggesting a lack of seriousness in the American threat. The defiant stance was echoed by Russian Deputy Minister Ryabkov, who asserted that "any attempts to make demands or ultimatums are unacceptable" to the Kremlin. This bold response comes even as the United States finalizes plans to supply more advanced weaponry to Ukraine, with funding provided by the European Union. Russia's confidence appears unshaken, escalating geopolitical tensions and leaving the world to wonder what Trump's next move will be in this high-stakes standoff. #Trump #Russia #UkraineWar #SergeiLavrov #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Geopolitics #USTariffs #OneindiaNews #USRussiaRelations Also Read Can You Hit Moscow?
