Why Crimea is so important to Russia and Ukraine

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

‘A VERY BIG MISTAKE’ | Trump BLASTS Obama, Trudeau For pushing Russia out of G-8

Donald Trump has sparked fresh controversy by claiming the Ukraine-Russia war wouldn’t have happened if Russia remained in the G-8. In a bold statement, Trump called Russia’s removal “a big mistake” and blamed former U.S. President Barack Obama and former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau for pushing Moscow out. He argued that sidelining Russia has only made global diplomacy harder. Trump's remarks reignite debate over Russia’s G-8 expulsion after Crimea’s annexation and its broader impact on global peace and Western alliances. #Trump #UkraineRussiaWar #G8 #Russia #TrumpStatement #BreakingNews #Obama #Trudeau #TrumpVsObama #Geopolitics #UkraineWar #RussiaInG8 #CrimeaCrisis #TrumpSpeech #WorldPolitics #G8Expulsion #TrumpBombshell #DiplomacyFail #TrumpOnRussia #GlobalSecurity #TrumpNews #WesternAlliances #Putin #Trump2024 #InternationalRelations Also Read Donald Trump Says Iran Will Not Win War, Should Push For Talk Before It's Too Late :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-says-iran-will-not-win-war-should-push-for-talk-before-its-too-late-4183539.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Supported Israel's Plan To Kill Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei: US Officials :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-supported-israels-plan-to-kill-iran-supreme-leader-ayatollah-ali-khamenei-us-offici-4182653.html?ref=DMDesc US To Impose Travel Restrictions On 36 Countries: Check List Here :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-to-impose-travel-restrictions-on-36-countries-check-list-here-4182641.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~

‘Kyiv Will Not Accept….’ Zelensky BLASTS Russia’s ‘Peace Memorandum’ | Russia-Ukraine War Latest

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has exposed Russia’s latest so-called “peace memorandum” as an outright ultimatum, stating Moscow demanded Ukraine recognize its occupation of Crimea and other regions, fully withdraw troops, and accept neutrality. The second round of Istanbul talks yielded humanitarian gains, like POW swaps, but no ceasefire. Zelensky vowed not to discuss sovereignty or concede territory. While Ukraine offered prisoner exchanges and EU/NATO alignment, Russia refused compromise. The U.S. remains frustrated with Moscow’s hardline stance amid ongoing war escalation. #Zelensky #RussiaUkraineWar #PeaceTalks #Putin #RussiaUltimatum #UkraineTerritories #Ceasefire #Crimea #Donetsk #Luhansk #Kherson #Zaporizhzhia #Kyiv #IstanbulTalks #RussianAggression #UkrainianSovereignty #EU #NATO #PrisonerSwap #Trump Also Read Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.html?ref=DMDesc This NATO Member Country Can Provide India Battle-Tested Unmanned Weapons, Tech :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/this-nato-member-country-can-provide-india-battle-tested-unmanned-weapons-tech-4175213.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~

Zelensky's Bridge Attack Doomed: Traffic RESUMES On Crimea Bridge After Ukrainian Underwater Blast

Ukraine claims responsibility for a massive underwater explosion targeting the Crimea (Kerch) Bridge, using over 1,100 kg of TNT-equivalent explosives. Officials say the blast damaged a key underwater support structure, yet hours later, traffic resumed on the bridge. Built by Russia in 2018, the bridge is vital for military supplies to occupied Crimea. Independent analysts confirmed the blast’s location but questioned its impact. This isn’t the first strike — but was it effective? The bridge reopened shortly after, leaving doubts about the success of Ukraine’s latest attack. #CrimeaBridge #KerchBridge #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraineConflict #BridgeBlast #UkraineStrike #MilitaryNews #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #Crimea #TNTBlast #Explosives #UkraineIntel #WarUpdates #CrimeaTarget #KerchTraffic #UkrainianForces #RussianSupplyLine #StrategicStrike #WarAnalysis #DefenseNews #BridgeAttack #UkraineDefense #CrimeaHit #MilitaryBridge #RussiaAnnexation #CrimeaSymbol #KerchBridgeBlast #RussiaVsUkraine #BridgeDamage
