On the eve of his Washington meeting with Donald Trump and European leaders, Volodymyr Zelensky condemned Russia for “demonstrative and cynical” strikes across Ukraine. Deadly attacks in Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, and Odesa killed civilians, including a toddler, and destroyed homes and energy facilities. Zelensky accused Vladimir Putin of deliberately escalating to sabotage peace efforts and pressure Ukraine. Calling for strong, NATO-style security guarantees, Zelensky urged world leaders not to reward Moscow’s aggression but to deliver “true security and dignified peace.”

Ahead of the Trump–Putin summit in Alaska, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected any withdrawal from Donbas, warning it would allow Russia to launch a “third war” in Ukraine. He insists ceding territory would expose cities like Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv to occupation. While Putin is expected to push for Ukrainian withdrawal, Zelensky seeks EU security guarantees and ongoing Western support. U.S. officials say Trump aims to eventually broker direct talks, but no ceasefire proposal so far assures Ukraine’s long-term safety.

Russia has launched powerful airstrikes across eastern Ukraine just minutes before President Volodymyr Zelensky’s high-stakes White House meeting with Donald Trump. Moscow’s Aerospace Forces struck temporary deployment zones of Ukrainian brigades near Mirnograd and Ivanpolye, using FAB-3000 and FAB-500 aerial bombs fitted with gliding and correction modules. The attack obliterated positions of Ukraine’s 15th National Guard Brigade and heavily damaged the 100th Separate Mechanised Brigade. The timing of the strikes sends a chilling message, intensifying tensions as Trump pushes Zelensky toward a controversial peace deal that could force Ukraine to cede territory. With European leaders watching closely, the simultaneous escalation on the battlefield and in Washington underscores the razor’s-edge stakes of the moment. Will Russia’s escalation corner Zelensky into concessions, or harden his resolve? The strikes set a dramatic backdrop for a summit that could shape the future of Ukraine, Russia, and the West.
