Russia UNLEASHES Drone Hell on Ukraine | Trump Rages As Zelensky Begs for Rescue | 1 Dead, 6 Injured

A horrifying Russian drone attack hit Ukraine’s Black Sea port city of Odesa early Saturday, igniting a towering apartment block, killing one resident and injuring six, including a child. The aerial assault, part of a broader overnight onslaught, saw over 300 drones and 30 missiles launched across 10 Ukrainian regions. Ukrainian President Zelensky described the assault as relentless and pleaded for urgent air defense support, as power outages and fires spread. The Odesa mayor confirmed over 20 drones targeted the city, setting homes ablaze and sending families fleeing. As the world watches, former U.S. President Donald Trump escalated his rhetoric against Russia, warning of harsher sanctions. With thousands already dead in the war, the latest strike highlights Ukraine’s desperation for international aid and a ramp-up in domestic defense production. Dramatic images show parents rescuing children wrapped in blankets—Ukraine burns while the world debates. #RussiaUkraineWar #OdesaAttack #DroneStrike #UkraineNews #Zelensky #TrumpOnRussia #UkraineCrisis #RussiaStrikesAgain #BlackSeaAttack #Putin #UkraineWar2025 #WarCrime #MissileAttack #UkrainianChildren #USRussiaTensions #AirDefenseUkraine #OdessaFire #UkraineUnderAttack #RussiaDroneAssault #EmergencyRescue Also Read India, China, Brazil Could Be Hit Hard For Trading With Russia: NATO Secretary Rutte :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-china-brazil-could-be-hit-hard-for-trading-with-russia-nato-secretary-rutte-7802537.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc 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 ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.103~

Stephen Colbert FIRED! Trump MOCKS Late-Night Host as CBS Cancels Anti-Trump 'Late Night Show'

Stephen Colbert’s Late Show is being canceled by CBS in May 2026, just days after he called Paramount’s $16M Trump settlement “a big fat bribe” to smooth DOJ approval for an $8B Skydance merger. Trump celebrated the cancellation on Truth Social, mocking Colbert’s “talent” despite the show leading late-night ratings with 2.4M viewers. CBS claims the move is financial, but critics argue it’s political pressure to appease Trump allies like Skydance buyer David Ellison. Analysts warn this signals growing politicization of corporate media decisions. #StephenColbert #TheLateShow #Colbert #IStandWithColbert #SaveTheLateShow #CancelColbert #Trump #CBS #Paramount #Censorship #FreedomOfSpeech #PressFreedom #ColbertFired #BoycottCBS #BoycottParamount #SkydanceMerger #CorporatePolitics #LateNight ~HT.318~GR.125~

‘Hegseth touted the cold war…’ China BLASTS U.S In Response To Pete Hegseth's Speech In Singapore

China has lashed out at U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth following his remarks at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, where he warned that China could imminently use military force against Taiwan.

China's foreign ministry dismissed the U.S. accusations as defamatory and asserted that only Washington deserved the label of a hegemonic power. The fiery exchange underscores growing regional tensions over Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific power balance. #China #PeteHegseth #TaiwanCrisis #IndoPacific #USChinaTensions #ShangriLaDialogue #AsiaPacific #ColdWarRhetoric #TaiwanConflict #USDefence #ChinaUS #TaiwanStrait #Geopolitics #CCP #MilitaryThreat #BlocConfrontation #WarOfWords #DefenceSpeech #BeijingVsWashington #AsiaSecurity ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.124~
