Evening news wrap: Putin condemns US strikes on Iran; bomb blast at Nadia during vote counting of Kaliganj bypoll; and more
Monday, 23 June 2025 () Amid escalating tensions, Russian President Putin condemned US strikes on Iran, as Israel bombed Iranian military sites, including Evin Prison. In India, a bomb blast during Kaliganj bypoll counting tragically killed a child, prompting a swift response from CM Mamata Banerjee. The NIA made arrests linked to the Pahalgam terror attack.
In a high-stakes diplomatic turn, Russia has declared its unwavering support for Iran amid rising U.S.-Israel hostilities. Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated, “Everything will depend on what Iran needs,” emphasizing Russia’s readiness to act accordingly. Following a crucial meeting between Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and President Putin, Moscow slammed the Western aggression as baseless. Putin called the attacks “unprovoked” and offered mediation and strategic backing to Tehran. The growing Russia-Iran axis could shift power dynamics in the Middle East. What happens next depends solely on Iran's decision.

Amid the escalating U.S.–Israeli airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear and military sites, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi made an unannounced trip to Moscow to meet President Vladimir Putin. In a blunt statement, Putin condemned the attacks, calling them “aggression with no basis or justification.” The meeting signals a tightening Tehran-Moscow front and raises fresh questions about how the crisis could widen if Russia throws its weight behind Iran diplomatically—or even militarily.

In a major development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has openly sided with Iran, stating there's no evidence that Tehran is pursuing nuclear weapons. Citing both Russia's own findings and the IAEA's assessment, Putin declared Israel had been told this repeatedly. Meanwhile, China has urged Israel not to abuse its military power, signaling growing international resistance to further escalation. IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi confirmed there's no indication of weaponisation. These mounting global voices are expected to complicate Trump's path if he plans a direct US strike on Iran amid rising conflict.
