Putin’s Scare in The U.S? Zelensky Left Empty-Handed as Pentagon Denies Ukraine’s Missile Request
In a stunning turn of events, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s latest plea for advanced missile systems was rejected by the Pentagon, leaving Kiev empty-handed in its bid to counter Russia's ongoing military offensive.
Despite Zelensky’s urgent request for long-range missiles to boost Ukraine's defenses, U.S. defense officials have opted to prioritize established international buyers over Ukraine, signaling a potential shift in Washington's support strategy.
The denial comes as a major blow to Zelensky, who had banked on securing vital military aid to bolster his nation’s resistance against Russia.
Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has seized the moment to mock Zelensky’s failed attempt, casting doubt on Ukraine’s future prospects in the conflict and sending ripples across the geopolitical landscape.
Death toll in 'vile' Russian missile strike on Kyiv rises to 31, including children
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the strike "vile" and said it "demonstrates the need for increased pressure on Moscow and additional sanctions."

Kyiv is reeling after another brutal missile and drone strike hit the Shevchenkivskyi district, targeting a nine-story residential building and causing it to collapse. At least six people, including a young child, have been killed, and over 50 others injured, with casualty numbers expected to rise. Emergency responders are desperately working to rescue survivors trapped under the rubble. The attacks hit at least 27 locations across the city, with the Solomianskyi and Sviatoshynskyi districts suffering the heaviest damage.
Ukrainian President Zelenskyy condemns the ruthless strike, calling for international justice and urgent support. Meanwhile, U.S. President Trump’s hard deadline of August 8 approaches, threatening severe sanctions on Russia if peace talks fail. Western leaders accuse Putin of deliberately stalling efforts to prolong the war, as Kyiv faces escalating destruction and a worsening humanitarian crisis. Stay updated with live footage and exclusive reports from the heart of the conflict.

Western Gripen fighter jets — believed to be Swedish-made and NATO-linked — reportedly thundered through Thai airspace to carry out strikes on Cambodian military positions. The alleged aerial bombardment marks a dramatic new phase in the escalating Thailand-Cambodia conflict over the disputed Preah Vihear region. Unconfirmed reports suggest U.S. backing for Thailand’s military posture — raising questions about Donald Trump's growing global military footprint.
After igniting an inferno in the Middle East with Israel-Iran tensions, is Trump now fueling a second front in Southeast Asia? Meanwhile, Kremlin sources have gone quiet, and ASEAN is scrambling to contain what could spiral into a full-blown regional war. Macron has demanded de-escalation. Zelensky has called for urgent talks. But Trump? He’s reportedly “watching the situation closely.” Will this be another proxy war with global players lurking in the shadows?

Russian troops have reportedly stormed into Chasiv Yar after a grueling 16-month standoff, raising their flags over key positions in the strategically vital Ukrainian town. While Kremlin sources claim a breakthrough, Kyiv has denied the fall, stating that fierce resistance continues and the situation remains “fluid.” This town is critical for access to Sloviansk and Kramatorsk—major Ukrainian strongholds in Donetsk.

The Pentagon is facing yet another high-profile departure as Justin Fulcher, a senior advisor to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, is set to step down after only six months on the job. Fulcher is now the sixth senior official to leave the department since Hegseth's controversial appointment, raising serious questions about the stability and leadership within one of the world's most powerful military institutions. The news, first reported by CBS News as a firing, was quickly disputed by the Pentagon, with spokesman Sean Parnell calling the claim "false" and unfair to Fulcher.
This wave of resignations comes amid a turbulent tenure for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. He has been at the center of multiple scandals, most notably a major security breach involving a Signal chat group discussing sensitive military operations, such as strikes in Yemen. In an unprecedented move, Hegseth reportedly added an editor from The Atlantic to this top-secret chat, a scandal that sent shockwaves through the defense community.
Justin Fulcher himself was no stranger to conflict within the Pentagon's walls. He reportedly stormed out of a heated meeting with the Pentagon's DOGE team in April and later claimed the Pentagon Force Protection Agency was actively searching for him. This incident allegedly infuriated Hegseth, who then personally confronted DOGE team lead Yinon Weiss for targeting his advisor. Despite the drama, Fulcher's departure statement was diplomatic, calling his time working with the Pentagon's personnel "incredibly inspiring." This video breaks down the full story behind the chaos at the Pentagon.

Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth confirmed that the Defense Department’s cloud services were previously supported by China-based engineers, raising national security concerns. Microsoft admitted to using teams in China for technical assistance but assured that no China-based staff will be involved moving forward. ProPublica revealed that limited U.S. oversight left critical Pentagon systems vulnerable, with personnel lacking the expertise to manage them effectively. Amid growing tensions with Beijing, Microsoft has pledged stricter controls to secure DoD cloud services against potential foreign risks.

In a major shift, U.S. President Donald Trump has approved a fresh $300 million military aid package to Ukraine, reportedly including rare Patriot surface-to-air missiles and medium-range rockets. The decision follows a brief and controversial Pentagon pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a known skeptic of increased aid to Kiev.
Trump’s move marks the first use of his Presidential Drawdown Authority, allowing emergency arms transfers directly from U.S. stockpiles. While the Pentagon claimed the pause was a limited stockpile review, it had caused concern among European allies and Ukrainian officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio later clarified that most weapons shipments were never stopped. Trump, who has reopened ceasefire talks with Russia, acknowledged the high cost of Patriot systems but said Ukraine still needs them. The Kremlin has warned the continued weapons flow contradicts peace efforts and further complicates diplomacy.

In a dramatic turnaround, the Trump administration has resumed shipping weapons to Ukraine after a brief but controversial pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The move had caught even White House officials off guard and temporarily halted deliveries of key systems including Patriot missiles, GMLRS rockets, and 155 mm Howitzer rounds. Trump claimed no knowledge of the pause, stating he hadn’t given the order. Pentagon officials say the review was part of a broader stockpile assessment.
But amid growing pressure from both allies and U.S. lawmakers, shipments resumed quietly—now including precision-guided rockets and artillery shells. Trump cited Russia’s rising brutality and President Putin’s conduct as reasons for restoring deliveries. The weapons—especially the 155 mm rounds—are critical in Ukraine’s defense. With the largest drone attack yet launched by Russia, Trump’s decision underscores the escalating urgency of the war. Over $67 billion in U.S. military aid has been sent since 2022.

A shocking new report by CNN claims that US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered a pause on crucial weapons shipments to Ukraine without informing the White House. When questioned about the decision, President Donald Trump appeared to be unaware, denying responsibility by stating, “I don’t know, why don’t you tell me?” This unilateral action by the Pentagon chief has reportedly set off a major scramble within the administration, highlighting a severe breakdown in communication. The pause comes at a perilous moment for Kyiv, as Russia has intensified its missile attacks across Ukraine. Such a disruption in the supply of munitions could have devastating consequences on the battlefield. The lack of coordination was so profound that key figures like Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Envoy Keith Kellogg allegedly learned of the aid suspension from press reports, not from the Pentagon or Hegseth himself. Sources cited by CNN suggest that Hegseth's lack of a chief of staff or senior advisers has led to this poor interagency coordination.
In an attempt to control the narrative, the Pentagon stated the pause was for an assessment of US stockpiles, while the White House clarified that this review was never intended to halt the flow of aid. Following the backlash, President Trump reportedly ordered the resumption of some arms shipments, including Patriot missiles stationed in Poland. This entire incident raises serious questions about the chain of command, policy clarity, and the stability of US support for Ukraine.
