Defence Secretary responds to death of Russian general
Ukraine has claimed it is behind a bomb attack that killed a senior Russian general in charge of nuclear protection forces in Moscow on Tuesday.
Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, who is chief of Russia’s Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Protection Troops, was killed outside a block of flats some 7km (4 miles) southeast of the Kremlin.
Defence Secretary John Healey said the general was a "bad man" with a proven record of "using chemical weapons against troops on the battlefield."

U.S Special Envoy Steve Witkoff recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin in a bid to persuade Russia for a ceasefire deal in Ukraine. This was the 4th such meeting in just over 2 months, but there seems to be no breakthrough yet as Putin remains firm recognition of Russia's control over Crimea and the four regions under Russian control since 2022. With peace talks stalling, could a Putin-Trump summit be the only path forward?

US President Donald Trump has claimed Ukraine could be “crushed very shortly” unless it agrees to peace talks with Russia. In an interview with The Atlantic, Trump said he’s trying to save Ukraine by pushing for negotiations, suggesting Moscow is open to a deal. He criticized Kiev’s stance, especially on Crimea, and hinted Zelensky was tougher to negotiate with than Putin. Meanwhile, Vice President Vance echoed similar concerns, and Secretary of State Rubio warned of the US abandoning talks if delays persist. Trump is also seeking a minerals agreement with Ukraine.

In a powerful statement at the UN, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative, Maria Zabolotskaya, condemned Western countries for their "double standards" in addressing the global refugee crisis. Highlighting the devastating impact of the Gaza conflict, she criticized the reluctance of Western nations to provide sufficient humanitarian aid to refugees, particularly those fleeing from war-torn regions like Syria, Afghanistan, and Sudan. Zabolotskaya also pointed out the hypocrisy in Western countries voicing concern over Ukrainian refugees while ignoring the plight of those seeking asylum in Russia. She called out the EU's failure to provide adequate support to refugees, especially those crossing the Mediterranean, and the deadly consequences of this inaction. With lives at stake and no accountability, the international community must confront the moral and legal crisis unfolding before our eyes.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to attend Russia's Victory Day Parade in Moscow on May 9, as confirmed by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov. This decision.. IndiaTimes
In this latest update, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov slams Ukraine for showing no sign of readiness to engage in direct negotiations with Russia. Despite Moscow’s openness to peace talks, Ukrainian President Zelensky maintains a strict ban on any negotiations with Vladimir Putin—a move he implemented in October 2022 to stop separatism and control backchannel talks. Peskov insists that Ukraine must act, especially in light of its legal ban on direct talks.
