President Donald Trump has admitted that new U.S. sanctions on Russia might not have any effect on Vladimir Putin — but is moving ahead with them anyway. Trump slashed the peace window for a Ukraine deal from 50 days to just 10, warning of brutal economic penalties if Moscow doesn't comply. These include up to 100% tariffs and potential secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Russia.
While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the threats, saying Russia has developed “sanctions immunity,” Trump’s frustration is mounting. The president also announced that special envoy Steve Witkoff will soon travel to Russia following visits to Israel and Gaza. Trump’s acting UN envoy confirmed a ceasefire deadline: August 8. Despite over 10,000 sanctions already in place since the 2014 Ukraine crisis, Putin maintains the West has failed to break Russia’s economy. The standoff is reaching a boiling point.

In a notable development, an Indian diplomat, Suresh Kumar, engaged with Syrian ministers in Damascus, signaling India's initial formal interaction with Syria's.. IndiaTimes
As the Middle East teeters on the edge of wider conflict, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a high-stakes phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The Kremlin confirmed that Putin underscored Russia’s commitment to peaceful solutions amid escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. In a bold diplomatic move, Moscow offered to mediate stalled nuclear negotiations involving Tehran, positioning itself as a central figure in the crisis.
Notably, Putin warned against any actions that may compromise Syria’s sovereignty, stressing the need to respect the nation's territorial integrity and internal political stability. This conversation comes at a time when military strikes, political instability, and nuclear fears are threatening to ignite a broader regional war. With Syria caught in the crossfire and international alliances under strain, the Putin-Netanyahu call may signal a renewed effort to de-escalate before it’s too late.

Israel faces mounting global condemnation over its military campaign in Gaza, accused of using starvation tactics and blocking aid. Despite backlash, Prime Minister Netanyahu has doubled down, vowing to continue operations until Hamas is fully eliminated. With over 20,000 Hamas fighters reportedly still active and Israeli casualties rising, the war grinds on. Europe and human rights groups have urged Israel and the U.S. to halt the blockade, but Netanyahu, speaking from Ramon Air Base, insists on seeing through what he calls Israel's “war goals.” Gaza’s humanitarian crisis deepens.

CCTV footage from the Handala aid ship shows Israeli soldiers breaking cameras during a midnight raid in international waters. The Gaza-bound vessel, carrying baby formula, food, and medicine for starving civilians, was intercepted 40 nautical miles from Gaza. Israeli forces detained 21 international activists and journalists, seizing all aid cargo. This marks the second ship blocked in recent months, amid rising global outrage over Gaza’s worsening humanitarian crisis. Cameras and communications were cut before the vessel was escorted back to shore, deepening calls for accountability.
