Germany has announced it will soon supply Ukraine with new long-range missile systems, but not the Taurus cruise missiles that Kyiv has long sought. Despite previous speculation, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius confirmed that Taurus missiles—capable of striking targets up to 500 km away—will not be sent. Instead, Germany is providing Patriot air defense systems purchased from the U.S. Chancellor Friedrich Merz emphasized that diplomatic avenues with Russia are "exhausted" and vowed to counter what he called a “criminal regime.”

On July 27, a passenger train derailed near the town of Riedlingen in south-western Germany, leaving three people dead and at least 41 injured. Authorities believe heavy rainfall caused a sewage shaft to overflow, triggering a landslide that led to the crash. Among the victims were the train’s driver and a staff member. With around 100 passengers on board and severe storms sweeping the region, questions are now being raised: Was this a natural disaster—or a preventable failure of infrastructure?

Slovenia has made history as the first EU country to impose a full ban on arms imports, exports, and transit to Israel amid the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Prime Minister Robert Golob boldly declared that responsible nations must act—even if it means stepping ahead of others to uphold international law. This move exposes the European Union’s failure to take concrete measures against Israel’s blockade and ongoing war crimes, which have killed over 60,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children. As Slovenia plans further sanctions, will other EU countries follow and challenge Israel’s brutal military campaign? Dive into this explosive shift in European policy and the mounting pressure on Israel’s government.

Russia has issued a sharp warning to Bulgaria after the Bulgarian Parliament labeled Moscow a “state sponsor of terrorism” and seized Russian property. The Kremlin condemned the move as a product of EU-driven Russophobia, calling it a provocation that “won’t go unanswered.” With NATO backing Bulgaria and tensions rising in the Black Sea, fears of escalation grow. Though a full-blown conflict is unlikely, hybrid threats remain. Russia's fleet still holds Kalibr missile power, while Bulgaria, backed by NATO, braces for any threat near its modernizing navy.
