Istanbul Peace Talks Hang By A Thread As Russia-Ukraine Trade Fresh Strikes | Peace Talks To Fail?
As Istanbul peace talks inch closer, Ukraine and Russia intensify drone warfare, casting a long shadow over diplomatic hopes.
Ukraine’s 30th Mechanized Brigade struck a Russian tank with ruthless precision, declaring, “Found it.
Hit it.
Finished it.” Meanwhile, Russia’s Defence Ministry claims strike drones from the Rubikon Centre are decimating Ukrainian positions in Donetsk.
Despite ongoing preparations for peace talks, both sides escalate attacks, fueling skepticism over any ceasefire.
The frontlines remain ablaze, and so does international concern over the potential collapse of negotiations before they begin.

Ukrainian kamikaze drones targeted residential areas in Russia’s Kursk Region, wounding at least 14 civilians, including four children. Several apartment blocks and homes were damaged across towns like Rylsk, Artakovo, and Lgov, with some victims hospitalized. A drone also ignited a major fire at an agricultural facility. The attacks follow recent ceasefire discussions in Istanbul. Russia has blamed Ukraine for manipulating talks while intensifying strikes. As the region braces for further attacks, authorities urge vigilance amid escalating cross-border hostilities.

In a fiery UN Security Council address, Russia’s envoy Vassily Nebenzia accused Ukrainian President Zelensky of clinging to power by avoiding elections and embezzling billions in Western aid. He claimed European nations are forcing Kyiv to fight until the last Ukrainian falls, all while pushing their anti-Russia agenda. With Ukraine allegedly nearing collapse, Russia says the West is prolonging a "senseless meat grinder" of war. The scathing remarks reflect Moscow’s escalating rhetorical offensive amid deepening global divides over the Ukraine conflict.

A senior EU official claims President Trump is hesitating to confront Vladimir Putin over Ukraine, prioritizing a potential diplomatic reset with Russia over ending the war. Despite condemning Russia’s missile attacks, Trump has avoided authorizing major sanctions. Sources told Politico that Trump is calculating the cost of straining ties with Moscow. As Ukraine braces for more strikes, Trump eyes upcoming Russia-Ukraine talks in Istanbul before deciding his next move—raising fears in Brussels that the U.S. may abandon Kyiv in pursuit of a broader deal with Putin.

Turkey is pushing for a high-level Trump-Putin-Zelenskyy summit to cap the ongoing Istanbul peace talks on Ukraine. Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, in Kyiv to meet Zelenskyy, claims the war could end in 2025 if all sides commit to talks and a lasting cease-fire. While Ukraine demands advance proposals and a full cease-fire, Russia insists on presenting terms in person. The U.S. threatens to disengage if Moscow resists progress, and Trump’s 30-day truce initiative remains stalled amid territorial disputes.

Russia says it has captured three more settlements in its slow but persistent advance across Ukraine’s eastern front — two in Donetsk and one in the northern Sumy region. The announcement signals a renewed push by Russian forces months after the failed attempt to seize Kyiv. As Moscow’s focus remains on the heavily contested Donbas, Ukrainian forces are battling to hold key positions while refusing to acknowledge territorial losses. With both sides offering conflicting reports and the frontlines shifting, the war appears far from over. This update dives into the latest military developments, strategic shifts, and what they mean for Ukraine’s defense and Russia’s long-term goals.

Zelensky, alongside French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, held a high-level phone call with Donald Trump on May 16. The emergency dialogue came as Russia refused a ceasefire and demanded full Ukrainian withdrawal from key regions it doesn't entirely control — Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson. While Ukraine, led by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, pushed for genuine negotiations, Putin declined direct talks and sent aide Vladimir Medinsky instead. The only breakthrough: a 1,000-for-1,000 prisoner of war swap.

The Russian Defense Ministry has confirmed the liberation of Kotlyarovka in the Donetsk People's Republic. As part of ongoing offensives, Russian units claimed significant tactical gains across Donetsk and Sumy regions. According to the ministry, more than 1,000 Ukrainian troops were killed and dozens of vehicles, HIMARS launchers, and depots were destroyed. The Sever, Zapad, Yug, and Tsentr groups all carried out strikes, targeting multiple brigades. The offensive, part of Russia's larger special military operation, marks a major milestone in the shifting battlefield dynamics of eastern Ukraine.

A fresh wave of Russian airstrikes has killed at least eight civilians and injured 24 others across Ukraine, including multiple children. Ukrainian officials report intensified attacks amid Kyiv’s calls for a ceasefire. Among the dead are a 12-year-old girl in Samars, a 68-year-old man in Semenivka, and a child in Dnipropetrovsk. Air defenses intercepted 37 of 100 drones, while others vanished off radar. Deadly strikes continued across Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Chernihiv, as the human toll of the ongoing conflict grows heavier by the day.
