Putin RETALIATES After Ukrainian Drone Strike | MiG-31K Jets Take Off With Deadly Kinzhal Missiles
Ukraine has declared a nationwide air alert after Russian MiG-31K jets—capable of carrying Kinzhal aeroballistic missiles—took off, sparking immediate concern of long-range strikes.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed that critical Russia-Ukraine peace talks are set for Wednesday in Turkey. As the war drags on and battlefield realities shift, questions loom large over what Zelensky might concede—and what Moscow might demand. With Ukraine's military under relentless assault and Russian forces pushing deeper, the stakes for this diplomatic meeting couldn't be higher. The world watches anxiously: Will this be a real step toward peace or just another failed negotiation? All eyes now turn to Ankara as Western allies grow restless, humanitarian crises deepen, and Ukraine faces increasing pressure to admit the truth about the shifting balance on the ground.

Speculation swirls over a potential Trump-Putin showdown in China this September, as the Kremlin signals Putin is ready to meet the U.S. President during WWII victory celebrations in Beijing. While Trump’s attendance remains uncertain, recent tensions over the Ukraine war—highlighted by Trump’s frustration in their July 3 call—fuel interest. Trump has threatened new sanctions unless Russia agrees to a peace deal within 50 days, aligning with Putin’s China visit. Diplomats are watching closely as stakes rise ahead of a possible face-to-face encounter.

In a dramatic escalation of Western military support to Ukraine, Germany and the United States are sending five Patriot air defense systems to Kyiv "as soon as possible." The announcement, revealed by Ukrainian media and confirmed by German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, comes amid rising Russian aerial assaults and drone warfare in key battle zones.
Pistorius stressed that coordination with international partners would be finalized “within the next few days,” underlining a fast-tracked response to urgent Ukrainian defense needs. This deployment marks one of the most significant reinforcement efforts from NATO-aligned countries since the war began. Patriot systems, capable of intercepting missiles and aircraft at high altitudes, will enhance Ukraine’s capability to defend strategic infrastructure and urban centers. The plan also signals deepening U.S.-German military coordination and Western resolve to counter Russian advances. Kyiv has repeatedly called for stronger air defense amid relentless Russian bombardments of civilian and energy targets.

In a high-stakes overnight assault, Russia unleashed a devastating missile and drone barrage on Ukraine. The attack featured Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missiles—some of Moscow’s most advanced and costly weapons—reportedly targeting key defense industry facilities and airbases, particularly in the Ivano-Frankivsk region where combat aircraft were said to be stationed. The Russian Defense Ministry claimed all intended targets were successfully hit. However, Ukraine countered with reports of Patriot missile systems intercepting several incoming threats, though conflicting claims persist.
The strikes also rattled Poland, which scrambled aircraft in response. With each Kinzhal missile costing nearly $10 million, the assault underscores Russia’s intent to Cripple Ukraine’s air capabilities and destroy Western-supplied equipment. But with growing doubts about the Kinzhal's maneuverability and Ukraine’s increasing interception rates, the missile’s “hypersonic” reputation faces scrutiny. Regional tensions are now on edge as both sides escalate their battle for air superiority.

The United States has confirmed it is sending another Patriot air defense system to Ukraine to help the war-torn nation counter Russia's escalating aerial assaults. This decision comes as former President Donald Trump issued a strong statement, bashing Russian President Vladimir Putin for his aggressive military strategy. For months, Ukraine has pleaded for more advanced air defense, as the previous freeze in U.S. military aid allowed Russian warplanes to dominate the skies and launch devastating strikes with ballistic missiles like the Iskander and the hypersonic Kinzhal.
The Patriot system is considered Ukraine's only reliable and effective shield against these specific high-speed threats. Its advanced radar and PAC-3 MSE interceptors are critical for protecting high-value targets, including the capital city of Kyiv, and vital energy infrastructure that Russia has systematically targeted. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Ukraine needs more of these systems, as the current six to eight units leave vast areas of the country exposed to Russian attacks.
However, the deployment is not without risks. Each Patriot missile costs between $2-4 million, and Russia actively targets these valuable systems on the battlefield. The U.S. itself has a limited global inventory of Patriot units, balancing urgent requests from Ukraine with strategic commitments to allies in the Middle East and the South China Sea. This deployment signals a critical phase in the Russia-Ukraine war, testing both Ukrainian resilience and American strategic resolve.

Russia has intensified its aerial assault on Ukraine, launching over 95 Shaheed drones in a single night. Ukraine’s air defenses shot down 36, with another 25 lost due to electronic warfare. The strikes killed at least 7 civilians and injured over 50, with Sumy, Kharkiv, Donetsk, and Kherson among the hardest hit. A Russian Kinzhal missile also struck port infrastructure in Mykolaiv. The violence escalates as peace talks stall, with both sides ramping up attacks in a strategic push for leverage at the negotiating table.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio met Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Kuala Lumpur as Russia launched its most intense wave of strikes on Kyiv and Kharkiv in months. Amid mounting civilian casualties, Rubio expressed frustration at Moscow’s obstruction of ceasefire efforts. The meeting marked a major shift in Trump’s Ukraine policy, with the U.S. now viewing Putin—not Kyiv—as the main obstacle to peace. Trump’s leaked rebuke of Putin signals Washington’s harder stance as the war intensifies.

Russia has launched over 100 drones and missiles in a coordinated overnight assault across Ukraine — striking major cities including Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipro, and more. At least 12 people were killed, including civilians in Sumy, Odesa, and Kherson, and 69 others injured, with three children among the wounded.
President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed that over 1,200 drones have been fired at Ukraine in the past 7 days, calling on international partners to urgently deliver air defense systems. Russian drones also targeted recruitment centers in Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia, while Ukrainian air defenses intercepted 75 drones using advanced electronic warfare.
This marks the deadliest barrage since Friday’s mega strike of over 530 drones. Is the war entering a more brutal phase? Will Ukraine’s allies respond fast enough?

On July 6, Russian forces launched a calculated drone strike on a military enlistment and recruitment office in Kremenchuk, located in Ukraine's Poltava region. This attack came just hours after Russia conducted one of its largest aerial assaults on Ukraine, involving 157 drones and four S-300 missiles that targeted key regions including Kharkiv, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, and Kyiv, causing significant damage and casualties.
Ukraine's Ground Forces have confirmed that the UAV strike in Kremenchuk hit the recruitment center and also damaged a nearby residential building. While no casualties were reported among military staff or civilians at the enlistment facility, the attack caused a fire at a private property and forced the closure of a major road in the city's central district, disrupting civilian life.
This military escalation occurs amidst a complex geopolitical backdrop. A recent phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and former U.S. President Donald Trump failed to secure a ceasefire. Reports suggest that Putin, believing he has the upper hand in the conflict, is unwilling to halt the offensive and "throw away his lead."
With the date for any further peace talks still undecided, Russia continues its relentless campaign, pounding Ukrainian cities with a massive barrage of missiles and drones. This latest attack on a recruitment center signals a strategic shift to Cripple Ukraine's ability to reinforce its front lines. Stay tuned to Oneindia News for the latest updates on the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Russian troops have reportedly taken control of Melovoye in Ukraine’s Kharkov region and raised the Russian flag over the liberated settlement. According to military sources, servicemen from the 83rd Motorised Rifle Regiment and 72nd Motorised Rifle Division were involved in the offensive.
The operation, part of a larger strategy to push Ukrainian forces away from Russia’s border, aims to establish a “security zone” to safeguard civilians in nearby Russian regions. The Sever Group of Forces, supported by assault units, has gradually advanced through fortified positions, capturing both equipment and Ukrainian personnel. The symbolic act of hoisting the flag signals growing Russian control in strategic settlements near the front. This development underscores the intensifying nature of ground operations along the Kharkov front, as Russia presses to fortify its territorial gains.

In a striking show of regional power and coordination, Iran and Russia have launched CASAREX 2025—a large-scale joint search-and-rescue naval drill in the Caspian Sea. The three-day exercise, titled “Together for a Safe and Secure Caspian Sea,” is hosted by Iran’s Northern Fleet and involves elite units from the Iranian Navy, IRGC, and Law Enforcement Command.
A Russian naval vessel has already entered Iranian waters to begin the operational phase in the Imam Reza (AS) Maritime District. Military observers from other Caspian nations are present, further highlighting growing regional cooperation. Defense experts view this as a major geopolitical signal of Iran-Russia maritime alignment and a direct rebuttal to Western influence in regional waters. This unprecedented drill underscores rising multipolar power dynamics, boosting Tehran and Moscow’s call for autonomous regional security. The Caspian, once overlooked, is fast becoming a strategic stage in the global power competition.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged Russia to resume stalled peace talks, proposing a new round of negotiations next week. This plea follows a devastating Russian drone and missile strike on Odesa that killed at least one and injured six others. Zelenskyy confirmed that National Security and Defence Council head Rustem Umerov extended the offer, while reiterating his own readiness for a face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin. Meanwhile, tensions escalate as U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 50-day ceasefire ultimatum to Moscow, threatening harsh sanctions and vowing to boost arms support for Ukraine. Russia has not formally responded to the proposed talks, while Kremlin and military officials dismissed Western pressure as "blackmail." Despite diplomatic overtures, exchanges of fire continued on both sides, raising fears of further escalation in Europe’s deadliest conflict since WWII.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Russian President Vladimir Putin, setting a 50-day deadline to end the war in Ukraine or face sweeping consequences. Trump threatened "very steep tariffs" and harsh secondary sanctions on countries buying Russian oil. The proposed sanctions aim to criple Russia’s economy and isolate it globally. Trump’s ultimatum, delivered with unmistakable clarity, signals a possible escalation in economic warfare if Moscow refuses to agree to a ceasefire within the time limit.

Russia has launched its largest wave of strikes on Ukraine since the full-scale war began, killing at least 12 and injuring dozens more. Attacks spanned from Chernihiv to Odesa, involving over 350 drones, 14 ballistic missiles, and 9 cruise missiles. Video evidence confirms the use of upgraded Iskander ballistic missiles, reportedly evading U.S. Patriot defense systems. President Zelensky condemned Russia’s "total impunity," calling for tougher international sanctions and forceful responses. Meanwhile, Donald Trump slammed Putin as "crazy" but also criticized Zelensky, escalating tensions further. The strikes hit just as Russia and Ukraine were finalizing a major prisoner swap, threatening to derail already frozen peace talks.

Russia, China, and Iran are set to hold high-level trilateral talks to counter renewed EU threats of snapback sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program. Tehran claims the U.S. is not part of any negotiation and rejects new IAEA demands as biased and unlawful. While France, Britain, and Germany warn of penalties unless Iran complies, Moscow and Beijing back Tehran’s call for diplomacy. Separate Iran-EU talks in Istanbul are scheduled, but Iran maintains it will not engage with the U.S., escalating nuclear tensions ahead of a critical month.

In a defiant statement ahead of key NATO-related discussions, French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu declared France’s “absolute red line” in the Ukraine conflict: demilitarizing Ukraine while denying it NATO membership. Lecornu told Valeurs Actuelles that Europe cannot accept a defenseless Ukraine outside NATO, directly rejecting Russia's long-standing demands for a neutral, demilitarized Ukraine.
Russia, in contrast, insists any peace deal must address its security concerns — including Ukraine’s NATO ambition and military status. Lecornu's remarks come ahead of a UK-French push to reshape Ukraine’s post-war military under a Western “coalition of the willing.” Meanwhile, Moscow warns such moves will escalate the war, with foreign forces seen as “legitimate targets.” Tensions mount as Putin claims Ukraine reneged on the 2022 Istanbul terms that would’ve imposed limits on its army. The future of Ukraine’s military — and its place in Europe — hangs in the balance.

Russia has revealed that Washington has “postponed” a crucial third round of consultations aimed at resolving bilateral irritants, according to Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova. The talks, initially expected to build on earlier rounds held in Istanbul in February and April, are seen as essential for easing growing U.S.–Russia tensions. While the U.S. hasn't formally canceled the negotiations, the delay has sparked speculation over Washington’s intent and diplomatic posture. Zakharova emphasized that contacts remain active behind the scenes and that Moscow still perceives interest from the U.S. in improving ties. The “irritant removal” dialogue, seen as a rare platform amid escalating rhetoric, now faces renewed uncertainty. Is Washington backing away or recalibrating its approach?

In a dramatic escalation of Turkey’s political crackdown, three more opposition mayors — Abdurrahman Tutdere of Adiyaman, Zeydan Karalar of Adana, and Muhittin Bocek of Antalya — have been arrested in sweeping early-morning raids. All are members of the main opposition party, CHP, which has faced a wave of detentions following Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu’s imprisonment in March. The mayors are accused of bribery, bid-rigging, and organized crime, though exact charges remain undisclosed. The arrests come amid mounting criticism of President Erdogan’s government, with critics claiming the detentions are politically motivated attempts to weaken the CHP ahead of future elections. Imamoglu, now jailed, has since been nominated as the CHP’s presidential candidate, and his arrest sparked Turkey’s largest protests in a decade. Observers warn of further instability if the crackdown continues.

Turkey is battling deadly wildfires across multiple provinces, with two fatalities confirmed and over 200 homes destroyed. The blazes, burning for seven straight days, have taken a sinister turn after a group calling itself “Children of Fire” claimed responsibility for coordinated arson attacks in six cities. The group, allegedly linked to the banned Kurdish militant organization PKK, says it started the fires as part of a political campaign.
The PKK has not commented on the claim. Firefighting operations continue near major cities like Izmir, Antalya, and Istanbul, with support from helicopters and aircraft. Roads near popular resort town Çeşme have been closed, and hundreds have been evacuated. As emergency services struggle to contain the flames, Turkey now faces a national security scare amid environmental devastation. The interior ministry has launched investigations into the arson claims while warning that further attacks may be imminent as the dry summer season continues.
