President Donald Trump has issued a sharp condemnation of Russia’s ongoing assault on Ukraine, calling Vladimir Putin’s actions "disgusting" during remarks from the Oval Office.
With civilian casualties mounting, Trump announced an August 8 deadline for Russia to make a deal — or face severe economic sanctions.
As the war intensifies, Trump’s warning marks a dramatic shift in tone and a high-stakes moment for U.S.-Russia relations.

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.

Russia has confirmed the burial of Colonel Sergei Ilyin, commander of the 155th Marine Brigade, days after reports emerged of a Ukrainian HIMARS strike that allegedly killed him along with 21 others at a command post in Kursk Oblast. Independent outlet Astra cites officials in Chuvash Republic, although the cause of death remains undisclosed. The same attack reportedly killed Major General Mikhail Gudkov.
The 155th Brigade has long been accused of war crimes in Bucha and Irpin, heightening the symbolic weight of Ilyin’s death. Ukrainian officials have not officially commented. Kyiv’s broader cross-border campaign in Kursk Oblast, launched in 2024, has claimed tens of thousands of Russian casualties. Russian forces, with help from North Korea, reclaimed much of the territory earlier this year. The Kremlin remains silent on the incident, even as its high-ranking military leadership continues to be decimated by precision Ukrainian strikes.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly unfazed by U.S. President Donald Trump’s growing pressure to reach a swift resolution in Ukraine. According to the Financial Times, Putin remains "immune" to Trump’s urgency and insists that peace talks must first address what he calls the “root causes” of the conflict.
These include NATO’s eastward expansion, Western military aid to Ukraine, and alleged discrimination against Russian-speaking citizens. The report says Putin conveyed this stance directly during recent calls with Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron. Despite Western efforts to halt the war, Putin blames the conflict on long-standing U.S. and EU policies that transformed Ukraine into an anti-Russia stronghold. As U.S. military aid continues to flow into Ukraine, Moscow warns the conflict will only escalate unless core Russian concerns are recognized and resolved.

In a major shift, U.S. President Donald Trump has approved a fresh $300 million military aid package to Ukraine, reportedly including rare Patriot surface-to-air missiles and medium-range rockets. The decision follows a brief and controversial Pentagon pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a known skeptic of increased aid to Kiev.
Trump’s move marks the first use of his Presidential Drawdown Authority, allowing emergency arms transfers directly from U.S. stockpiles. While the Pentagon claimed the pause was a limited stockpile review, it had caused concern among European allies and Ukrainian officials. Secretary of State Marco Rubio later clarified that most weapons shipments were never stopped. Trump, who has reopened ceasefire talks with Russia, acknowledged the high cost of Patriot systems but said Ukraine still needs them. The Kremlin has warned the continued weapons flow contradicts peace efforts and further complicates diplomacy.

India has reportedly declined a U.S. offer to buy F-35 stealth fighter jets, according to Bloomberg. The offer was made by President Trump during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Instead of purchasing American jets, India is prioritizing joint defense manufacturing initiatives and has shown greater interest in the Russian Su-57, especially after its debut at Aero India.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs downplayed Bloomberg’s report, confirming no formal talks on the F-35 have taken place yet. Meanwhile, the U.S. has slapped 25% tariffs on Indian imports due to a failed trade deal, escalating tensions. Trump also announced India would face a penalty over its continued defense ties with Russia. This deepening rift could impact U.S.-India defense cooperation and reshape future arms procurement.

Putin has made a bold declaration amid escalating tensions in the Russia-Ukraine war. In a televised address alongside Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, Putin confirmed the fall of Chasiv Yar — a key strategic town in Eastern Ukraine — and claimed a decisive advance across the frontline. With Oreshnik’s deployment and increasing momentum for Russian forces, Putin hinted at a major breakthrough in the ongoing Special Military Operation (SMO).

Russia has officially deployed its most feared and advanced weapon yet—Oreshnik, a hypersonic strike system capable of reshaping the battlefield. Unveiled during a high-level meeting with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, President Vladimir Putin declared the system fully operational and integrated into Russia’s Special Military Operation in Ukraine. With the liberation of Chasiv Yar claimed and the Oreshnik system in action, global attention turns to what this game-changing development means for the future of the war.

A dramatic kamikaze strike by Ukraine has been caught on camera as a suicide drone slammed into a Russian lake, erupting in a fiery explosion. The footage shows the moment the UAV crashes and detonates in a targeted assault deep inside Russian territory, sending shockwaves across the conflict zone. As Ukraine intensifies its use of precision drones, this explosive incident raises fresh concerns over Russia's inland vulnerability and the expanding scope of the drone war.

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.
