In a bold diplomatic and military move, India hosted Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. with full state honours—while simultaneously dispatching warships for joint patrols in the South China Sea. INS Delhi, INS Shakti and INS Kiltan sailed alongside Philippine vessels inside Manila’s exclusive economic zone, triggering a subtle yet unmistakable warning to China. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs reaffirmed support for freedom of navigation, calling the waters part of the “global commons.”
The joint drill coincided with Marcos’ five-day India visit, where the two nations signed a landmark Strategic Partnership agreement to boost defence, maritime cooperation, disaster relief and cyber security. While India didn’t name China, Beijing’s rebuke of “third-party interference” left little ambiguity. The coordinated political hospitality and military manoeuvres signal India’s rising Indo-Pacific assertiveness and a strategic alignment with one of China’s fiercest regional rivals—firmly placing New Delhi in the emerging anti-China security web across the Indo-Pacific.

China has issued a stark warning after the Philippines and India completed their first-ever joint naval patrol in the disputed South China Sea, reporting “shadowing” vessels and prompting Beijing’s PLA Southern Theatre Command to declare its forces on high alert. The maritime cooperative activity—as three Indian warships operated alongside Philippine frigates near Scarborough Shoal—coincided with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s state visit to New Delhi, signaling a deeper strategic bond between the two democracies.
China condemned the move, accusing Manila of “rallying external powers” and asserting that such so-called joint patrols undermine regional peace. Analysts warn India's involvement could reshape the Quad’s maritime posture and provoke tougher Chinese responses. Beijing insists disputes must be settled directly and vows to safeguard its territorial sovereignty. As $3 trillion in trade flows through these waters annually, this flashpoint could mark a significant shift in Indo-Pacific security dynamics.

A serious diplomatic row has erupted after a Russian diplomatic vehicle was attacked by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank near the illegal outpost of Giv’at Asaf. According to Russia’s Foreign Ministry, the attackers shouted threats and damaged the vehicle while Israeli soldiers stood by without intervening. Moscow has condemned the incident as a flagrant violation of the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and filed a formal protest with Israel. As tensions soar amid the ongoing Gaza war — which has already claimed over 59,000 Palestinian lives — the Kremlin has doubled down on its support for a two-state solution and accused Israel of undermining basic diplomatic norms. This incident adds fuel to a growing fire of international criticism over Israel’s conduct in the region.

In a chilling development, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev declared that Moscow is no longer bound by its self-imposed moratorium on deploying medium- and short-range missiles — a move that signals a sharp escalation in its confrontation with NATO. Citing “the result of NATO’s anti-Russian policy,” Medvedev warned the West to brace for “further steps,” calling this aggressive shift a “new reality” that Russia’s opponents must face. This policy shift paves the way for the Kremlin to deploy ground-based missile systems previously banned under the now-defunct INF Treaty. Moscow’s decision has sparked fears across Europe and the U.S. of a renewed arms race and heightened global instability. The announcement comes amid rising tensions over Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing military drills along Russian borders. As Russia signals its readiness to respond forcefully, the geopolitical chessboard enters dangerous new territory.

At a press conference, Donald Trump fiercely distanced himself from the Ukraine war, calling it “Biden’s war” and vowing to end it. Responding to a shocking question about Ukraine conscripting elderly men and individuals with Down Syndrome to fight on the front lines, Trump said, “I haven’t heard that... but I’m here to get us out.” He claimed the war would’ve never happened under his leadership and criticized the Biden administration’s continued funding of Ukraine’s military, which he described as “scraping the bottom of the barrel.”
Trump touted his record of stopping five wars and promised Ukraine would be the sixth. He also referenced diffusing tensions between India and Pakistan “within days.” The remarks have reignited debates over American military aid and raised concerns about ethical limits in wartime conscription. Trump’s statement drew applause from some, shock from others, and further polarized an already divisive foreign policy debate.

In a dramatic display of low-tech defense, Russian troops reportedly shot down six Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using assault rifles during an attempted drone attack on a freight train in the Zaporozhye Region. The encounter, captured on video and shared by RT, shows soldiers firing directly at incoming drones — destroying them mid-air before they could reach their target.
The freight train was secured, and no damage was reported. According to Russian sources, this marks an increase in Ukraine’s drone attacks on civilian infrastructure — a trend Moscow says it will counter with any means necessary.
