Putin’s SINISTER Plan: STRIKES Ukraine on its Independence Day | 2 Killed, Several Injured | Watch!

Ukraine’s Independence Day was marred by escalating violence as Russia unleashed a massive drone and missile assault, killing two and injuring 33 in Kherson. Ukraine claims to have shot down 71 of 104 drones, but Moscow says Kyiv was the aggressor, targeting the Kursk nuclear plant and Russian energy sites. Fires erupted at facilities in Kursk and Ust-Luga, though no radiation leaks were reported. With Trump’s proposed peace talks stalling, the conflict now resembles a World War 3–like cycle of strikes and counterstrikes. #RussiaUkraineWar #WorldWar3 #UkraineIndependenceDay #BreakingNews #Putin #Zelensky #Kherson #DroneWar #UkraineWar #RussiaStrikes #UkraineCounterattack #KurskPlant #NuclearThreat #EnergyCrisis #UkraineFrontlines #MoscowClaims #GlobalConflict #WarFootage #TrumpPeaceDeal #StalledTalks #UkraineDefense #Geopolitics #WarEscalation #UkraineRussia #USPolitics #WorldNews Also Read Jaishankar Meets Putin in Moscow Amid Global Power Shifts :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/external-affairs-minister-s-jaishankar-holds-meeting-with-russian-president-putin-in-moscow-011-7836759.html?ref=DMDesc Amid Trump Tariffs, Jaishankar Urges Stronger India-Russia Trade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/amid-trump-tariffs-jaishankar-urges-stronger-india-russia-trade-011-7836083.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Assures That US Troops Will Not Be Deployed to Defend Ukraine Amid Ongoing Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-assures-us-troops-wont-defend-ukraine-011-7834921.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.124~

U.S Total Devastation On Tariffs & War: Putin-Xi-Modi Vs Trump-NATO-Macron | Details

World powers are aligning against the U.S. as Trump’s aggressive tariff policies fuel backlash. At the upcoming SCO summit in China, leaders including Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Narendra Modi will present a united front against Western dominance. Trump’s penalties on India and Brazil have only pushed them closer to the anti-Western bloc, with Russia emerging as the common thread binding these nations. Experts warn that tariffs may not only damage U.S. economic ties but also accelerate the rise of a multipolar world order. #Trump #SCO #Putin #XiJinping #NarendraModi #Erdogan #GlobalSouth #TradeWar #Tariffs #Russia #China #India #USPolitics #Geopolitics #WorldOrder #AntiWest #EconomicFallout #BRICS #SCO2025 #GlobalShift #USChinaRelations #RussiaChinaAlliance #TrumpTariffs #OilPolitics #GlobalTrade #Unilateralism #SCOLeaders #MultipolarWorld #ForeignPolicy #BreakingNews Also Read Trump To Arrange Face-To-Face Meeting Between Putin And Ukraine's Zelenskyy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-to-arrange-face-to-face-meeting-between-putin-and-ukraines-zelenskyy-7833925.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Says No Agreement On Ending Russia's War In Ukraine As Putin Says There Was An 'Understanding' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-no-agreement-on-ending-russia-war-ukraine-putin-7831387.html?ref=DMDesc US President Trump Says He Will Meet Russian Counterpart Putin On August 15 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-says-he-will-meet-russian-counterpart-putin-on-august-15-7824671.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~ED.420~GR.124~
