The United States has approved an $825 million arms package for Ukraine, marking its hardest response yet to Russia’s brutal strike on Kyiv that killed 19 civilians, including four children. The deal, announced by the Trump administration, includes 3,350 extended-range missiles, GPS systems, spare parts, and training support. Funding will be shared between NATO allies Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway, alongside U.S. foreign financing. Officials declared the sale a vital step to strengthen Ukraine’s defenses while signaling Washington’s resolve against Moscow’s escalating war. The move follows two July deals totaling over $650 million in aid, covering armored vehicles, air defense, and artillery support. With peace talks collapsing after Trump’s Alaska meeting with Putin, this deal underscores a shift from negotiations to hard power. Ukrainian President Zelensky warned that Putin “breaks every promise” and only responds with missiles, as the U.S. arms Kyiv for a long and dangerous war.

The prospect of a Putin-Zelensky peace summit has collapsed into chaos following Russia’s devastating strike on Kyiv that killed 19 people, including four children. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared there would be “no summit, only blood, missiles and broken promises,” while Ukraine retaliated with drone attacks on Russian oil refineries. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz bluntly confirmed there would “obviously” be no summit despite Donald Trump’s dramatic push after his Alaska meeting with Putin. Moscow insists talks can only happen after “tangible progress,” something Kyiv and NATO allies reject outright. The collapse highlights the crumbling state of diplomacy in Europe, where leaders now openly prepare for wider war. Trump had hoped to position himself as a peacemaker, but European officials dismissed his roadmap as unrealistic. With NATO deployments looming and Russia warning of escalation, the world faces a dangerous new turning point.

Russia has flatly denied any agreement on an air ceasefire with Ukraine, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declaring “no deals have been reached.” The rejection came amid speculation of a temporary truce after the Alaska peace talks with Trump. Instead, Russia intensified its aerial assault, launching nearly 600 drones and 31 missiles overnight on August 28. Kyiv was hit hardest, with hypersonic Kinzhal strikes killing at least 18 civilians, including 12 in Darnytskyi, as the war enters an even deadlier phase.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky issued a fiery statement after one of the largest Russian strikes on Kyiv, which killed at least 19 people, including four children. Nearly 600 drones and 31 missiles, among them ballistic, rained down on the capital, leaving devastation in their wake. Zelensky said the assault proves Russia has no intention of peace, accusing Vladimir Putin of striking not only Ukraine but also Europe, the U.S., and even President Trump. He warned that Putin is killing children rather than pursuing negotiations, breaking promises to leaders while escalating attacks. Calling for urgent global action, Zelensky urged for sanctions and tariffs against those financing Moscow’s war. “There are no deadlines Putin will not break,” he said, pressing the world to deliver a strong response to Russian aggression.

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.
