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.

Russia Bombards Kiev Overnight: Kiev was rocked by a wave of explosions early Friday morning as Ukrainian officials reported a massive overnight barrage of Russian missiles and drones. At least 13 impacts were recorded across the capital, with multiple fires lighting up the skyline in dramatic fashion. Blurred footage circulating on Ukrainian social media shows the chaos as civilians sheltered from the blasts.
Ukrainian authorities claim the strikes targeted non-residential areas, but falling debris injured over a dozen people and caused fires in residential neighborhoods. The Russian Ministry of Defense has not yet issued a statement. The attacks came just hours after a reported phone call between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, in which Trump urged Moscow to halt the fighting.

An explosion rocked Russia’s Belgorod region early Friday, derailing a diesel locomotive and halting rail traffic for hours. Russian officials, including Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov, confirmed the sabotage, which delayed even his own train. The blast follows a series of rail attacks in Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh, with Moscow accusing Ukraine of orchestrating "terrorist acts" to target infrastructure. President Putin condemned the incidents as attempts to derail diplomacy backed by the U.S., while analysts see Ukraine leveraging such disruptions to gain ground at the negotiation table.

Russian President Vladimir Putin slammed Ukrainian nationalists as "idiots" for destroying Soviet-era World War II monuments, linking the acts to neo-Nazi ideology. Citing Ukraine's de-communization efforts—such as removing statues and renaming cities—Putin accused Kyiv of erasing the Red Army's legacy and glorifying Nazi collaborators. He reaffirmed “de-Nazification” as a central goal of Russia’s war. Meanwhile, Moscow claimed full control over the Kursk border region, praising volunteers for thwarting last year's Ukrainian attempt to seize the nuclear power plant.
