‘Trump BETRAYED Us, Diverted 20,000 Missiles’ | Zelensky UNLEASHES on Trump

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a TV interview that the Trump administration diverted 20,000 anti-drone missiles, originally approved under Biden, away from Ukraine to the Middle East. Zelensky said Ukraine relied on these precision-guided weapons to counter Shaheed drone strikes, including a record 472 drones on June 1. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth cited urgency but skipped a major Ukraine meeting. Trump later resumed aid after Kyiv agreed to a ceasefire, sparking backlash over his stance to “let the war continue.” #Zelensky #Trump #UkraineAid #DroneWar #MiddleEast #MilitaryAid #ShaheedDrones #TrumpReturns #AntiDroneMissiles #UkraineCrisis #PeteHegseth #USUkraine #WarPolitics #CeasefireDeal #BreakingNews #UkraineWar #DefenseControversy #BidenVsTrump #WeaponRedirection #UkraineDefense #MilitaryShift #Geopolitics #TrumpPolicy #RussiaUkraineWar #USForeignPolicy #DronesInWarfare #ZelenskyReveals #MissileDiversion #AIDFreeze #TrumpControversy Also Read Protests Intensify In Los Angeles After Trump Deploys Hundreds Of National Guard Troops :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/protests-intensify-in-los-angeles-after-trump-deploys-hundreds-of-national-guard-troops-4175915.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.122~HT.408~

‘This Is An Attack On Justice…’ UN BLASTS US Sanctions On ICC Judges Amid Netanyahu’s Probe [Video]

‘This Is An Attack On Justice…’ UN BLASTS US Sanctions On ICC Judges Amid Netanyahu’s Probe

The UN’s top human rights official, Volker Türk, has strongly condemned U.S. sanctions on four ICC judges as “deeply corrosive” to international justice. These judges, who ruled on cases involving alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and arrest warrants against Israeli leaders, now face sanctions from the Biden administration. Türk warned that targeting international judges for executing their duties endangers the rule of law. The EU has backed the ICC, vowing to counter these sanctions and defend the court’s independence from political pressure. #ICC #USSanctions #UN #VolkerTürk #InternationalJustice #Netanyahu #AfghanistanWarCrimes #RuleOfLaw #HumanRights #EU #GlobalJustice #ICCJUDGES #GazaInvestigation #SanctionsBacklash #TrumpSanctions #USvsICC #InternationalLaw #WarCrimesAccountability #JusticeSystem #LegalIndependence Also Read Women's Cricket World Cup Schedule: ICC Announces Match Dates, Venues; Pakistan Matches In Colombo :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/womens-cricket-world-cup-schedule-icc-announces-match-dates-venues-pakistan-matches-in-colombo-4170415.html?ref=DMDesc Shreyas Iyer Wins ICC Award For His Valuable Contribution In Champions Trophy 2025 :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/shreyas-iyer-wins-icc-award-for-his-valuable-contribution-in-champions-trophy-2025-4124361.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Cricketers Face Another Setback as All Fifty Players Go Unsold in the Hundred Draft :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/pakistan-cricketers-face-another-setback-as-all-fifty-players-go-unsold-in-the-hundred-draft-4094855.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.336~

Biden BREAKS Silence Over Trump’s Autopen Probe | SLAMS Trump Calling It ‘Ridiculous’ Controversy

Joe Biden has broken his silence following Donald Trump's renewed criticism over his use of an autopen to sign executive orders. During a recent Oval Office ceremony, Trump mocked Biden, questioning the legality of using the signature machine. Now, House Republicans are planning a formal investigation. In a sharp rebuttal, Biden dismissed the allegations, stating, “I made the decisions about pardons, executive orders, legislation. Any suggestion that I didn’t is ridiculous and false.” The controversy revives questions about presidential protocol and Trump’s persistent attacks on his predecessor. #Biden #Trump #Autopen #ExecutiveOrders #BidenResponse #GOPProbe #OvalOffice #SignatureScandal #WhiteHouse #PoliticalDrama #Presidency #Congress #Republicans #Democrats #BidenVsTrump #AutopenControversy #BidenPressStatement #ExecutiveBranch #BidenNews #BreakingPolitics Also Read PM Modi Sends Best Wishes To Joe Biden After Aggressive Prostate Cancer Diagnosis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pm-modi-sends-best-wishes-to-joe-biden-after-aggressive-prostate-cancer-diagnosis-4157601.html?ref=DMDesc Former US President Joe Biden Diagnosed With 'Aggressive' Prostate Cancer :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/former-us-president-joe-biden-diagnosed-with-aggressive-prostate-cancer-4157229.html?ref=DMDesc US Prez Trump Says He's Revoking Biden's Security Clearance, Ending Intelligence Briefings In Payback Move :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-prez-trump-says-hes-revoking-bidens-security-clearance-ending-intelligence-briefings-in-paybac-4065405.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.336~

‘Kiev Can’t Strike Without…’ Lavrov BLASTS Starmer And Zelensky | Russia BLAMES UK For Terror…

Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has accused the UK of playing a direct role in Ukraine’s alleged terrorist attacks inside Russia. Speaking at the 'Forum of the Future 2050' in Moscow, Lavrov said Ukraine would be “helpless” without British assistance, citing deadly sabotage incidents and coordinated drone strikes across Russian territory. Lavrov claimed the U.S. has pulled back, leaving Britain “100%” involved. The UK has declined to comment on operational matters, while Moscow’s ambassador to London also pointed to UK-supplied geospatial data as key to recent attacks. #Russia #Ukraine #Lavrov #UKSupport #TerroristAttacks #DroneStrikes #Geopolitics #Moscow #FutureForum #RussiaUKTensions #WarUpdate #BreakingNews #KievAttacks #RussiaUnderAttack #BritishInvolvement #UKraineConflict #DroneWarfare #RussiaUkraineWar #LavrovSpeech #GeoSpatialData Also Read Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Blames Putin & Zelenskyy as He Seeks to End Ukraine War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-blames-putin-zelenskyy-as-he-seeks-to-end-ukraine-war-4109951.html?ref=DMDesc
