Ukraine launched overnight strikes on key Russian oil refineries and military targets in a fierce act of retaliation after a devastating Russian missile barrage on Kyiv killed 14 people, including children. The Ukrainian military confirmed direct hits on the Kuibyshev refinery in Samara Oblast and the Afipsky refinery in Krasnodar Krai, crippling Russia’s vital fuel infrastructure. Explosions lit up the night as Ukrainian forces struck deep into Russian territory, signaling a dangerous escalation in the conflict. The strikes came just hours after Russian missiles reduced Kyiv neighborhoods to rubble, leaving families shattered. Analysts warn the attacks mark a new phase of Ukraine’s war strategy—targeting the heart of Russia’s energy economy to undermine its war machine. With Moscow vowing retaliation and Kyiv showing no signs of backing down, fears are rising that the war is spiraling into an even bloodier chapter.

Tensions between Washington and Moscow are escalating as U.S. jets intercepted a Russian IL-20 “Coot” spy plane near Alaska’s Air Defense Identification Zone. NORAD scrambled an E-3 Sentry, F-16 fighters, and a KC-135 tanker to monitor the aircraft, marking the fourth Russian reconnaissance flight in a week. Though Moscow’s planes remained in international airspace, repeated incursions follow Putin’s recent meeting with Trump, fueling speculation of deliberate provocations. With rising hostilities, analysts warn the standoff could spiral toward a World War 3 flashpoint.

US Vice President J.D. Vance has defended his fiery Oval Office clash with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, calling the February confrontation “useful” for Americans to witness. The heated exchange erupted during Zelensky’s Washington visit to secure a deal over Ukraine’s mineral resources. When Donald Trump explained his decision to stay neutral and pursue diplomacy with Moscow instead of ramping up military aid, Zelensky accused him of speaking from the safety of “a nice ocean.” Vance shot back, calling the remark “disrespectful,” and Trump told Zelensky not to lecture Americans. Vance later argued that years of unchecked aid under Joe Biden lacked strategy and failed to advance peace. He said the episode exposed Washington’s frustrations and underlined Trump’s push for a settlement with Moscow. The clash has become a flashpoint in US-Ukraine relations, showing cracks in support for Kyiv as Trump courts a diplomatic end to the war.

Denmark has summoned the US envoy after explosive reports claimed individuals linked to Donald Trump secretly pushed for a secessionist movement in Greenland. According to Denmark’s national broadcaster, operatives tied to Trump tried to infiltrate Greenlandic society, recruit locals, and stir anti-Denmark sentiment to push the Arctic island closer to Washington. One alleged operative even compiled lists of critics and potential pro-Trump supporters in Greenland, while others forged links with politicians and business leaders. Denmark, which rules Greenland as a self-governing territory, called the reported interference “unacceptable” and “very serious.” The revelation revives tensions dating back to 2019 when Trump openly offered to buy Greenland, claiming it was vital for US security. Copenhagen strongly rejected that idea. Now, with accusations of a covert CIA-backed operation, relations between Denmark and the US face one of their most dramatic tests in decades.

US President Donald Trump has sparked controversy by suggesting that the United States should own the land where over 28,500 American troops are stationed in South Korea, instead of continuing under the current lease arrangement. Speaking with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung at the White House, Trump emphasized the massive investment made by the US in building military bases and hinted at renegotiating or taking full control. The proposal raises questions about the future of US-South Korea relations and strategic military deployments in the region.

Donald Trump’s hands are making headlines — but not for speeches or policies. From mysterious dark bruises to attempts at covering them with makeup, the 79-year-old president has the internet buzzing. The White House claims it’s “just from too many handshakes,” but experts suggest chronic venous insufficiency could be the cause. Is it a simple medical issue, or is something being hidden? We break down the evidence, timeline, and what this could mean for Trump’s public image.

Former President Donald Trump expressed interest in meeting North Korean leader Kim Jong Un this year, during talks with South Korea’s President Lee Jae Myung at the White House. Trump praised his past relationship with Kim, recalling their historic 2019 meeting at Panmunjom in the Demilitarized Zone. While Trump signaled readiness for renewed diplomacy, North Korea has so far ignored his outreach, continuing to criticize U.S.-South Korea joint military drills. Analysts say Trump’s remarks could mark an attempt to revive stalled talks with Pyongyang.
