Ukraine could soon receive NATO-like security guarantees as Zelensky visits Washington with top EU leaders. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff claims Russia has for the first time conceded to allowing America to provide “Article 5-style protections” to Ukraine—a breakthrough in negotiations. The proposed deal would shield Ukraine militarily without full NATO membership, avoiding Russia’s objections. While Zelensky calls the guarantees historic, disputes remain over territory. EU leaders back the plan, warning against any peace deal that forces Ukraine to cede land.

Russia launched a devastating strike on a U.S.-owned factory in Mukachevo, Ukraine, targeting a civilian facility producing coffee machines and household appliances. Over 600 workers were inside at the time, and at least 15 were injured. The attack caused massive structural damage, with thick black smoke rising from the wreckage. Ukrainian authorities and local officials confirmed that no military equipment was produced at the plant.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump reacted sharply after Russian missile strikes destroyed an American-owned factory in Ukraine, accusing Joe Biden of weakness and incompetence. Trump argued that Ukraine cannot win the war without striking inside Russia, blasting Biden for only allowing Kyiv to “defend” instead of “fight back.” He claimed the invasion would have “zero chance” of happening if he were in office, declaring that Biden’s failed leadership emboldened Moscow. The attack, which hit a U.S. electronics plant in western Ukraine, has intensified tensions and raised fears that Russia is deliberately targeting American investments. Trump’s fiery comments come as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warns that Vladimir Putin does not want peace but seeks to install a Russian-controlled puppet regime. With Washington and Europe scrambling for security guarantees, Trump’s blunt remarks signal deep divisions in U.S. policy as the war enters a new, dangerous phase.

Russia has escalated the war in Ukraine with one of its biggest aerial assaults of the year, launching over 600 drones and missiles on western Ukraine, striking residential areas and even a U.S.-owned electronics plant near the Hungarian border. At least one person was killed and 15 injured, including six night-shift workers at the American-run Flex factory. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Moscow of deliberately targeting American businesses, declaring that Putin does not seek peace but aims to install a Russian puppet in Ukraine. The attack came just days after U.S. President Donald Trump met Putin in Alaska and hosted Zelensky and European leaders at the White House. While Russia’s foreign minister claimed peace talks could happen, Zelensky said Moscow’s actions prove otherwise. The strike has raised tensions in Washington and Europe, with leaders weighing stronger sanctions and new military guarantees for Kyiv.

The moment of strike shook Ukraine overnight as Russia unleashed one of its biggest aerial assaults of the war. More than 600 drones and missiles rained down on western Ukraine — a region long spared from such devastation.
Among the targets was a U.S.-owned Flex electronics plant in Mukachevo, employing thousands of civilians. Explosions lit up the night sky, factories and infrastructure went up in flames, and civilians rushed into shelters as air raid sirens screamed.
President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the attack, calling it a strike against both Ukraine’s sovereignty and U.S. interests. The assault came just days after the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska, where peace talks were on the table. Now, with nearly 1000 missiles launched since the White House summit, Moscow has sent its message: no city is safe, no peace on Western terms.
Is this the moment Putin buried diplomacy and pushed the war to a deadlier stage?

Russia unleashed one of its biggest aerial assaults of the war, firing over 600 drones and missiles in a single night. A key target: a U.S.-owned Flex electronics plant in Mukachevo, western Ukraine, producing coffee machines and printer cartridges. At least 19 people were injured and the civilian factory suffered massive structural damage.
Speculation erupted online that Russia had deployed its deadly Oreshnik hypersonic missiles, capable of flying at Mach 5+ and evading air defenses. Reports later clarified the facility was struck by cruise missiles — but the fear of escalation lingers.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the attack, calling it not only an assault on Ukraine but also on American interests. The strike comes just days after Donald Trump hosted Vladimir Putin in Alaska, attempting to broker a peace deal. Many see the bombing as Putin’s rejection of diplomacy — and a direct challenge to Washington.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that Israel will conquer all of Gaza, even if Hamas agrees to a hostage deal, intensifying fears of an unrelenting military campaign. Speaking after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a new offensive on Gaza City, Netanyahu said Hamas’ removal is non-negotiable and compared leaving them in Gaza to leaving Nazis in Berlin. He cited U.S. President Donald Trump’s backing, noting Trump’s statement that Hamas “cannot stay” in Gaza. Despite mounting international condemnation and warnings from the UN and humanitarian groups, Netanyahu dismissed criticism as a “tsunami of anti-Semitism.” The humanitarian toll continues to escalate, with over 62,000 Palestinians reported killed since October 2023. Several nations, including France, are considering recognition of Palestine in response to the crisis. Netanyahu insists the war could end immediately if Hamas disarms, but vowed Israel will not stop short of total conquest.

Russia launched a deadly overnight strike on U.S.-owned Flex Ltd in Ukraine, using drones, cruise missiles, and Kinzhal hypersonic weapons. The attack, which left at least 15 people injured, coincided with Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s visit to Moscow, where he met President Putin and Foreign Minister Lavrov. Jaishankar slammed U.S. oil policy while Russia intensified its pressure on the West. With over 800 workers evacuated and significant damage reported, analysts say the strike may have been a warning to Washington and its allies over India sanctions.
