North Korea To ATTACK Ukraine? Kim Jong Un Goes ALL-IN With Putin, Pledges Support Amid Ukraine War

Here’s a full content set for your North Korea–Russia alliance story: North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has pledged “unconditional support” for Russia and President Vladimir Putin during a meeting with Russian security aide Sergei Shoigu in Pyongyang. State media confirmed plans to expand into a deeper “strategic partnership,” defying global sanctions. The meeting comes as South Korea’s President Lee Jae-myung pushes for peace talks, but Kim appears more aligned with Moscow, reportedly even sending troops to aid Russia in Ukraine. Meanwhile, U.S. and allies accuse Russia of helping Kim evade sanctions and supplying him with advanced weapons tech. #KimJongUn #Putin #RussiaNorthKorea #StrategicPartnership #UkraineWar #NorthKorea #SouthKorea #GlobalSecurity #Geopolitics #Sanctions #Pyongyang #Shoigu #KoreanPeninsula #KimPutinAlliance #MilitarySupport #UNSanctions #EastAsiaTensions #RussiaUkraine #NorthKoreaRussia #LeeJaeMyung #DialogueCalls #NuclearThreat #AsiaWatch #GlobalConflict #DefenseNews #AuthoritarianAllies #BreakingNews #RussiaSupport #UkraineCrisis #KimBacksPutin Also Read 'Something Happened To This Guy': Trump Slams Putin For Russia's Fresh Attack On Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/something-happened-to-this-guy-trump-slams-putin-for-russias-fresh-attack-on-ukraine-4163675.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Says Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire Talks To Begin 'Immediately' Following Call With Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-says-russia-ukraine-ceasefire-talks-to-begin-immediately-following-call-with-putin-4158165.html?ref=DMDesc Putin Declares 'Easter Truce' In Russia-Ukraine War Amid US Proposal, Ceasefire To Stay Till Sunday Midnight :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/putin-declares-easter-truce-in-russia-ukraine-war-amid-us-proposal-to-stay-untill-sunday-midnight-4128473.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.125~HT.336~

Wrongful DEATH lawsuit | $5 Million payout to family of Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt’s family

The Trump administration has agreed to pay $5 million to Ashli Babbitt’s family, settling a $30 million wrongful death lawsuit. Babbitt, a Trump supporter and Air Force veteran, was fatally shot by Capitol Police during the January 6 Capitol riot. Though the officer was cleared of wrongdoing, Babbitt's family argued she was unarmed and received no warning. Trump has cast her as a martyr, while Capitol Police expressed disappointment, maintaining the officer acted in self-defense with no laws broken. #AshliBabbitt #Jan6 #CapitolRiots #TrumpNews #WrongfulDeath #USPolitics #CapitolPolice #MartyrDebate #AirForceVeteran #BabbittSettlement #CapitolHill #TrumpSupporter #BabbittLawsuit #JusticeDebate #SelfDefense #PoliceUseOfForce #CapitolShooting #BreakingNews #MartyrNarrative #TrumpReturns #BidenCertification #PoliticalViolence #DCRiots #CivilSettlement #CapitolIncident #HeroOrVictim #USLaw #PoliceNegligence #CongressAttack #CourtSettlement ~GR.125~HT.408~

US' WW 3 Preps? Trump Sends 3K+ Bombs to Israel as Iran Threatens to Flatten All US Military Bases

The U.S. has approved a major arms shipment to Israel, including 3,000 bombs, signaling preparation not just for Gaza, but possibly a strike on Iran. Israeli officials confirmed that these munitions will enhance Air Force readiness for large-scale operations. While the Gaza offensive takes global attention, analysts warn the real showdown may be brewing with Tehran. This deal, once frozen under Biden, was fast-tracked by Trump. Experts say the munitions can also target hardened Iranian facilities—raising fresh concerns about regional escalation and U.S. involvement in Israel-Iran tensions. #IsraelIran #USWeaponsDeal #GazaOffensive #TrumpReturns #MiddleEastTensions #IDF #HellfireMissiles #USIsraelAlliance #IranStrike #AirForceReady #PentagonDeal #BidenFreeze #MilitaryEscalation #TehranTarget #GazaCover #USMunitions #DefenseContractors #LockheedMartin #Boeing #L3Harris ~ED.346~HT.336~
