Evening news wrap: Putin condemns US strikes on Iran; bomb blast at Nadia during vote counting of Kaliganj bypoll; and more
Monday, 23 June 2025 () Amid escalating tensions, Russian President Putin condemned US strikes on Iran, as Israel bombed Iranian military sites, including Evin Prison. In India, a bomb blast during Kaliganj bypoll counting tragically killed a child, prompting a swift response from CM Mamata Banerjee. The NIA made arrests linked to the Pahalgam terror attack.
Amid the escalating U.S.–Israeli airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear and military sites, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi made an unannounced trip to Moscow to meet President Vladimir Putin. In a blunt statement, Putin condemned the attacks, calling them “aggression with no basis or justification.” The meeting signals a tightening Tehran-Moscow front and raises fresh questions about how the crisis could widen if Russia throws its weight behind Iran diplomatically—or even militarily.

In a major development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has openly sided with Iran, stating there's no evidence that Tehran is pursuing nuclear weapons. Citing both Russia's own findings and the IAEA's assessment, Putin declared Israel had been told this repeatedly. Meanwhile, China has urged Israel not to abuse its military power, signaling growing international resistance to further escalation. IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi confirmed there's no indication of weaponisation. These mounting global voices are expected to complicate Trump's path if he plans a direct US strike on Iran amid rising conflict.

Donald Trump has once again hinted at regime change in Iran, posting “Why wouldn’t there be a regime change???”—contradicting top U.S. officials who deny such intentions. While VP J.D. Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stress the goal is to neutralize nuclear threats, Trump pitches “MIGA – Make Iran Great Again.” The mixed signals have exposed sharp divisions within the Republican Party and raised global concerns about America’s true objectives amid the escalating Iran-Israel conflict.

In a powerful retaliation, Israel has launched a wave of missile strikes on Iran, targeting multiple high-profile sites across Tehran and Karaj. Among the most shocking hits: the Red Crescent building, state broadcaster IRIB headquarters, and the notorious Evin Prison. Massive explosions rocked the capital, with colossal plumes of smoke rising above Tehran’s skyline. Casualties are feared as Israel escalates its response to Iran’s earlier barrage, pushing the two nations closer to full-blown war.
