India DESTROYED 5 Pakistani Jets During OP Sindoor | Air Chief Confirms IAF’s Biggest Kill

In a historic first, Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh confirmed that India shot down five Pakistani jets during Operation Sindoor — the largest surface-to-air Kill in IAF history. Using advanced S-400 air defence systems, the IAF destroyed enemy aircraft, including an AEW&C at 300 km range, crippling Pakistan’s air defence and damaging multiple F-16s at Shahbaz Jacobabad airfield. Command centres, radars, and hangars were also hit as India asserted dominance during the 80–90 hours of intense fighting. This marks a new chapter in modern aerial warfare. #OperationSindoor #IAF #IndianAirForce #S400 #AirDefence #PakistanJets #IAFHistory #IndianMilitary #AirChief #AmarPreetSingh #AEW&C #F16 #ShahbazJacobabad #Airstrike #MilitaryNews #BreakingNews #DefenceUpdate #IndianDefence #SurfaceToAir #MilitaryHistory #CombatReport #IAFVictory #IndianSecurity #DefenceTechnology #AirForce #AerialCombat #IndiaVsPakistan #JetKill #LargestKill #OperationSindoorSuccess Also Read India Shot Down Pakistan's 5 Fighter Jets During Operation Sindoor: IAF Chief AP Singh :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-shot-down-pakistans-5-fighter-jets-during-operation-sindoor-iaf-chief-ap-singh-7824793.html?ref=DMDesc Rajasthan: Indian Air Force To Conduct Major Military Exercise From July 23 to 25 :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/rajasthan-indian-air-force-to-conduct-major-military-exercise-from-july-23-to-25-7807237.html?ref=DMDesc IAF Fighter Jet Crashes in Rajasthan’s Churu, Both Pilots Dead, Probe Ordered :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/iaf-fighter-jet-crashes-in-rajasthan-s-churu-probe-ordered-011-7795751.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~

Iran Vows to CRUSH Trump's Armenia–Azerbaijan Trade Corridor |Iranian Missiles Ready To Destroy Plan

Iran has issued a sharp “final” warning to block a U.S.-backed trade corridor through southern Armenia, part of a peace declaration between Armenia and Azerbaijan announced by Donald Trump. The route would give Azerbaijan direct access to Nakhchivan and Turkey, boosting regional trade while granting the U.S. exclusive development rights. Tehran has flexed military muscle to signal opposition, calling the plan a “graveyard for Trump’s mercenaries.” While analysts doubt Iran’s ability to militarily stop the corridor, tensions are rising across the Caucasus. #Iran #Trump #TradeCorridor #Caucasus #Armenia #Azerbaijan #USPolitics #Geopolitics #IranThreat #MiddleEast #USIranTensions #TradeWar #Diplomacy #PeacePlan #Tehran #Washington #MilitaryDrills #RegionalSecurity #IranMilitary #ForeignPolicy #TrumpPlan #GlobalTrade #SouthCaucasus #USForeignPolicy #BreakingNews #Turkey #Russia #Nakhchivan #BorderTensions #GeopoliticalShift #TradeRoute

Trump Wastes Millions To Welcome Putin But Nobel Prize Mission Fails | Trump’s Nobel Ambition Looms?

On August 15, 2025, Donald Trump staged a dramatic red-carpet welcome for Vladimir Putin at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska, hoping to cement his legacy as a global peacemaker. The high-stakes summit, costing millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars, ended without a ceasefire or territorial agreement, dashing Trump’s hopes of securing the Nobel Peace Prize. While Trump hailed “great progress,” critics slammed the event as a costly photo-op that boosted Putin’s global image without concessions. The Nobel ambition looms large—Trump himself admitted only Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky can decide the outcome. But Zelensky, absent from the talks, branded the summit a “failure,” warning peace must not come at Ukraine’s expense. For now, Trump’s Nobel dreams hang by a thread, dependent entirely on Zelensky’s approval of any deal. #TrumpPutinSummit #AlaskaSummit #TrumpNews #PutinNews #Zelensky #UkraineWar #TrumpNobel #PeacePrize #TrumpPutin #AnchorageSummit #USRussia #Geopolitics #TrumpUkraine #BidenVsTrump #WorldNews #UkraineCrisis #Trump2025 #PutinMeeting #DiplomacyFail #NobelPeacePrize ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.124~

Trump’s Body Language Fuels Failure in Talks | Putin’s BIG Win In Alaska Sparks MASSIVE Outrage

At the Alaska summit press conference, Russian President Vladimir Putin projected calm dominance while Donald Trump’s body language turned visibly awkward and stressed. Putin, stoic and composed, dismissed tough questions with subtle gestures and a poker-faced authority, even suggesting their next meeting in Moscow. Trump, however, appeared tense—his drooped shoulders, blushing, narrowed eyes, and erratic gestures clashed with his verbal claims of “great progress.” Analysts noted Trump’s handshakes, nervous protective postures, and abrupt responses as signs of vulnerability. Critics called the optics a “clash of alphas” where Trump yielded dominance, reinforcing the summit’s failure after closed-door talks ended without a ceasefire or peace deal. Despite millions spent on security and ceremony, Trump left Alaska looking unsettled, fueling perceptions that the summit legitimized Putin without concessions and left Trump’s Nobel Peace Prize dream in tatters. #TrumpPutinSummit #AlaskaSummit #PutinDominates #TrumpBodyLanguage #TrumpNews #PutinNews #UkraineWar #Geopolitics #TrumpNobel #AnchorageSummit #USRussia #DiplomacyFail #TrumpWeakness #PutinControl #TrumpUkraine #WorldNews #Zelensky #UkraineCrisis #TrumpSummit #PressConference ~PR.152~GR.122~HT.96~

$825 Million Arms For Ukraine! Trump’s BIGGEST Revenge Against Russia Yet? | Ukraine War Latest

The United States has approved an $825 million arms package for Ukraine, marking its hardest response yet to Russia’s brutal strike on Kyiv that killed 19 civilians, including four children. The deal, announced by the Trump administration, includes 3,350 extended-range missiles, GPS systems, spare parts, and training support. Funding will be shared between NATO allies Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway, alongside U.S. foreign financing. Officials declared the sale a vital step to strengthen Ukraine’s defenses while signaling Washington’s resolve against Moscow’s escalating war. The move follows two July deals totaling over $650 million in aid, covering armored vehicles, air defense, and artillery support. With peace talks collapsing after Trump’s Alaska meeting with Putin, this deal underscores a shift from negotiations to hard power. Ukrainian President Zelensky warned that Putin “breaks every promise” and only responds with missiles, as the U.S. arms Kyiv for a long and dangerous war. #Trump #Ukraine #Putin #KyivAttack #ArmsSale #UkraineWar #Russia #Missiles #Zelensky #NATO #DefenseDeal #WarEscalation #EuropeCrisis #MilitaryAid #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #UkraineRussiaWar #GlobalConflict #PeaceTalksCollapse #WeaponsSale ~HT.318~ED.194~
