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.

The world is on the brink as Russia unleashes a massive wave of missiles and drones on Ukraine, striking a U.S.-owned factory employing 600 workers and pounding major cities. This shocking assault comes just days after the high-stakes Trump-Putin Alaska meeting, now branded a complete failure. With talks between Trump, Putin, and Zelensky collapsing before they could even begin, fears of World War 3 are spiraling

Russia escalated tensions ahead of a key Trump–Zelensky–Putin tri-meeting by launching a deadly strike on U.S.-owned Flex Ltd. in Ukraine. The attack used a mix of drones, cruise missiles, and advanced Kinzhal hypersonics, overwhelming Ukrainian air defenses. At least 15 were injured as missiles tore through the Flex plant in Mukachevo, forcing 800 night-shift workers into shelters. Analysts warn Putin’s use of unstoppable hypersonic missiles signals a show of force meant to provoke Trump and humiliate Ukraine’s defenses.
