Germany Prepares for World War III: Big Bunker Expansion, €10B Defense Push, Alarming 2029 Deadline

Germany is ramping up civil defense efforts like never before, with officials warning the country must be "ready for war" by 2029. From underground garages and metro tunnels turning into bunkers to emergency siren upgrades and wartime hospital prep, Berlin is preparing for the unthinkable—a direct confrontation with Russia. Civil defense chief Ralph Tiesler has called for at least €10 billion by the end of the decade, as military spending soars and public fear rises. But is this genuine preparedness or fear-fueled militarization? And how is Moscow responding? #Germany #Russia #WW3 #Bunker #CivilDefense #Berlin #NATO #MilitaryBuildUp #WorldNews #Geopolitics #GermanyVsRussia #WarPreparation #Bundeswehr #EuropeanDefense #ColdWar2 Also Read Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc Germany Reaffirms Strong Support for India in Combating Terrorism, Says FM Johann Wadephul :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/germany-supports-india-fight-against-terrorism-011-4175297.html?ref=DMDesc Germany: Knife Attack At Train Station In Hamburg City, 12 Injured, 3 Critical :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/germany-knife-attack-at-train-station-in-hamburg-city-12-injured-3-critical-4162369.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.336~ED.102~

Elon Musk’s Dad PRAISES Putin in Moscow, Errol Musk Calls Putin ‘Impressive’, SLAMS U.S. Media

Errol Musk, father of billionaire Elon Musk, has sparked controversy by praising Russian President Vladimir Putin and defending his trip to Moscow for the Future Forum 2050. Despite warnings from family members, Musk said he admired Putin’s resilience and dismissed Western media portrayals of Russia as “complete nonsense.” The statement, widely reported by Russian state media, comes amid strained U.S.-Russia relations and has raised questions about the Musk family’s public image. Errol's remarks add unexpected fuel to already complex geopolitical and media narratives. #ErrolMusk #ElonMusk #RussiaVisit #PutinPraise #FutureForum2050 #MuskControversy #RussiaUSRelations #WesternMedia #Geopolitics #Putin #RussianPolitics #MuskFamily #RussiaTrip #MediaNarratives #GlobalTensions #MoscowEvent #LeadershipCommentary #PropagandaWatch #USRussiaTensions #PutinAdmiration #RussianForum #ControversialVisit #MuskInRussia #ElonFamily #WorldPolitics #CurrentAffairs #TrendingNews #DiplomacyCrisis #InternationalRelations #PutinSpeech #ErrolInMoscow Also Read Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc Mike Johnson Dismisses Elon Musk's Criticism of Republican Tax and Budget Bill :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mike-johnson-downplays-musks-influence-on-republican-tax-bill-011-4175853.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc

‘Trump BETRAYED Us, Diverted 20,000 Missiles’ | Zelensky UNLEASHES on Trump

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a TV interview that the Trump administration diverted 20,000 anti-drone missiles, originally approved under Biden, away from Ukraine to the Middle East. Zelensky said Ukraine relied on these precision-guided weapons to counter Shaheed drone strikes, including a record 472 drones on June 1. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth cited urgency but skipped a major Ukraine meeting. Trump later resumed aid after Kyiv agreed to a ceasefire, sparking backlash over his stance to “let the war continue.” #Zelensky #Trump #UkraineAid #DroneWar #MiddleEast #MilitaryAid #ShaheedDrones #TrumpReturns #AntiDroneMissiles #UkraineCrisis #PeteHegseth #USUkraine #WarPolitics #CeasefireDeal #BreakingNews #UkraineWar #DefenseControversy #BidenVsTrump #WeaponRedirection #UkraineDefense #MilitaryShift #Geopolitics #TrumpPolicy #RussiaUkraineWar #USForeignPolicy #DronesInWarfare #ZelenskyReveals #MissileDiversion #AIDFreeze #TrumpControversy Also Read Protests Intensify In Los Angeles After Trump Deploys Hundreds Of National Guard Troops :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/protests-intensify-in-los-angeles-after-trump-deploys-hundreds-of-national-guard-troops-4175915.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.122~HT.408~

‘Zelensky or NATO?’ Russia Questions On Who Blocked Return Of Fallen Ukrainian Soldiers' Bodies

Russia has raised serious questions after Ukraine allegedly refused to receive over 6,000 fallen soldiers’ bodies offered in a humanitarian gesture. Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zakharova asked if Zelensky personally made the call—or if NATO intervened. Russia published 97 names to aid grieving families while accusing Kiev of hiding losses to avoid payouts. Ukraine denies stalling but hasn’t provided a new date. As talks in Istanbul stall, anger grows over the silence. Families remain in limbo, and the political blame game intensifies. #Zelensky #NATO #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #FallenSoldiers #WarCasualties #BodyExchange #Zakharova #Kiev #MilitaryLosses #RussiaFM #UkraineRefuses #NATOInvolvement #UkraineNews #HumanitarianCrisis #PrisonerExchange #WarUpdate #IstanbulTalks #UkraineConflict #MilitaryCoverup Also Read Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~

Kremlin SLAMS Trump In A FIERY Response To His ‘Kid’s Brawl’ Comment On Russia-Ukraine War

In a stunning Oval Office remark, U.S. President Donald Trump compared the Russia-Ukraine war to “two kids fighting,” saying it might be better to let them brawl before stepping in. The Kremlin responded sharply, calling the war an "existential issue" tied to Russia’s national security and future. As German Chancellor Merz urged U.S. intervention, Trump signaled a more hands-off approach. The latest Trump-Putin exchange reveals deep global divisions and raises questions about America’s role in ending the war.

“Let Them Fight For A While” Trump’s SHOCKING Comments On Russia-Ukraine War | Putin | Zelenskyy

In a dramatic analogy, U.S. President Donald Trump compared the Russia-Ukraine war to a children's brawl, saying it's better to “let them fight for a while” before peace is enforced. During his Oval Office meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Trump claimed acting like a referee, not a peacemaker. He also hinted at possible punitive actions against both nations if the war doesn't end, stating “it takes two to tango.” Merz, invoking D-Day history, urged Trump to use America’s power to stop Putin and bring peace to Europe. #TrumpUkraine #RussiaUkraineWar #DonaldTrump #TrumpPutin #LetThemFight #TrumpControversy #UkraineWar #PutinTrump #MerzTrumpMeeting #GermanyUS #OvalOfficeDrama #TrumpSpeech #GlobalTensions #WarInUkraine #TrumpAnalogy #WorldPolitics #UkraineCrisis #USRussiaTensions #EuropeanAllies #PeaceOrWar Also Read Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.102~

Zelensky's Bridge Attack Doomed: Traffic RESUMES On Crimea Bridge After Ukrainian Underwater Blast

Ukraine claims responsibility for a massive underwater explosion targeting the Crimea (Kerch) Bridge, using over 1,100 kg of TNT-equivalent explosives. Officials say the blast damaged a key underwater support structure, yet hours later, traffic resumed on the bridge. Built by Russia in 2018, the bridge is vital for military supplies to occupied Crimea. Independent analysts confirmed the blast’s location but questioned its impact. This isn’t the first strike — but was it effective? The bridge reopened shortly after, leaving doubts about the success of Ukraine’s latest attack. #CrimeaBridge #KerchBridge #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraineConflict #BridgeBlast #UkraineStrike #MilitaryNews #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #Crimea #TNTBlast #Explosives #UkraineIntel #WarUpdates #CrimeaTarget #KerchTraffic #UkrainianForces #RussianSupplyLine #StrategicStrike #WarAnalysis #DefenseNews #BridgeAttack #UkraineDefense #CrimeaHit #MilitaryBridge #RussiaAnnexation #CrimeaSymbol #KerchBridgeBlast #RussiaVsUkraine #BridgeDamage
