Russia’s Defense Ministry confirmed a large-scale missile and drone strike on a military-industrial site in Kiev that manufactures drones and missiles. The attack also targeted a radar surveillance center and a US-made Patriot air defense system. The strike followed a surge in Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian territory. Moscow claims all targets were hit and insists its operations are limited to military sites. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s attacks have left civilians dead and injured, including children. Russia warns it will respond appropriately to continued UAV raids on its territory.

In a dramatic escalation, Russia’s Ministry of Defense reported shooting down 112 Ukrainian drones overnight across 13 regions, including Moscow, Crimea, and Tula. Air traffic was disrupted at major airports, and debris caused injuries and damage in Lipetsk. This wave is part of Ukraine's intensified drone campaign, with nearly 500 UAVs intercepted nationwide since Tuesday. The assault comes as Russia prepares for major wartime commemorations, raising concerns about air defense vulnerabilities and retaliatory responses in an increasingly volatile conflict zone.

Ukrainian prisoners of war were met with emotional reunions and national flags after being freed in the first stage of a major prisoner swap with Russia on May 23, 2025. Families wept and cheered as their loved ones returned, only hours before Russia launched a massive drone and missile strike on Kyiv, wounding at least 15 people. The exchange followed tense negotiations in Istanbul, with a second stage scheduled for Saturday. The joy of reunion was quickly overshadowed by renewed violence in Ukraine's capital, highlighting the fragility of the situation.

Russia and Ukraine have completed the second phase of a record-setting prisoner swap, with 307 soldiers returned to each side, the Russian Defense Ministry announced. The agreement, forged during landmark talks in Türkiye earlier this month, marks the largest exchange in the ongoing conflict. Russian soldiers were first taken to Belarus for medical and psychological support. With 1,000 POWs agreed to be exchanged from both ends, this massive humanitarian gesture signals rare cooperation amidst the conflict. The process is expected to continue in the coming days.

The Trump administration has fired over 100 National Security Council (NSC) staffers in a surprise Memorial Day shake-up, reportedly aimed at dismantling what insiders call the “Deep State.” Employees received just 30 minutes to vacate offices, affecting major directorates including Ukraine and Indo-Pacific. Acting NSA Marco Rubio is spearheading the effort to streamline policy control, slashing NSC staff from over 300 to just 50. Officials say the move reduces bureaucracy and restores NSC’s original purpose. This is among the most sweeping reorganizations of Trump’s second term so far.
