Anders Fogh Rasmussen, former NATO Secretary General, says linking security guarantees for Ukraine to a ceasefire risks extending the conflict. He says: “If we make security guarantees dependent on an end to the Russian attacks on Ukraine, the war will continue. We are giving Putin an incentive to continue the war to avoid western security guarantees to Ukraine.” Report by Covellm.

Dmitry Medvedev has warned Moscow may seize "valuables of the British Crown" in revenge for the UK using frozen Russian assets to fund military support for.. Sky News
Ukraine’s Independence Day was marred by escalating violence as Russia unleashed a massive drone and missile assault, killing two and injuring 33 in Kherson. Ukraine claims to have shot down 71 of 104 drones, but Moscow says Kyiv was the aggressor, targeting the Kursk nuclear plant and Russian energy sites. Fires erupted at facilities in Kursk and Ust-Luga, though no radiation leaks were reported. With Trump’s proposed peace talks stalling, the conflict now resembles a World War 3–like cycle of strikes and counterstrikes.

On Ukraine’s 34th Independence Day, Russian forces capture key villages in Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk, escalating the war on the eastern front. While Kyiv marks freedom from Soviet rule, the battlefield tells a harsher story, with Russian troops advancing meter by meter, Ukrainian defenses tested, and no breakthroughs from international diplomacy. From nuclear plant incidents in Kursk to stalled peace talks, the conflict continues to claim territory and intensify uncertainty for civilians and soldiers alike.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has begun a high-stakes three-day visit to North Korea, underscoring deepening military ties between Moscow and Pyongyang amid the Ukraine war. Lavrov praised the “invincible brotherhood” between the nations during talks with North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui in Wonsan. Notably, North Korea had deployed troops to aid Russian forces in repelling Ukraine’s invasion of the Kursk region in 2024.
Lavrov specifically commended the sacrifices of the Korean People’s Army in retaking Sudzha and surrounding villages from what he called “Ukrainian Nazis.” With Kyiv’s offensive now crushed, North Korea is sending more troops for reconstruction efforts in Kursk. Lavrov’s visit signals Russia’s growing pivot towards pariah states as it faces Western isolation. Shoigu confirmed 6,000 North Korean troops would aid with demining and engineering.

Former Russian Transport Minister Roman Starovoit was found dead in Moscow just hours after being sacked by President Vladimir Putin. Authorities say the 51-year-old died of a gunshot wound in his car, with suicide suspected. Starovoit’s abrupt dismissal follows mounting pressure over corruption probes and border failures in Kursk during his earlier governorship. Kremlin critics question whether political purging played a role. His death adds to the growing list of mysterious ends among Putin’s inner circle.

Ukraine unleashed a sweeping overnight drone offensive that struck deep inside Russian territory, killing at least three and igniting fires at key military and energy infrastructure sites. The strikes, claimed by Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces and intelligence agency SBU, highlight Kyiv’s expanding long-range drone warfare capabilities.
High-value targets included the Ryazan oil refinery near Moscow, the Annanefteprodukt oil facility in Voronezh, and the Primorsko-Akhtarsk military airfield—allegedly used to launch Iranian-made Shahed drones. In Penza, the Elektropribor electronics plant was hit, killing a woman and injuring two others. Fires and structural damage were also reported in Samara and Rostov, where casualties included an elderly man and a security guard. Russia’s defense ministry said 112 drones were intercepted during the 9-hour attack, but several breached air defenses. As Ukraine leans on asymmetric warfare, its drone campaign signals a bold shift in strategy—aimed at crippling Russia's war machine beyond the frontlines.

In a harrowing attack early Thursday morning, a Ukrainian drone crashed into a residential high-rise in Voronezh, southern Russia, injuring at least three children and displacing multiple families. Russian officials confirmed that air defenses intercepted five UAVs, but one struck the 16th floor of a building on Aivazovsky Street, causing a large explosion, property damage, and panic among residents. Two boys, born in 2009 and 2013, were hospitalized with head injuries, while a girl sustained cuts and was treated at the scene. Photos and videos of the aftermath—smoke, shattered windows, crushed vehicles—flooded Russian social media. This is the second drone attack on Voronezh in just three days. Tuesday’s larger strike injured 24 civilians, including four children. Russian authorities label these cross-border UAV raids as "terrorist attacks" by Ukraine, accusing Kyiv of deliberately targeting civilians. Emergency crews continue to provide shelter and aid to affected residents.
