Patriot & Stinger Missiles Halted In Poland As US Freezes Major Arms Shipment To Ukraine |US-Ukraine

In a stunning development, the U.S. has halted a critical weapons shipment to Ukraine that had already been staged in Poland, according to a bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal. The cache includes over two dozen PAC-3 Patriot missiles, more than two dozen Stinger air-defense systems, Hellfire missiles, and 90+ AIM air-to-air missiles designated for Ukraine’s F-16 fighter jets. U.S. administration and congressional officials reportedly confirmed the freeze, which aligns with the ongoing strategic review under the “America First” doctrine. The move comes amid rising Ukrainian frustration, with officials accusing Washington of endangering their defense readiness. The freeze has triggered intense geopolitical anxiety, with Kyiv urging clarity while Moscow eyes an advantage. #Ukraine #USWeaponsAid #PatriotMissiles #StingerMissiles #HellfireMissiles #F16 #UkraineWar #Poland #TrumpDoctrine #AmericaFirst #Kyiv #Biden #AIMMissiles #MilitaryFreeze #USUkraineTensions #DefenseAid #MissileShipment #Zelensky #NATOSupport #WSJ ~HT.410~ED.102~

Another MAJOR WIN For Putin As Russian Flag Flies Over Melovoye, Ukraine Troops Pushed Back Again [Video]

Another MAJOR WIN For Putin As Russian Flag Flies Over Melovoye, Ukraine Troops Pushed Back Again

Russian troops have reportedly taken control of Melovoye in Ukraine’s Kharkov region and raised the Russian flag over the liberated settlement. According to military sources, servicemen from the 83rd Motorised Rifle Regiment and 72nd Motorised Rifle Division were involved in the offensive. The operation, part of a larger strategy to push Ukrainian forces away from Russia’s border, aims to establish a “security zone” to safeguard civilians in nearby Russian regions. The Sever Group of Forces, supported by assault units, has gradually advanced through fortified positions, capturing both equipment and Ukrainian personnel. The symbolic act of hoisting the flag signals growing Russian control in strategic settlements near the front. This development underscores the intensifying nature of ground operations along the Kharkov front, as Russia presses to fortify its territorial gains. #RussiaUkraineWar #Melovoye #KharkovRegion #RussianArmy #UkraineFrontline #SecurityZone #RussianFlag #BorderOffensive #UkraineWar2025 #SeverGroup #RussianAdvance #WarTrophies #AFUCaptured #RussianMilitary #KharkivOffensive #GroundOperations #UkraineConflict #FlagRaised #EasternFront #RussiaUkraineUpdate ~HT.318~ED.346~

BREAKING: Trump CALLS Putin To Decide Ukraine's Future | U.S Ready To Accept Russian Victory? [Video]

BREAKING: Trump CALLS Putin To Decide Ukraine's Future | U.S Ready To Accept Russian Victory?

In a stunning development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced he will speak with U.S. President Donald Trump by phone. The announcement came during a business forum on July 3, 2025, with Putin offering no details on the agenda before leaving abruptly for the call. Minutes later, Trump confirmed the 10 AM ET conversation on social media, sending shockwaves through the international community. This high-stakes call comes at a critical moment in the Russia-Ukraine war. Russian forces have been making significant territorial gains, recently claiming full control over the strategic region of Luhansk. This major blow to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's government has been exacerbated by a slowdown in crucial military support from the United States. Moscow has intensified its aerial attacks, and the geopolitical landscape appears to be shifting, with both NATO and the U.S. seemingly easing their harsh rhetoric against Putin's actions. Speculation is now rampant over the purpose of the Putin-Trump discussion. Key questions remain unanswered: What will they discuss? Will this call formalize a Russian victory and signal the end of the war? This move is particularly significant given Trump's previous vow to end the war in "24 hours," a promise he has struggled to fulfill since taking office. The world is watching to see if this phone call will reshape global security and determine the final fate of Ukraine. #PutinTrumpCall #RussiaUkraineWar #DonaldTrump #VladimirPutin #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Ukraine #Zelenskyy #NATO #USPolitics #OneindiaNews Also Read Ukraine Confirms F-16 Loss, Pilot Killed While Intercepting Russian Missiles And Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-confirms-f-16-loss-pilot-killed-while-intercepting-russian-missiles-and-drones-7786265.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Unleashes Record Overnight Drone Attack On Ukraine Amid Peace Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-unleashes-record-overnight-drone-attack-on-ukraine-amid-peace-talks-4176255.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 ~HT.410~ED.420~

Elon Musk Sets GOP On Fire: Backs ‘Loser’ Massie To Humiliate Trump In Revenge Power Play

A political firestorm has erupted after Elon Musk publicly declared his support for Rep. Thomas Massie, a Republican from Kentucky who has drawn the ire of Donald Trump. Massie, known for opposing Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill and calling out recent Iran strikes as unconstitutional, now finds himself targeted by Trump in a fiery GOP primary feud. Trump labeled Massie a “pathetic loser” and vowed to campaign hard against him. However, Musk’s financial support and vocal backing on X could change the game. Former Rep. Justin Amash and grassroots conservatives have also rallied behind Massie, portraying him as a principled fiscal conservative resisting bloated spending. With nearly $309K raised in just a week, Massie’s campaign gains momentum amid the MAGA-driven backlash. The battle now highlights a deeper rift in the Republican Party — between loyalty to Trump and commitment to independent conservative values. #ElonMusk #TrumpVsMassie #GOPCivilWar #ThomasMassie #BigBeautifulBill #RepublicanPrimary #TrumpAttack #FiscalConservative #GOP2025 #USPolitics #CongressNews #ElonX #MAGA #GOPDrama #Massie2025 #RepublicanFeud #JustinAmash #TrumpTruthSocial #PrimaryBattle #SwampWars ~HT.408~

TORCHES Democrats at Iowa Rally After $4.5T 'Big Beautiful' Bill Passes — 'They will Regret..'

U.S President Donald Trump touched down in Iowa for a fiery rally just hours after Congress passed his $4.5 trillion ‘Big Beautiful Bill’. In front of a raucous crowd at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, Trump celebrated the massive tax cut and border security package — calling it the biggest legislative win of his presidency. Trump slammed Democrats for voting against the bill, warning they will “regret this forever.” The former president praised Republicans for delivering on core promises and said the legislation will launch the U.S. into “a rocket ship economy.” With 2024 behind him and 2028 in sight, Trump declared that this victory marks a turning point in America’s future.
