Russian strikes have killed 8 people and injured 35 across Ukraine just as President Zelensky arrived in Washington, D.C., for a high-stakes meeting with President Trump. Moscow continues to reject calls for an unconditional ceasefire, intensifying its use of drones and missiles. Cities near the Russian border, as well as the Sumy region, were hit, leaving civilians trapped under rubble and hospitals overwhelmed. The attacks come as Zelensky and European allies push for peace, while Russia demands territorial concessions, raising tensions ahead of the crucial summit.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has arrived in Washington, D.C., ahead of his crucial meeting with President Donald Trump. Speaking to the public and on social media, Zelensky emphasized the need for a lasting peace in Ukraine while warning against Russiaâs past aggression, including the 2014 seizure of Ukrainian territory that he called a âspringboardâ for further invasions. With the high-stakes summit looming, Zelensky remains firm on defending Ukrainian land and sovereignty, even as discussions focus on ways to end the ongoing war.

US President Donald Trump has delivered a blunt message to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ahead of their White House meeting. Trump declared that Ukraine must abandon its NATO ambitions and accept the loss of Crimea if it truly wants peace with Russia. The ultimatum comes just days after Trumpâs Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin, which he admitted brought âlittle progressâ toward ending the war. With Zelensky under mounting pressure and European allies resisting Trumpâs terms, Washington is bracing for a high-stakes clash that could reshape the future of the Ukraine war.

Saudi Arabia has signed over $6 billion in investment deals with Syria, signaling strong support for President Al-Sharaa amid ongoing unrest. The agreements cover energy, infrastructure, real estate, and agriculture, aiming to revive Syriaâs war-torn economy and create up to 200,000 jobs. Analysts see this as a major geopolitical shiftâand a blow to Israelâs regional influenceâas Tel Aviv has actively targeted Syrian positions during its civil war. The move comes after Saudi and Qatari efforts cleared Syriaâs World Bank debt, unlocking fresh international lending.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan â Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Trump used India as a Pawn to pressure Putin into a Summit. Vlada however clears that the sanctions on India were nothing personal against India and only a pressure-tactic against Putin, which played a role to some extent to get the Alaska meeting in place.

During the live coverage of the historic TrumpâPutin meeting in Alaska, a heated debate broke out between Burzine Waghmar SOAS, University of London, and journalist Nagen Singh of OneIndia News. Waghmar argued that Russiaâs economy is overheated and claimed Putin cannot sustain the Ukraine war beyond a year. He also questioned Indiaâs obsession with Moscow and the romanticization of Indo-Russian ties. Countering him, Singh accused the West of hypocrisy and blamed the UK and U.S. for Indiaâs deep-rooted closeness with Russia.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) released footage allegedly showing Hamas fighters taking control of aid containers in Gaza. The IDF accuses Hamas of looting humanitarian supplies meant for civilians. Hamas denies the allegation, claiming its personnel ensure secure aid distribution. The video follows a New York Times report where Israeli officials admitted no proof exists of systematic aid theft. With global pressure mountingâfrom the U.S. to Europeâthe war of narratives over Gazaâs humanitarian crisis continues to intensify.
