Status of Bakhmut remains unclear as Kyiv counters Russian claims
The town in the Donetsk region has become a symbol of Russia’s war of attrition, as its ongoing offensive has been met with fierce Ukrainian resistance.
Vladimir Putin is left fuming as NATO allies and Norway push through a staggering $58 billion aid package for Ukraine, openly defying the Kremlin’s threats against further support. The massive lifeline strengthens Kyiv’s war chest at a critical moment in the conflict, while Moscow warns of “grave consequences.” The move highlights NATO’s growing defiance and escalates tensions in the already volatile standoff with Russia.

Donald Trump declared that the U.S. is no longer directly paying Ukraine but instead profits from arms sales routed through NATO allies. Speaking at the White House, Trump emphasized that NATO partners fund and supply ammunition to Kyiv, while the U.S. benefits from the transactions. He praised President Zelensky, calling him “the greatest salesman,” during their second meeting this year. Trump’s remarks signal a shift in Washington’s Ukraine strategy, stressing NATO’s financial burden and America’s transactional approach to global security.

Ukraine has revealed an upgraded version of its Neptune missile, the same weapon that sank Russia’s Black Sea flagship Moskva in 2022. The new Neptune boasts a range of 1,000 km — tripling the reach of the original model — and potentially carries a warhead twice as powerful. Kyiv showcased the missile in a new Independence Day video, fueling speculation it was used in a May strike on Russia’s Novorossiysk naval port. Analysts suggest the upgrade includes larger fins, improved maneuverability, and possibly new guidance or infrared homing systems. The announcement comes as Russia parades its Oreshniks missiles, sparking a symbolic duel between Ukraine’s homegrown firepower and Putin’s arsenal. With Ukrainian production ramping up alongside the new 3,000 km Flamingo missile, Kyiv signals it no longer depends solely on Western weapons. The Neptune-Orsheniks face-off now symbolizes the technological arms race defining the Russia-Ukraine war.

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.

Vladimir Putin returned to Moscow after his summit with Donald Trump, as Russia announced fresh territorial gains in Ukraine. The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed the capture of Voronoy in the Dnepropetrovsk region and Kolodyazi in Donetsk, boasting of crushing Ukrainian defenses with drones, guided strikes, and relentless artillery fire. Moscow claims over 1,300 Ukrainian soldiers killed or wounded in the latest round of fighting, alongside the destruction of key ammunition depots and drone facilities. Official MoD footage shows Russian troops raising their flag over newly captured settlements as Putin projects strength on the world stage, while Kyiv reels from mounting battlefield losses.

Russian troops have reportedly stormed into Chasiv Yar after a grueling 16-month standoff, raising their flags over key positions in the strategically vital Ukrainian town. While Kremlin sources claim a breakthrough, Kyiv has denied the fall, stating that fierce resistance continues and the situation remains “fluid.” This town is critical for access to Sloviansk and Kramatorsk—major Ukrainian strongholds in Donetsk.

A Russian 500-kg aerial bomb reduced a bustling shopping center in Ukraine's Donetsk Oblast to rubble, killing two and injuring at least 28 on July 16. The heart of Dobropillia city was targeted in a broad daylight strike that left more than 54 shops destroyed, over 300 apartments damaged, and multiple cars obliterated. A massive fire erupted after the impact, prompting an urgent response from emergency crews.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky denounced the attack as "horrendous, dumb Russian terror" devoid of military rationale. This violent escalation comes just two days after U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 50-day ultimatum, warning of severe tariffs on Russia unless a peace deal is reached. Despite repeated warnings, Russia continues its brutal offensive with impunity. The civilian toll rises, as Ukraine's east remains under siege in the face of international deadlines and unrelenting destruction.
