Ukraine war: Massive explosions reported across country including Kyiv
Russia unleashed a massive missile barrage on cities across Ukraine early Thursday, targeting energy infrastructure facilities in the first attack on such a scale in three weeks.
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.

Speculation is mounting that Russian President Vladimir Putin may deploy the deadly Oreshnik missile system against Ukraine, further intensifying the conflict. In response, the European Union has pledged to supply Kyiv with long-range missiles, signaling a major escalation in the arms race and deepening the battlefield standoff.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico met Russian President Vladimir Putin in Beijing, delivering a stark warning that Ukraine’s membership in NATO is unacceptable. While supporting Ukraine’s EU ambitions, Fico emphasized that NATO’s doors must remain closed, signaling growing tensions between Kyiv, Moscow, and European capitals. The meeting also touched on energy security, WWII memorial cooperation, and Russia’s ongoing responses to strikes on its infrastructure. Fico’s remarks have sparked debates across Europe as Zelensky’s NATO hopes face renewed challenges.

White House is pointing fingers at Europe, accusing EU leaders of obstructing Ukraine peace talks with what it calls “unreasonable” and “fairy-tale” demands. According to Axios, senior US officials say some European governments publicly endorse President Donald Trump’s peace drive while privately pushing Kiev toward unrealistic conditions, prolonging the war. Trump, fresh from his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin and meetings with Volodymyr Zelensky, is pressing for a lasting peace deal—not just a ceasefire. But frustration is mounting in Washington, with officials warning Europe against escalating while leaving America to pay the cost. The Atlantic reported that Trump has grown impatient with both Kiev’s unwillingness to make concessions and EU refusal to back what he calls a “realistic outcome.” Moscow, meanwhile, insists on neutrality for Ukraine, rejection of NATO expansion, and recognition of new territorial realities, including Crimea and Donbass as part of Russia.

A diplomatic drama is unfolding as US President Donald Trump declared that a trilateral summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky “will happen.” The statement comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he urged a one-on-one between Moscow and Kyiv first. While the Kremlin has not ruled out direct talks, it insists any bilateral must be the final stage once concrete progress is made. Meanwhile, Zelensky has reportedly asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “send the right signal” to Putin, pressing India’s weight as a potential mediator. Kremlin officials confirm flexibility on some issues, but warn NATO’s militarization of Ukraine makes peace elusive. With Putin currently in China, Trump’s bold promise, Kyiv’s appeals to Modi, and Moscow’s warnings against Western “peacekeepers” are shaping a high-stakes diplomatic gamble that could define the next phase of the Ukraine war.

Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region has come under a “massive attack,” according to regional governor Sergiy Lysak, who confirmed explosions in the key cities of Dnipro and Pavlograd. Residents have been urged to take shelter as Russian missiles and drones pound the region. Until now, Dnipropetrovsk had largely escaped the intensity of frontline battles, but the situation has shifted dramatically. Kyiv admitted that Russian forces have crossed into the region, while Moscow boasted of gaining a foothold there. This marks a dangerous expansion of the war, as the region is not among the five Ukrainian territories Russia has officially claimed. The attack raises fears of an intensified campaign in Ukraine’s industrial heartland, signaling that no part of the country is beyond reach. With explosions shaking Dnipro, Ukraine’s fourth-largest city, the strikes are seen as a chilling escalation that could redraw the battlefield once more.
