Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has announced the departure of the defence minister Oleksiy Reznikov, calling for "new approaches" a year and a half into Russia's invasion.
The announcement came hours after Ukraine fought off an attack by Russian drones in the southern Odesa region early yesterday that hit a Danube port on the border with NATO member Romania.
In his nightly televised address to the nation yesterday, Zelenskyy said that the minister will be relieved of his duties this week His removal comes in the wake of a number of corruption scandals involving Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense.
Infact, Zelensky’s promise to rid the government of corruption was one of the reasons behind his rapid ascent into power in 2019.
Now, Zelenskyy has nominated Rustem Umerov, the former people’s deputy of Ukraine, to become the new defense minister.
President Zelenskyy thanked Prime Minister Modi for his Independence Day wishes, expressing hope for India's role in ending the conflict through diplomacy. PM.. IndiaTimes
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.

World powers are aligning against the U.S. as Trump’s aggressive tariff policies fuel backlash. At the upcoming SCO summit in China, leaders including Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Narendra Modi will present a united front against Western dominance. Trump’s penalties on India and Brazil have only pushed them closer to the anti-Western bloc, with Russia emerging as the common thread binding these nations. Experts warn that tariffs may not only damage U.S. economic ties but also accelerate the rise of a multipolar world order.

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.

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.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged Russia to resume stalled peace talks, proposing a new round of negotiations next week. This plea follows a devastating Russian drone and missile strike on Odesa that killed at least one and injured six others. Zelenskyy confirmed that National Security and Defence Council head Rustem Umerov extended the offer, while reiterating his own readiness for a face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin. Meanwhile, tensions escalate as U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 50-day ceasefire ultimatum to Moscow, threatening harsh sanctions and vowing to boost arms support for Ukraine. Russia has not formally responded to the proposed talks, while Kremlin and military officials dismissed Western pressure as "blackmail." Despite diplomatic overtures, exchanges of fire continued on both sides, raising fears of further escalation in Europe’s deadliest conflict since WWII.

The much-anticipated trilateral meeting between Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Volodymyr Zelensky has collapsed, and Trump has now revealed the shocking reason. Speaking after his separate meetings with Putin in Alaska and Zelensky in Washington, Trump claimed Putin refused to sit down with Zelensky simply because “he doesn’t like him.” The blunt admission has rattled Washington and global capitals alike, raising new doubts about whether diplomacy can move forward in resolving the grinding Russia-Ukraine war. Critics say Trump’s revelation highlights how personal grudges and animosities between leaders are shaping high-stakes global negotiations. With no trilateral dialogue in sight, the war continues to escalate, and both Kyiv and Moscow are recalibrating their strategies. Trump’s casual phrasing — comparing Putin’s refusal to his own personal dislikes — has triggered outrage among observers who see it as trivializing one of the most urgent conflicts of our time.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney visited Kyiv on Ukrainian Independence Day, calling for an immediate ceasefire and supporting Kyiv’s calls for robust security guarantees. Speaking alongside President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, Carney condemned Russia’s aggression and emphasized that Ukraine and its Western allies—not Russia—should decide future security arrangements. The visit included a drone co-production agreement and the promise of over C$1 billion in military aid. Carney’s visit highlights Canada’s commitment to peace and NATO-backed collective defense, as global leaders continue exploring frameworks for lasting Ukrainian security.

Ukraine has issued a stark warning to Belarus amid fears that upcoming Russia-Belarus joint military drills could escalate the war. The Zapad-2025 exercises, set for September, will feature drones, electronic warfare, and Russia’s Oreshnik hypersonic missile—previously compared to a low-yield nuclear strike. Kyiv fears Belarus may provide direct support to Russia, with the border just 100 km away. NATO has responded with 30,000 troops deployed near Poland’s border, while Moscow accuses NATO of using the drills as a pretext for escalation.

Russia launched a massive 95-bomb barrage on Ukraine’s Odesa region, just a mile from NATO’s Romanian border. The strikes targeted oil and port facilities, shaking regional security and sparking fears of a nuclear flashpoint. Germany scrambled Eurofighter Typhoon jets from its base in Romania under NATO’s air policing mission, while officials confirmed no Russian projectiles entered alliance territory.
