With Russian forces intensifying their offensive in the eastern Donetsk region ahead of May 9th, tensions escalate amidst commemorations of World War II.
Stay informed on the latest developments in this volatile situation.
Russia has announced the first successful use of a naval drone in the Ukraine war, claiming it sank the Ukrainian reconnaissance ship Simferopol in the Danube Delta. Moscow released dramatic footage of the strike, showing the unmanned vessel ramming into the ship. Kyiv confirmed the attack, reporting one dead, several wounded, and others missing, though most of the crew survived. The Simferopol, Ukraine’s most advanced intelligence ship since 2014, was seen as a naval symbol—its loss delivering a major psychological blow.

Ukraine launched overnight strikes on key Russian oil refineries and military targets in a fierce act of retaliation after a devastating Russian missile barrage on Kyiv killed 14 people, including children. The Ukrainian military confirmed direct hits on the Kuibyshev refinery in Samara Oblast and the Afipsky refinery in Krasnodar Krai, crippling Russia’s vital fuel infrastructure. Explosions lit up the night as Ukrainian forces struck deep into Russian territory, signaling a dangerous escalation in the conflict. The strikes came just hours after Russian missiles reduced Kyiv neighborhoods to rubble, leaving families shattered. Analysts warn the attacks mark a new phase of Ukraine’s war strategy—targeting the heart of Russia’s energy economy to undermine its war machine. With Moscow vowing retaliation and Kyiv showing no signs of backing down, fears are rising that the war is spiraling into an even bloodier chapter.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan – 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 Trump–Putin 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 Russia’s economy is overheated and claimed Putin cannot sustain the Ukraine war beyond a year. He also questioned India’s 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 India’s deep-rooted closeness with Russia.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia, Political Analyst Dr. Ümit Nazmi Hazır, says tat there cannot be any solution without Ukraine’s representation and Europe’s opinion too. Dr. Umit express hope that there will be a second meeting soon referring to Putin’s comments that he is ready to meet Zelensky if the conditions are right. Political Commentator Cliston Brown reiterates the meeting will not yield anything, and even as there are meetings after meetings, the war continues and that is what Putin wants.

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.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will stand alongside Russia’s Vladimir Putin and China’s Xi Jinping at Beijing’s massive “Victory Day” military parade next week, marking a rare international appearance for the reclusive leader. China’s foreign ministry confirmed Kim’s attendance, calling it a symbol of the nations’ “traditional friendship.” The parade, marking 80 years since China’s war against Japan and the end of World War Two, will showcase thousands of troops, tanks, aircraft, and new anti-drone systems. For Xi, hosting Kim and Putin in Beijing is a major diplomatic win, signaling China’s central role in global geopolitics at a time when US President Donald Trump pushes for talks with both leaders. South Korea’s President Lee Jae Myung has also been invited, raising the possibility of a rare North-South encounter. The spectacle will be closely watched as China displays power and positions itself as the key player in Asia’s balance of power.

In a move set to escalate the conflict, the United States has approved the sale of 3,350 air-launched ERAM cruise missiles to Ukraine, according to the Wall Street Journal. With a range of up to 280 miles, the missiles could enable Kyiv to strike deep into Russian territory. Deliveries are expected by the end of 2025, though some shipments may arrive in just six weeks. Reports indicate Ukraine will need Pentagon approval before launching the weapons. President Donald Trump, who previously criticized unconditional aid to Kyiv, recently warned Ukraine has “no chance of winning” without long-range strike capability. NATO allies, especially France and Germany, are backing further weapons deliveries as part of post-war security guarantees, even as Russia insists Western military aid blocks peace. The missile deal highlights the growing stakes in Europe’s deadliest conflict since World War II.
