Russia Victory Day Parade: Vladimir Putin Vows Revenge; Flaunts Missiles, Drones in Moscow
President Putin's Victory Day address emphasised Russia's resilience and commitment to its armed forces amidst ongoing conflicts, including in Ukraine.
However, this year's parade featured only one tank, symbolising Russia's military presence.
Putin also criticised Western nations for colonial policies, while the parade showcased a display of nuclear warheads and various weapons systems. The event commemorated the victory over Nazi Germany in 1945, with over 300 cities participating in ceremonial parades across Russia.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has ratified a new law allowing certain prisoners to be paroled if they agree to enlist in the country's military. This legislation, aimed at bolstering Ukraine's military ranks, comes in response to the significant challenges the nation faces in its conflict with Russia. The details of the new law were published on the official website of the Ukrainian parliament, the Verkhovna Rada.
Initially submitted to the legislature in March, the bill is part of a broader effort by Ukraine to replenish its military forces. The legislation enables Ukrainian inmates to voluntarily enlist on a contractual basis and serve as long as martial law is in effect. The law specifically applies to convicts with three years or less remaining on their original prison sentences.

In a critical escalation on Ukraine's northeastern front, Russian troops have made significant advances in the Kharkiv region, expanding the combat zone by approximately 70 kilometers. Ukrainian Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyi warned of imminent "heavy battles" as Russian President Vladimir Putin declared the establishment of a "buffer zone" to protect Russia's border regions. The offensive, which began last Friday, has strained Ukrainian defences, already stretched thin over a sprawling front. During a visit to China, Putin linked the offensive to ongoing Ukrainian shelling of Russian border areas, justifying the creation of the buffer zone. A recent Russian missile strike in Kharkiv killed two and injured 25, highlighting the conflict's toll. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated that Ukrainian forces have stabilized the front despite losing control of 12 villages.

Ukraine's intelligence chief, Kirill Budanov, has openly acknowledged the worsening situation in the country, particularly in the north, where Moscow has seized multiple villages in the Kharkiv region. With a shortage of manpower and delays in Western military aid, Ukraine's military is facing a critical situation. Budanov warned that Russia's next incursion is imminent, putting further strain on Ukrainian forces. Despite efforts to redirect troops, the frontline remains precarious, with Budanov expressing concern about the country's defense capabilities.

Amidst the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, Ukraine's military reports record casualties on the Russian side, with 1,740 troops lost in a day, totaling approximately 484,030 casualties since the invasion began. Equipment losses are significant, including 30 tanks and 42 armoured vehicles in 24 hours. Despite challenges in verifying figures, the war's impact is undeniable as it enters its third year, exacerbated by Russia's new offensive. Estimates vary, with the UK suggesting over 465,000 Russian casualties. Moscow remains tight-lipped on losses, while Ukraine's President cites 31,000 Ukrainian troops killed. Fluctuations in casualties occur, with a recent focus on the Kharkiv region. Urgent calls for a peaceful resolution and international intervention echo as civilians suffer amidst the conflict's brutality.

Russian authorities reported that at least eight people were injured in Ukrainian attacks in and around the western Russian city of Belgorod. The assaults occurred as the nation commemorated the 79th anniversary of the Soviet Union's triumph over Nazi Germany. Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov of the Belgorod region disclosed on Telegram, "The city of Belgorod and the Belgorod district faced an air attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, resulting in direct hits on residential apartment buildings and vehicles." He further stated, "Preliminary reports indicate eight casualties, including seven adults and one child." In response to the heightened tensions, Belgorod, along with other Russian regions bordering Ukraine, has scrapped its military parade and other Victory Day celebrations.
