Russia accuses Ukraine of chemical warfare after claiming to uncover drone bombs containing chloropicrin, a banned toxic agent, in Donetsk. Russian authorities say the devices, intended for UAV deployment, were found in a Ukrainian weapons cache and filed WMD-related charges. If verified, this would mark a dangerous escalation in the war. Ukraine has not responded to the allegation. Global watchdogs may now face pressure to investigate the use of banned chemical agents in the conflict.

Russia now claims full control of Ukraine’s Luhansk region—its first completely occupied territory since the 2022 invasion. Leonid Pasechnik, Moscow’s installed leader in Luhansk, declared the region “100% liberated” on Russian state TV. If confirmed, this marks a major shift in battlefield control. President Putin has rejected ceasefire calls and insists all four annexed regions—including Luhansk—will remain Russian forever. Ukraine, yet to respond, continues to reject all claims of Russian sovereignty over occupied territory.

Planned Parenthood is under serious threat as Republicans move closer than ever to cutting its federal Medicaid funding. A surprise Senate ruling has allowed the GOP to include the defunding measure in their sweeping megabill—without needing to overcome a filibuster. Democrats are outraged, warning it’s a direct attack on women’s health and reproductive rights. With $792 million in funding at stake, and abortion access on the line, the battle over Planned Parenthood is reaching a boiling point.

The U.S. State Department has responded sharply to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s claim that increased NATO defense spending will lead to the alliance’s collapse. Lavrov criticized the West's growing military budgets, warning it will destabilize Europe. The U.S. rejected the remarks, stating that enhanced European defense spending strengthens regional security and counters Russian aggression. As tensions rise, President Putin accuses NATO of hypocrisy, claiming these moves will ultimately harm the continent. The transatlantic alliance shows no signs of retreating under Russian pressure.

Following Russia’s largest aerial attack on Ukraine—over 500 drones and 60 missiles—President Zelensky has made an urgent plea to the U.S. and European allies for advanced air defense support. The strike injured civilians and destroyed residential infrastructure. Tragedy deepened with the death of Ukrainian F-16 pilot Maksym Ustymenko, who downed seven Russian targets. With three U.S.-made jets already lost, Ukraine’s air arsenal is thinning. Zelensky warns Moscow won’t stop unless its strike power is neutralized, as aid delays under Trump threaten Ukraine’s ability to defend itself.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has launched a scathing attack on French President Emmanuel Macron and German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, accusing them of attempting to revive Europe's imperialist past. Speaking at a diplomatic event, Lavrov warned that Western leaders were reverting to their “former instincts” of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between today’s political climate and Nazi-era atrocities.
He further stated that “German and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,” claiming that just as some “burned Jews,” others now “burn Russians.” Lavrov’s remarks come amid intensifying tensions between Moscow and the West over the war in Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing European militarization.
The inflammatory comments are expected to draw condemnation from European capitals but are in line with Russia’s narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism.

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has issued a stark warning: Ukraine joining NATO could spark a global war with Russia. Echoing Putin’s recent threats, Orbán says NATO expansion is a direct risk to peace in Europe. Hungary's foreign minister reinforced this stance, calling Ukraine's membership “impossible.” As NATO leaders push for more defense spending to counter Russia, divisions within the alliance deepen. While Europe arms up, Hungary distances itself—fearing the next move could ignite World War 3.
