Putin’s Forces Crush Ukrainian Sea Assaults: Crimea and Kherson Under Fire from Daring Drone Strikes
In a significant escalation of hostilities, the Russian military has successfully intercepted and neutralised a Ukrainian marine landing attempt near Kherson, along with a group of sea drones aimed at Crimea, according to a statement from Moscow's Defense Ministry.
The overnight incident saw Russian forces detecting a fleet of unmanned surface vessels (USVs) approaching the Black Sea Fleet base in Sevastopol.

Donald Trump has sparked fresh controversy by claiming the Ukraine-Russia war wouldn’t have happened if Russia remained in the G-8. In a bold statement, Trump called Russia’s removal “a big mistake” and blamed former U.S. President Barack Obama and former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau for pushing Moscow out. He argued that sidelining Russia has only made global diplomacy harder. Trump's remarks reignite debate over Russia’s G-8 expulsion after Crimea’s annexation and its broader impact on global peace and Western alliances.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has exposed Russia’s latest so-called “peace memorandum” as an outright ultimatum, stating Moscow demanded Ukraine recognize its occupation of Crimea and other regions, fully withdraw troops, and accept neutrality. The second round of Istanbul talks yielded humanitarian gains, like POW swaps, but no ceasefire. Zelensky vowed not to discuss sovereignty or concede territory. While Ukraine offered prisoner exchanges and EU/NATO alignment, Russia refused compromise. The U.S. remains frustrated with Moscow’s hardline stance amid ongoing war escalation.

Ukraine claims responsibility for a massive underwater explosion targeting the Crimea (Kerch) Bridge, using over 1,100 kg of TNT-equivalent explosives. Officials say the blast damaged a key underwater support structure, yet hours later, traffic resumed on the bridge. Built by Russia in 2018, the bridge is vital for military supplies to occupied Crimea. Independent analysts confirmed the blast’s location but questioned its impact. This isn’t the first strike — but was it effective? The bridge reopened shortly after, leaving doubts about the success of Ukraine’s latest attack.

Russia has confirmed that it carried out a massive high-precision strike on military-industrial targets in Ukraine’s capital, Kiev. The Defense Ministry said it hit missile, aircraft, tank, and shipbuilding facilities using missiles and drones. Additional targets included command centers and ammo depots. Ukraine claims 315 drones and seven missiles were involved. President Zelensky labeled it one of the largest strikes on Kiev, blaming the U.S. for inaction. Civilian injuries and infrastructure damage were also reported amid growing tensions and retaliatory attacks between both nations.

In a stunning escalation of the Ukraine conflict, Russian forces claim to have liberated five strategic towns in the Sumy and Donetsk regions over the past week. Moscow’s Defense Ministry reports an aggressive series of operations involving hypersonic Kinzhal missiles, precision UAV strikes, and the destruction of four US-made Patriot missile launchers.
With over 9,000 Ukrainian casualties allegedly inflicted across multiple battle groups, including thousands in Donetsk, the battlefield narrative is shifting dramatically. Russian forces also destroyed dozens of depots, radars, and artillery systems. The Black Sea saw naval drone threats neutralized, while Russian air defenses intercepted more than 2,000 Ukrainian UAVs. As Kyiv reels from the latest offensive and Western equipment losses mount, questions grow around NATO's next move and Ukraine’s capacity to hold the front.

In a dramatic escalation in the Russia-Ukraine war, Ukrainian forces have reportedly flattened a 5-storey apartment building in Russian-occupied Kherson using precision drone strikes. According to local sources and military footage, the building—believed to be housing Russian troops or military command elements—was completely destroyed in a targeted aerial assault.

Russia has launched over 100 drones and missiles in a coordinated overnight assault across Ukraine — striking major cities including Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipro, and more. At least 12 people were killed, including civilians in Sumy, Odesa, and Kherson, and 69 others injured, with three children among the wounded.
President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed that over 1,200 drones have been fired at Ukraine in the past 7 days, calling on international partners to urgently deliver air defense systems. Russian drones also targeted recruitment centers in Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia, while Ukrainian air defenses intercepted 75 drones using advanced electronic warfare.
This marks the deadliest barrage since Friday’s mega strike of over 530 drones. Is the war entering a more brutal phase? Will Ukraine’s allies respond fast enough?

On July 6, Russian forces launched a calculated drone strike on a military enlistment and recruitment office in Kremenchuk, located in Ukraine's Poltava region. This attack came just hours after Russia conducted one of its largest aerial assaults on Ukraine, involving 157 drones and four S-300 missiles that targeted key regions including Kharkiv, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, and Kyiv, causing significant damage and casualties.
Ukraine's Ground Forces have confirmed that the UAV strike in Kremenchuk hit the recruitment center and also damaged a nearby residential building. While no casualties were reported among military staff or civilians at the enlistment facility, the attack caused a fire at a private property and forced the closure of a major road in the city's central district, disrupting civilian life.
This military escalation occurs amidst a complex geopolitical backdrop. A recent phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and former U.S. President Donald Trump failed to secure a ceasefire. Reports suggest that Putin, believing he has the upper hand in the conflict, is unwilling to halt the offensive and "throw away his lead."
With the date for any further peace talks still undecided, Russia continues its relentless campaign, pounding Ukrainian cities with a massive barrage of missiles and drones. This latest attack on a recruitment center signals a strategic shift to Cripple Ukraine's ability to reinforce its front lines. Stay tuned to Oneindia News for the latest updates on the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Russia has launched its largest aerial attack on Ukraine since the war began, according to Ukrainian officials. Overnight, a staggering 537 aerial weapons — including 477 drones and decoys, and 60 missiles — were fired at targets across Ukraine.
Ukraine's air force reported that 249 were shot down and 226 were likely disrupted by electronic jamming. Yuriy Ihnat, spokesperson for Ukraine’s air force, called the strike “the most massive air attack” yet. Areas far from the frontlines, including western Ukraine, were hit. Poland scrambled jets to protect its airspace. Casualties included one dead in Kherson and six injured in Cherkasy, including a child. This assault follows a wave of similar attacks earlier this month, which had already been labelled the most powerful at that point in the war. Damage was reported in Kharkiv, where multiple residential buildings and houses were struck. The escalation signals a grim turn in the nearly three-year conflict.

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron’s bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September — making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestine’s 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macron’s decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a “reward for terror” and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it “reckless.” Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it “historic.” Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition.

In a bombshell claim, U.S. President Donald Trump declared that a face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky “is going to happen,” despite the Kremlin drawing a red line. Russia insists such a summit should only occur to finalize a peace deal — not as part of ongoing negotiations.
Trump, who has taken a hard stance on pushing peace since taking office in January, recently threatened 100% secondary tariffs on Russia’s trading partners if no resolution is reached within 50 days. Meanwhile, Moscow demands Ukraine lift martial law, recognize territorial losses, and hold overdue elections. The Kremlin remains skeptical about Zelensky’s legitimacy post his expired term. While Kyiv has repeatedly pushed for a summit, Moscow says a meeting is only possible once substantial progress has been made. As tensions rise, Trump’s bold assertion adds drama to the already fragile diplomatic theatre unfolding between Russia and Ukraine.

In a major setback for peace in Eastern Europe, the Kremlin has poured cold water on any hopes of a Zelensky–Putin summit in the next 30 days. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declared the meeting “unlikely,” citing irreconcilable differences between Ukraine and Russia’s draft proposals. This comes amid growing U.S. pressure, with President Donald Trump threatening sweeping 100% secondary tariffs on Russia if a peace deal isn't reached by the looming 50-day deadline.
While Zelensky has repeatedly offered to meet Putin face-to-face, Moscow continues to dodge direct engagement. Instead, Russia is sticking to a rigid draft memorandum first introduced in Turkey and refuses to consider Ukraine’s summit request before August-end. Trump, visibly frustrated, warned that the lack of progress could trigger severe economic consequences. With time running out and no summit in sight, the chances of diplomacy are fading fast.

The EU-China summit in Beijing ended early as tensions soared over China's deepening alliance with Russia amid the Ukraine war. Despite efforts to focus on trade, climate change, and rare earth supply cooperation, the shadow of Moscow loomed large. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned that Beijing's refusal to distance itself from Russia is now the main stumbling block in EU-China relations.
Chinese President Xi Jinping countered with calls for multipolar cooperation and downplayed Western concerns. While there was some progress on rare earth mineral exports and climate action, trade imbalances and mutual investigations remain flashpoints. The summit reflected a growing unease in Europe over China’s geopolitical positioning and its reluctance to leverage influence over Russia. Despite efforts to build trust, Brussels made it clear: Beijing’s stance on Ukraine will define the future of their relations. Dialogue continues, but the cracks are widening as global fault lines deepen.

In a dramatic escalation, Ukraine launched a wave of drone strikes on southern Russia, targeting Sochi — the famed Black Sea resort city — and its nearby Sirius technological and athletic hub. At least one woman was killed and another seriously injured when drone debris fell in Sochi’s central streets.
Meanwhile, another UAV slammed into an oil terminal in Sirius, triggering emergency evacuations of students and tourists. Local sources described scenes of chaos, with air raid sirens blaring and as many as 20 explosions echoing across the city. This latest strike comes on the heels of Russia and Ukraine's third round of peace talks in Istanbul, which failed to secure a ceasefire. Moscow’s proposal for brief humanitarian truces and a major POW exchange involving 1,200 prisoners each was met with skepticism from Kyiv. Tensions remain sky-high as drone warfare escalates far from the battlefield, threatening Russian civilians and infrastructure.
