Historic Swap:Russia and Ukraine Trade 230 Prisoners in UAE-Facilitated Exchange Amid Kursk Conflict
In a landmark development amid ongoing conflict, Russia and Ukraine have conducted a significant prisoner swap, exchanging 230 captives with the help of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
This historic exchange, facilitated by the UAE, marks the seventh mediation effort by the Gulf nation this year.
The swap involved 115 Ukrainian prisoners of war (POWs) and 115 Russian servicemen, the latter captured during Ukraine's recent incursion into the Kursk region.
This exchange, the first since the August 6 border incursion, underscores ongoing humanitarian efforts and the UAE’s critical role in facilitating dialogue between the warring nations.
President Trump has revealed that Iran received a fresh U.S. proposal for a new nuclear agreement. Urging swift action, Trump warned Tehran to “move quickly” or face serious consequences. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stressed the urgency, citing Iran’s 60% enriched uranium stockpile—just a short step from weapons-grade levels. With four rounds of backchannel talks in Oman and increasing pressure from Congress, the stakes are high. Trump claims Iran has “sort of agreed,” promising a future without “nuclear dust”—but Republicans are demanding a tougher stance.

Speaking in Qatar, former President Trump criticized U.S. defense contractors for producing drones at exorbitant prices—contrasting them with Iran’s $35K–$40K drones, which he called fast, cheap, and deadly. Trump recounted asking an American company to replicate Iran’s affordable drones, only to be presented with a $41 million model. His remarks spotlight rising defense spending and Iran’s rapid drone advancement, which has positioned the country as a major military force in West Asia. Trump’s comments reignite debate over U.S. defense efficiency, cost, and competitiveness.

During a Gulf tour that notably excluded Israel, President Donald Trump acknowledged the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, stating that “a lot of people are starving.” His remarks follow deadly Israeli airstrikes that have killed over 56 people since midnight and come amid warnings from aid agencies of severe shortages in food, water, and medicine. As Israel maintains a total blockade and cuts off aid, Hamas has rejected U.S. proposals, calling for immediate humanitarian relief as the baseline for ceasefire talks.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un visited the Russian Embassy in Pyongyang to honor Soviet soldiers, marking 80 years since Nazi Germany's defeat. Standing beside top officials and his daughter, Kim called Putin his “closest friend” and condemned the rise of “neo-Nazism” in Europe. He accused Ukrainian forces of invading Russia and confirmed that DPRK troops helped defend the Kursk region. Under a 2024 treaty with Russia, Kim warned that North Korea may intervene again militarily if Western-backed assaults continue.
