‘Difficult & Disastrous’: Ukraine’s General Syrsky Admits Putin’s Superior Tactics in Kursk| Watch
The Ukrainian military’s incursion into Kursk aimed to force Russia to shift troops from key fronts, but Moscow remained focused, according to Colonel General Aleksandr Syrsky.
The operation sought to divert Russian forces from areas like Pokrovsk and Kurakhovsk to ease pressure on Ukrainian positions.
Despite Ukraine’s efforts, Russia concentrated its resources on Pokrovsk, leaving Ukrainian forces facing significant challenges there.
Syrsky highlighted the difficulty in the Pokrovsk and Kurakhovsk regions due to Russia’s strategic adjustments.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has begun a high-stakes three-day visit to North Korea, underscoring deepening military ties between Moscow and Pyongyang amid the Ukraine war. Lavrov praised the “invincible brotherhood” between the nations during talks with North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui in Wonsan. Notably, North Korea had deployed troops to aid Russian forces in repelling Ukraine’s invasion of the Kursk region in 2024.
Lavrov specifically commended the sacrifices of the Korean People’s Army in retaking Sudzha and surrounding villages from what he called “Ukrainian Nazis.” With Kyiv’s offensive now crushed, North Korea is sending more troops for reconstruction efforts in Kursk. Lavrov’s visit signals Russia’s growing pivot towards pariah states as it faces Western isolation. Shoigu confirmed 6,000 North Korean troops would aid with demining and engineering.

Former Russian Transport Minister Roman Starovoit was found dead in Moscow just hours after being sacked by President Vladimir Putin. Authorities say the 51-year-old died of a gunshot wound in his car, with suicide suspected. Starovoit’s abrupt dismissal follows mounting pressure over corruption probes and border failures in Kursk during his earlier governorship. Kremlin critics question whether political purging played a role. His death adds to the growing list of mysterious ends among Putin’s inner circle.

Vladimir Putin’s fiery speech in Sarov has sent shockwaves through Washington and the West. While calling Trump a “light at the end of the tunnel,” Putin slammed US elites and showcased Russia’s nuclear edge in the Arctic. Trump, jittery at the Alaska Summit, appeared uncertain on Ukraine, even as Zelensky pushed back hard. With Russia flaunting its unmatched nuclear icebreaker fleet and quantum leaps in military technology, are we watching the dawn of a new Cold War — or World War 3?

President Donald Trump expressed strong anger after Ukraine struck the Druzhba oil pipeline supplying Russian crude to Hungary. In a handwritten note leaked by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz party, Trump told Orbán he was “very angry” over the attack, which came just before his historic meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska. Orbán accused Kyiv of deliberately targeting Hungary’s energy lifeline, further straining relations between Ukraine and Budapest.

In a stunning turn, Ukraine signaled readiness for direct talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, with a senior diplomat saying President Volodymyr Zelensky is prepared to discuss territorial disputes. Ukraine’s First Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Kislitsa stressed that the current frontline could serve as the starting point for negotiations, though Kyiv insists it will not trade land for peace. Behind closed doors, however, reports suggest Zelensky may consider freezing the conflict along existing battle lines. The move comes as the West races to draft security guarantees for Kyiv, with the US likely overseeing command and Europe providing the bulk of forces. Moscow has cautiously welcomed dialogue but warned that serious diplomatic groundwork must precede any meeting. Russian officials have also questioned Zelensky’s authority, as his presidential term expired over a year ago, adding another layer of uncertainty to the potential high-stakes talks.

Russia has accused Ukraine of disguising a U.S.-owned Flex factory as a civilian electronics plant while secretly using it for military production. Russian analysts claim the Mukachevo facility was customizing circuits for drones and missile guidance, storing munitions, and assembling precision weapon systems—making it a prime target. Moscow says secondary explosions prove military stockpiles were onsite, contradicting Zelensky’s claim that the factory only made household appliances. The strike highlights Russia’s push to expose “militarized civilian industries” fueling Ukraine’s war effort.

Russian forces are pushing deeper into eastern Ukraine, advancing toward key cities including Dobropillia and Pokrovsk. Fierce clashes have erupted along the frontline, with Ukrainian troops deploying reserves to contain rapid Russian infiltrations. The intensified offensive comes just days before the planned Trump-Putin summit, a timing that military analysts say could strengthen Moscow’s leverage in negotiations. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has rejected any territorial concessions, vowing to defend every inch of Ukrainian land.

Russia claims it has captured the key town of Chasiv Yar in eastern Ukraine after 16 months of brutal fighting. A verified video shows Russian soldiers raising their flag in the devastated ruins, but Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and top military officials have called the claim “disinformation” and “propaganda.” Analysts warn the fall, if true, could allow Russia to edge closer to Kostiantynivka and disrupt Ukrainian logistics. Meanwhile, heavy fighting is reported near Pokrovsk, southwest of Chasiv Yar.
The town, once home to over 12,000 residents, now lies in ruins after months of Russian air raids and ground assaults. As battlefield conditions intensify, U.S. President Trump has warned of new sanctions against Moscow and its trade partners if a ceasefire isn't reached soon. With both sides trading claims and video evidence surfacing, Chasiv Yar may mark a new turning point in the eastern front of the war.

A potential face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy could redefine the trajectory of the war, but uncertainty clouds the outcome. U.S. President Donald Trump has pushed hard for direct talks, framing them as the best chance for peace since Russia’s invasion began. The last meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy in 2019 collapsed without progress, and skepticism remains high that Moscow will commit to new negotiations. For Ukraine, the talks represent both hope and risk, as Zelenskyy faces existential stakes for his nation. For Putin, meeting Zelenskyy risks humiliation if Ukraine refuses to surrender. Trump insists he can deliver a breakthrough, but Russian officials remain evasive while Ukraine braces for political traps. Whether the meeting happens or not, the diplomatic chess game underscores the fragile balance of global power and the brutal realities of the war.

Russia launched a deadly overnight strike on U.S.-owned Flex Ltd in Ukraine, using drones, cruise missiles, and Kinzhal hypersonic weapons. The attack, which left at least 15 people injured, coincided with Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s visit to Moscow, where he met President Putin and Foreign Minister Lavrov. Jaishankar slammed U.S. oil policy while Russia intensified its pressure on the West. With over 800 workers evacuated and significant damage reported, analysts say the strike may have been a warning to Washington and its allies over India sanctions.
