A captured Ukrainian soldier revealed NATO-assisted plans for sabotage at Russia's Kursk Nuclear Power Plant, involving planting explosives and blaming Russia for the detonation.
Russian officials, including Lt.
Gen.
Igor Kirillov, had previously warned of Ukraine's intentions to use a Dirty bomb.
The plan, personally overseen by Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrsky, aimed to contaminate large areas with radioactive material.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that Russia is amassing up to 100,000 troops near the eastern stronghold of Pokrovsk, signaling preparations for a major offensive. While Ukrainian forces push back in the Sumy region, Zelensky is pressing NATO allies to accelerate U.S.-made weapons deliveries and provide stronger long-term guarantees. Outlining three security pillars—sustaining Ukraine’s military, NATO-style commitments, and sanctions on Russia—Zelensky stressed that Ukraine’s future stability also depends on EU membership. Moscow, however, rejected the plan, warning foreign peacekeepers would be seen as intervention.

The United States has approved an $825 million arms package for Ukraine, marking its hardest response yet to Russia’s brutal strike on Kyiv that killed 19 civilians, including four children. The deal, announced by the Trump administration, includes 3,350 extended-range missiles, GPS systems, spare parts, and training support. Funding will be shared between NATO allies Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway, alongside U.S. foreign financing. Officials declared the sale a vital step to strengthen Ukraine’s defenses while signaling Washington’s resolve against Moscow’s escalating war. The move follows two July deals totaling over $650 million in aid, covering armored vehicles, air defense, and artillery support. With peace talks collapsing after Trump’s Alaska meeting with Putin, this deal underscores a shift from negotiations to hard power. Ukrainian President Zelensky warned that Putin “breaks every promise” and only responds with missiles, as the U.S. arms Kyiv for a long and dangerous war.

The prospect of a Putin-Zelensky peace summit has collapsed into chaos following Russia’s devastating strike on Kyiv that killed 19 people, including four children. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared there would be “no summit, only blood, missiles and broken promises,” while Ukraine retaliated with drone attacks on Russian oil refineries. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz bluntly confirmed there would “obviously” be no summit despite Donald Trump’s dramatic push after his Alaska meeting with Putin. Moscow insists talks can only happen after “tangible progress,” something Kyiv and NATO allies reject outright. The collapse highlights the crumbling state of diplomacy in Europe, where leaders now openly prepare for wider war. Trump had hoped to position himself as a peacemaker, but European officials dismissed his roadmap as unrealistic. With NATO deployments looming and Russia warning of escalation, the world faces a dangerous new turning point.

NATO Chief Mark Rutte, has delivered a stark warning to the West after Russia’s latest deadly strikes on Kiev. Speaking in Brussels, Rutte declared: “We cannot be naive about Russia,” emphasizing that Moscow remains an existential threat to European security. His words come as Ukrainian officials report heavy damage from missile and drone barrages across the capital, killing civilians and crippling infrastructure. Rutte, set to take over NATO leadership, is pushing allies to maintain unity and step up military support for Ukraine, warning that hesitation only strengthens the Kremlin. The statement signals a hardening Western stance amid growing concerns that Russia is expanding its long war strategy while testing NATO’s resolve. With Ukraine’s battlefield struggles and internal political rifts in Europe and the US, Rutte’s message is clear: NATO cannot afford illusions when facing Moscow’s aggression.

Russia has escalated tensions by bombing the Turkish-built Bayraktar drone factory in Kyiv, dragging NATO-member Turkey deeper into the Ukraine war. Two missiles struck the nearly completed facility, causing severe damage, according to Kyiv city council member Igor Zinkevich. The Baykar factory was designed to produce Bayraktar combat drones, widely used by Ukraine against Russian forces. Despite earlier strikes, Baykar had invested millions and trained staff for production. Moscow’s attack underscores its strategy to Cripple Ukraine’s drone industry as the war intensifies.

On the eve of his China visit, President Vladimir Putin warned the U.S. and the West against trying tocripple Russia’s economy with sanctions. Acknowledging recession risks due to oil curbs and the war in Ukraine, Putin emphasized Russia’s unity with China, declaring joint opposition to “discriminatory sanctions.” As the U.S. and Europe push for a Ukraine peace deal, Putin is instead rallying support from China, India, and Brazil.

Ukraine marked its Independence Day with a wave of bold drone strikes deep inside Russian territory, sparking massive fires at an oil refinery and a gas terminal in Ust-Luga. One drone even hit the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant, triggering a blaze though no radiation leak was reported. The strikes came just days after Russia dismissed U.S.-brokered peace efforts between Putin and Zelensky, signaling a dramatic escalation in the three-and-a-half-year war. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared that Ukraine is “not a victim but a fighter,” as Russia pushed on with its own overnight barrage of missiles and Iranian-made Shahed drones. With tens of thousands dead, millions displaced, and energy infrastructure under siege, the conflict shows no signs of ending. Ukraine’s drone campaign is not just military—it’s economic warfare, aiming to choke Moscow’s vital fuel revenues that fund the grinding war.
