President Trump was not informed in advance about Ukraine’s bold drone offensive—Operation Spiderweb—which targeted four Russian air bases and damaged over 40 bombers. The White House, via Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, confirmed Trump’s exclusion following reports from Axios and Ukrainian officials. The June 1 operation, coordinated by Ukraine’s Security Service using smuggled FPV drones, struck deep within Russian territory. The revelation raises key questions about U.S.-Ukraine intelligence sharing and Trump’s role in global security decisions as he heads into the 2024 election spotlight.

In a historic deep-strike operation dubbed ‘Operation Spider’s Web’, Ukraine unleashed a covert FPV drone swarm targeting five Russian airbases deep inside enemy territory.

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.

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.

An explosion rocked Russia’s Belgorod region early Friday, derailing a diesel locomotive and halting rail traffic for hours. Russian officials, including Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov, confirmed the sabotage, which delayed even his own train. The blast follows a series of rail attacks in Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh, with Moscow accusing Ukraine of orchestrating "terrorist acts" to target infrastructure. President Putin condemned the incidents as attempts to derail diplomacy backed by the U.S., while analysts see Ukraine leveraging such disruptions to gain ground at the negotiation table.

Russian President Vladimir Putin held a rare and “constructive” phone call with Pope Leo XIV, accusing Ukraine of deliberately escalating the conflict by sabotaging civilian infrastructure inside Russia. Putin referenced recent train bombings in Bryansk and Kursk as acts of terrorism. He also updated the Pontiff on resumed peace talks with Kiev, the exchange of prisoners, and efforts to reunite displaced children.

He also made headlines by saying “Me and Melania talk about Putin,” calling the Russian leader “a tough guy.” With NATO coordination now taking center stage, is this a turning point in Trump’s Ukraine policy?
