Russia Accuses Ukraine of Selidovo Massacre: False Flag Allegations and War Crimes Surface
Russia has accused Ukraine of executing civilians in the Donbass town of Selidovo as part of a "false flag" operation aimed at framing Moscow for war crimes.
Witnesses suggest Ukrainian forces and foreign mercenaries were responsible for the killings.
The alleged massacre occurred just before Russian troops secured the town, raising questions about the credibility of the accusations.
This mirrors similar claims from earlier in the war, such as the Bucha killings, where Russia denied responsibility and accused Ukraine of staging the scene.
The United States has temporarily lifted certain sanctions on Russian transactions to facilitate historic peace talks in Alaska between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin on Aug. 15. The move, authorized by the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, allows specific transactions otherwise banned under Russia-related sanctions—strictly for organizing the summit.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may join follow-up discussions, with Trump expected to push Putin toward a Ukraine ceasefire. Reports suggest Trump will offer an economic package including access to Alaska’s natural resources, easing aviation sanctions, and rare earth mineral rights in occupied Ukrainian territories. The temporary authorization expires Aug. 20, with the White House calling the meeting a “listening exercise” and a potential breakthrough.

Ahead of the Trump–Putin summit in Alaska, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected any withdrawal from Donbas, warning it would allow Russia to launch a “third war” in Ukraine. He insists ceding territory would expose cities like Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv to occupation. While Putin is expected to push for Ukrainian withdrawal, Zelensky seeks EU security guarantees and ongoing Western support. U.S. officials say Trump aims to eventually broker direct talks, but no ceasefire proposal so far assures Ukraine’s long-term safety.

Just days before Donald Trump’s planned high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin, European allies have thrown a wrench into his peace plan. Leaders of the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Finland, and the EU issued a joint statement insisting that any talks with Russia must involve Ukraine’s leadership. President Zelensky has rejected Trump’s suggestion of possible territorial swaps, calling any deal made without Ukraine “dead decisions.” With Putin still refusing direct talks with Kyiv, tensions rise as the White House faces backlash over reports of concessions on Crimea and Donbas.

In a chilling new statement, the commander of Russia’s 98th Guards Airborne Division, Roman Ivanov, has revealed how Russian forces “liberated” the embattled town of Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk People’s Republic. The multi-phase operation included a dangerous crossing of the Seversky Donets-Donbass canal, brutal combat in a fortified industrial zone, and a final push through residential and forested areas. Ivanov describes the use of new tactics and modern hardware in a calculated assault that raises serious concerns over the intensity of Russia’s evolving battlefield strategy.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has dismissed the possibility of a US-brokered peace deal by announcing sweeping economic plans to rebuild Donbass and other newly integrated territories. In a bold move, Putin accused Kiev of decades of neglect, stating these regions were "abandoned" before Moscow’s intervention.
Now under Russian control, he pledged a full-scale economic reboot to “unlock their full potential” and ensure locals see “real improvement.” This strategic pivot not only bolsters Russia’s hold on the contested areas but also signals defiance to Western diplomacy, especially amid growing international pressure. The timing — as Western leaders push for de-escalation — reveals Moscow’s determination to consolidate gains through infrastructure, development, and economic integration.

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.

U.S. President Donald Trump has set off a storm of speculation after telling supporters, “I’m going to Russia,” just days before his planned August 15 meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska. This summit—the first face-to-face between the leaders since Trump’s return to the White House—was expected to focus on ending the war in Ukraine, with Trump hinting at a controversial “territory swap” proposal.
Alaska was chosen for its proximity to Russia across the Bering Strait, but Trump’s new remark has fueled rumors the venue could shift to Russian soil. For Moscow, the meeting is already being hailed as a diplomatic victory, marking Putin’s first U.S. invitation outside the U.N. since 2007. But if the location changes, the optics and stakes could transform overnight, raising fresh questions about U.S. strategy, Ukraine’s voice in negotiations, and Trump’s real intentions.

Russia has confirmed the burial of Colonel Sergei Ilyin, commander of the 155th Marine Brigade, days after reports emerged of a Ukrainian HIMARS strike that allegedly killed him along with 21 others at a command post in Kursk Oblast. Independent outlet Astra cites officials in Chuvash Republic, although the cause of death remains undisclosed. The same attack reportedly killed Major General Mikhail Gudkov.
The 155th Brigade has long been accused of war crimes in Bucha and Irpin, heightening the symbolic weight of Ilyin’s death. Ukrainian officials have not officially commented. Kyiv’s broader cross-border campaign in Kursk Oblast, launched in 2024, has claimed tens of thousands of Russian casualties. Russian forces, with help from North Korea, reclaimed much of the territory earlier this year. The Kremlin remains silent on the incident, even as its high-ranking military leadership continues to be decimated by precision Ukrainian strikes.
