Exiled Ukrainian MP Artyom Dmitruk has accused President Volodymyr Zelensky’s government of orchestrating the assassination of far-right politician Andrey Parubiy, who was gunned down in Lviv on Saturday. Dmitruk claims the trail leads directly to Bankova Street, home of the presidential administration, denouncing the investigation as staged. Ukrainian police are probing possible Russian involvement, while Russian diplomat Rodion Miroshnik alleged Parubiy was eliminated to ease future peace talks. The killing has ignited fierce blame games, exposing deep divisions in Ukraine’s politics and war strategy.

U.S. President Donald Trump is signaling a tougher stance on Russia as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned that all options remain open for new sanctions amid Moscow’s intensified bombardment of Ukraine. Bessent called Putin’s actions “despicable and defiant,” marking the strongest hint yet of looming economic penalties. Despite Trump’s earlier hopes for diplomacy after his Alaska summit with Putin, frustration is mounting as Russian strikes escalate, fueling speculation that sanctions—or even broader confrontation—could push the U.S. and Russia closer to all-out conflict.

The United States has confirmed it is sending another Patriot air defense system to Ukraine to help the war-torn nation counter Russia's escalating aerial assaults. This decision comes as former President Donald Trump issued a strong statement, bashing Russian President Vladimir Putin for his aggressive military strategy. For months, Ukraine has pleaded for more advanced air defense, as the previous freeze in U.S. military aid allowed Russian warplanes to dominate the skies and launch devastating strikes with ballistic missiles like the Iskander and the hypersonic Kinzhal.
The Patriot system is considered Ukraine's only reliable and effective shield against these specific high-speed threats. Its advanced radar and PAC-3 MSE interceptors are critical for protecting high-value targets, including the capital city of Kyiv, and vital energy infrastructure that Russia has systematically targeted. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Ukraine needs more of these systems, as the current six to eight units leave vast areas of the country exposed to Russian attacks.
However, the deployment is not without risks. Each Patriot missile costs between $2-4 million, and Russia actively targets these valuable systems on the battlefield. The U.S. itself has a limited global inventory of Patriot units, balancing urgent requests from Ukraine with strategic commitments to allies in the Middle East and the South China Sea. This deployment signals a critical phase in the Russia-Ukraine war, testing both Ukrainian resilience and American strategic resolve.

White House is pointing fingers at Europe, accusing EU leaders of obstructing Ukraine peace talks with what it calls “unreasonable” and “fairy-tale” demands. According to Axios, senior US officials say some European governments publicly endorse President Donald Trump’s peace drive while privately pushing Kiev toward unrealistic conditions, prolonging the war. Trump, fresh from his Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin and meetings with Volodymyr Zelensky, is pressing for a lasting peace deal—not just a ceasefire. But frustration is mounting in Washington, with officials warning Europe against escalating while leaving America to pay the cost. The Atlantic reported that Trump has grown impatient with both Kiev’s unwillingness to make concessions and EU refusal to back what he calls a “realistic outcome.” Moscow, meanwhile, insists on neutrality for Ukraine, rejection of NATO expansion, and recognition of new territorial realities, including Crimea and Donbass as part of Russia.

A diplomatic drama is unfolding as US President Donald Trump declared that a trilateral summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky “will happen.” The statement comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he urged a one-on-one between Moscow and Kyiv first. While the Kremlin has not ruled out direct talks, it insists any bilateral must be the final stage once concrete progress is made. Meanwhile, Zelensky has reportedly asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “send the right signal” to Putin, pressing India’s weight as a potential mediator. Kremlin officials confirm flexibility on some issues, but warn NATO’s militarization of Ukraine makes peace elusive. With Putin currently in China, Trump’s bold promise, Kyiv’s appeals to Modi, and Moscow’s warnings against Western “peacekeepers” are shaping a high-stakes diplomatic gamble that could define the next phase of the Ukraine war.

Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region has come under a “massive attack,” according to regional governor Sergiy Lysak, who confirmed explosions in the key cities of Dnipro and Pavlograd. Residents have been urged to take shelter as Russian missiles and drones pound the region. Until now, Dnipropetrovsk had largely escaped the intensity of frontline battles, but the situation has shifted dramatically. Kyiv admitted that Russian forces have crossed into the region, while Moscow boasted of gaining a foothold there. This marks a dangerous expansion of the war, as the region is not among the five Ukrainian territories Russia has officially claimed. The attack raises fears of an intensified campaign in Ukraine’s industrial heartland, signaling that no part of the country is beyond reach. With explosions shaking Dnipro, Ukraine’s fourth-largest city, the strikes are seen as a chilling escalation that could redraw the battlefield once more.
