Ukraine Behind Attack on Putin’s Men in Syria? Jihadists Allegedly Trained by Ukrainian Forces
In a controversial claim, the Kyiv Post reports that Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR) allegedly trained Islamist groups in Syria’s Idlib province, aiding them in attacking Russian forces.
The Khimik Group, an HUR Special Forces unit, reportedly provided operational training and tactics, including the use of drones.
Militants, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, recently launched their largest offensive in years, capturing parts of Aleppo before being pushed back by Syrian and Russian forces.
Moscow has not officially commented on the alleged involvement of Ukrainian operatives in Syria.
The development raises concerns over escalating proxy conflicts in the region.
A day after massive Russian strikes, Moscow now accuses Ukraine of sabotaging its own forces. Russian expert Andrey Marochko claims Kyiv lost nearly 4,000 troops in Lugansk alone within a week, including foreign fighters. Ukraine’s counteroffensives reportedly failed to stop Russian advances in Kharkov, Donetsk, and Lugansk. Russia maintains the initiative, launching precision strikes and accusing Ukraine of wasting troops and equipment. As Ukraine struggles to hold its defensive lines, Russia insists its objectives under the "special military operation" are steadily being fulfilled.

Suspects in the March 2024 Crocus City Hall massacre that killed 149 people have reportedly told Russian investigators that a Ukrainian state entity ordered the attack. According to interrogation transcripts cited by Russian media, the attackers — all Tajik nationals — said the assault was executed by ISIS-K but coordinated through a handler named "Saifullo" linked to Ukraine.
The suspects were allegedly promised $13,000 each and instructed to flee to Kiev after the attack. They claimed their weapons came from Ukraine, with operational guidance originating from Türkiye and Afghanistan. Ukraine has denied any role in the incident, though it has previously admitted to sabotage inside Russian territory. The attack, which also injured over 600 people, marks one of the deadliest in Russia in recent memory. Questions persist around the true orchestrators of the massacre and whether foreign intelligence or proxy actors were involved.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced Ukraine is now fully aligning with European Union sanctions on Iran. In a dramatic statement, Zelenskyy accused Iran of supporting external terror campaigns, engaging in brutal domestic repression, and forging a dangerous alliance with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The move marks Kyiv’s most aggressive stance against Tehran, extending Ukraine's sanctions policy beyond Russia to its geopolitical backers. Zelenskyy labeled the Iranian government “one of the most brutal regimes in the world” and said Ukraine would contribute to targeting Iranian individuals, companies, and entities involved in both weapons production and regional destabilization. He emphasized the global importance of sanctions against both Russia and its partners. The announcement comes as Iran and Russia deepen defense ties amid the ongoing Ukraine conflict.

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.

Ukraine’s Air Force confirmed the loss of an F-16 fighter jet and its pilot, Lt. Col. Maksym Ustimenko, during a major Russian airstrike. The jet was downed after intercepting seven Russian aerial threats. Overnight, Russia launched 537 missiles and drones; Ukraine's defense systems shot down 475. Explosions hit Lviv, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhia, and Cherkasy, damaging homes, colleges, and industrial sites. Meanwhile, Russia claims to have intercepted three Ukrainian drones. As destruction mounts, Putin signals renewed interest in peace talks—though prior rounds have failed to end the conflict since 2022.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has called U.S. President Donald Trump a “courageous man,” saying he once again respects America under Trump’s leadership. During his visit to Belarus, Putin praised Trump for surviving last year’s assassination attempt and credited him with restoring direct U.S.-Russia communications.
Trump emphasized that the wars in Ukraine and Gaza wouldn’t have happened under his presidency. Putin, speaking from Minsk, also said Trump is sincerely trying to broker peace in Ukraine. Since returning to office, Trump has reportedly spoken to Putin five times, reigniting direct channels cut off under Biden. The remarks underscore a dramatic shift in global tone and U.S. diplomacy under Trump’s second term.

Breaking news surrounding Taylor Swift's canceled Eras Tour concerts in Vienna last year: German authorities have arrested a Syrian national on allegations of supporting the foiled terrorist attack targeting one of Swift's shows. In a press release, authorities identified the national as Mohammad A., a minor. Prosecutors said that the suspect supported the ideology of the Islamic State group and that, between mid-July and August last year, he was in contact with a young adult from Austria who was planning a bomb attack on one of Swift's concerts in Vienna.

Following Russia’s largest aerial attack on Ukraine—over 500 drones and 60 missiles—President Zelensky has made an urgent plea to the U.S. and European allies for advanced air defense support. The strike injured civilians and destroyed residential infrastructure. Tragedy deepened with the death of Ukrainian F-16 pilot Maksym Ustymenko, who downed seven Russian targets. With three U.S.-made jets already lost, Ukraine’s air arsenal is thinning. Zelensky warns Moscow won’t stop unless its strike power is neutralized, as aid delays under Trump threaten Ukraine’s ability to defend itself.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has launched a scathing attack on French President Emmanuel Macron and German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, accusing them of attempting to revive Europe's imperialist past. Speaking at a diplomatic event, Lavrov warned that Western leaders were reverting to their “former instincts” of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between today’s political climate and Nazi-era atrocities.
He further stated that “German and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,” claiming that just as some “burned Jews,” others now “burn Russians.” Lavrov’s remarks come amid intensifying tensions between Moscow and the West over the war in Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing European militarization.
The inflammatory comments are expected to draw condemnation from European capitals but are in line with Russia’s narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism.
