A Ukrainian official claims that Russia's surface-to-air missile system downed an Azerbaijani passenger plane, causing it to crash in Kazakhstan.
The crash, near Aktau on December 25, resulted in 38 fatalities and 29 survivors.
The plane, an Embraer 190, was reportedly damaged while flying from Baku to Grozny, with traces of missile damage visible on the tail.
Ukraine accuses Russia of failing to close airspace over Grozny during a suspected drone attack, which led to the tragedy.

In a stunning development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced he will speak with U.S. President Donald Trump by phone. The announcement came during a business forum on July 3, 2025, with Putin offering no details on the agenda before leaving abruptly for the call. Minutes later, Trump confirmed the 10 AM ET conversation on social media, sending shockwaves through the international community.
This high-stakes call comes at a critical moment in the Russia-Ukraine war. Russian forces have been making significant territorial gains, recently claiming full control over the strategic region of Luhansk. This major blow to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's government has been exacerbated by a slowdown in crucial military support from the United States. Moscow has intensified its aerial attacks, and the geopolitical landscape appears to be shifting, with both NATO and the U.S. seemingly easing their harsh rhetoric against Putin's actions.
Speculation is now rampant over the purpose of the Putin-Trump discussion. Key questions remain unanswered: What will they discuss? Will this call formalize a Russian victory and signal the end of the war? This move is particularly significant given Trump's previous vow to end the war in "24 hours," a promise he has struggled to fulfill since taking office. The world is watching to see if this phone call will reshape global security and determine the final fate of Ukraine.

In a stunning development, the U.S. has halted a critical weapons shipment to Ukraine that had already been staged in Poland, according to a bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal. The cache includes over two dozen PAC-3 Patriot missiles, more than two dozen Stinger air-defense systems, Hellfire missiles, and 90+ AIM air-to-air missiles designated for Ukraineâs F-16 fighter jets. U.S. administration and congressional officials reportedly confirmed the freeze, which aligns with the ongoing strategic review under the âAmerica Firstâ doctrine. The move comes amid rising Ukrainian frustration, with officials accusing Washington of endangering their defense readiness. The freeze has triggered intense geopolitical anxiety, with Kyiv urging clarity while Moscow eyes an advantage.

Turkey Boycott: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has publicly backed Pakistan during Indiaâs Operation Sindoor, calling PM Shehbaz Sharif his âprecious brotherâ and praising the rare friendship between their nations. The message sparked outrage across India, with calls for a total boycott of Turkey and Azerbaijan. Shehbaz Sharif thanked Erdogan on X, while reports confirmed that Turkish-made drones were used in the conflict. Indian travel platform Ixigo suspended bookings to Turkey and Azerbaijan. Though symbolic, the $400 million Indian tourism market loss could still impact Turkeyâs economy and image.
