'I am Sorry...' Putin Apologizes to Azerbaijan President for Crash: A Mistake by Russian Missiles?
Russian President Vladimir Putin has officially apologized to Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev for the tragic crash of an Azerbaijan Airlines plane, which killed 38 people.
The incident, which occurred near the city of Aktau in Kazakhstan on Christmas Day, has raised questions about the potential involvement of Russian air defense systems. Putin suggested that the crash was linked to Ukrainian drone attacks on Grozny airport, but reports indicate the possibility that Russian missiles mistakenly downed the civilian airliner.
The investigation is ongoing, and speculation continues about the cause of this tragic incident.

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 Moscowâs intervention.
Now under Russian control, he pledged a full-scale economic reboot to âunlock their full potentialâ and ensure locals see âreal improvement.â This strategic pivot not only bolsters Russiaâs hold on the contested areas but also signals defiance to Western diplomacy, especially amid growing international pressure. The timing â as Western leaders push for de-escalation â reveals Moscowâs determination to consolidate gains through infrastructure, development, and economic integration.

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. Ukraineâs 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.

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 Kyivâs most aggressive stance against Tehran, extending Ukraine's sanctions policy beyond Russia to its geopolitical backers. Zelenskyy labeled the Iranian government âone of the most brutal regimes in the worldâ 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.

Ukraineâs 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 talksâthough prior rounds have failed to end the conflict since 2022.

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.

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 â all Tajik nationals â 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 TĂŒrkiye 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.
