Russia-Ukraine War: Zelensky Offers $24,000 to Young Recruits—Desperation or Strategic Efforts?
Ukraine is ramping up its recruitment efforts, offering young men aged 18-24 a hefty $24,000 incentive to enlist, along with free dental care and the option to leave the country after service.
As the Russia-Ukraine war drags on, Western allies are pushing Kiev to bolster its aging forces.
Meanwhile, U.S.-Russia talks in Saudi Arabia seek a diplomatic breakthrough, with Moscow warning Kiev over ceasefire violations.
Is Ukraine’s recruitment drive a sign of desperation, or a necessary move to sustain the fight?

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.

Russia has launched its largest aerial attack on Ukraine since the war began, according to Ukrainian officials. Overnight, a staggering 537 aerial weapons — including 477 drones and decoys, and 60 missiles — were fired at targets across Ukraine.
Ukraine's air force reported that 249 were shot down and 226 were likely disrupted by electronic jamming. Yuriy Ihnat, spokesperson for Ukraine’s air force, called the strike “the most massive air attack” yet. Areas far from the frontlines, including western Ukraine, were hit. Poland scrambled jets to protect its airspace. Casualties included one dead in Kherson and six injured in Cherkasy, including a child. This assault follows a wave of similar attacks earlier this month, which had already been labelled the most powerful at that point in the war. Damage was reported in Kharkiv, where multiple residential buildings and houses were struck. The escalation signals a grim turn in the nearly three-year conflict.

Israel and Iran have traded strikes for the fifth consecutive day, raising fears of a wider regional conflict. Former President Trump, speaking after leaving the G7 summit early, issued a stark warning to Iran, urging civilians to evacuate Tehran amid signals of massive U.S. military action. Explosions rocked Tehran as Israel bombed the Natanz nuclear facility, triggering fears of nuclear contamination. Iran responded with missile strikes on Tel Aviv. Peace efforts are underway via Oman, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, but the region teeters on the edge of all-out war.

Riyadh has called for urgent UN Security Council intervention, while the UAE urged maximum restraint. Kuwait and Jordan warned the strikes threaten Middle East stability.

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.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has issued an urgent appeal to NATO and the E5 members, highlighting the unprecedented scale of Russian drone warfare. With over 28,000 Iranian-made Shahed drones launched against Ukraine since the invasion began—and 2,736 in June alone—Zelensky is demanding stronger air defense systems, economic retaliation, and full political isolation of Moscow.
In a powerful address, Zelensky calls on the EU to impose a $30 oil price cap, block Russia’s shadow fleet, and make this war too expensive for Putin to sustain. Backed by soundbites and footage from the frontlines, this report dives into Ukraine’s escalating fight to defend Europe’s eastern flank.
