The Pentagon has confirmed it is conducting a “capability review” to reassess whether military aid to Ukraine aligns with America’s shifting defense priorities. Chief spokesperson Sean Parnell said the U.S. is taking a hard look at promised weapons deliveries — some of which are now halted — to ensure national interests come first. The move follows the White House’s decision to stop key shipments of air defense ammunition, artillery shells, and missiles previously pledged under the Biden administration.
With President Trump’s “America First” policy reshaping foreign aid strategy, the Pentagon appears to be pivoting away from prolonged foreign entanglements. Ukrainian officials have slammed the halt as betrayal, warning it weakens their resistance against Russia’s advances. Meanwhile, analysts say this could signal a major realignment in U.S. global commitments — and a boost for Russian military strategy. Is Washington walking away from Kyiv?

Is Ukraine really in the dark about suspended U.S. military aid? The U.S. State Department responds to reports claiming Kyiv learned of the aid pause through the media. Spokesperson Tammy Bruce insists communication took place—but Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense says no official notice was ever received. With Trump yet to greenlight new defense packages and stockpiles running low, pressure mounts as the war with Russia enters a critical phase. Are U.S.-Ukraine ties beginning to fray? Find out what’s really going on behind the diplomatic curtain.

The United States has abruptly paused deliveries of key military aid—air defence ammunition, missiles, and artillery shells—to Ukraine under Trump’s “America First” doctrine. Ukrainian MPs blasted this move, insisting “the United States is no longer our ally.” Mariana Bezuglaya and Solomiya Bobrovskaya accused the administration of sidelining Kyiv, even summoning the US chargé d’affaires to demand resumed support. President Trump told Zelensky at The Hague that US systems are “very hard to get” and prioritized for national and Israeli defense. Meanwhile, Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell confirmed a “capability review” to align aid with US interests. Kiev warns that this retrenchment could empower Russian advances toward Dnipro and Sumy, diminishing Ukraine’s defence. Moscow, unburdened, claims strategic initiative on the frontline. The aid suspension represents a major shift in US foreign policy and risks weakening Ukraine’s resistance as the war grinds on.

Russia’s Ministry of Defence confirmed the liberation of Zarya in the Donetsk People's Republic as Russian troops raised their flag following intense clashes. Azov fighters were reportedly killed and their equipment seized. Russian Sever, Zapad, and Yug groups inflicted major losses on Ukrainian brigades across multiple regions including Sumy and Kharkov. Ukrainian forces lost hundreds of troops, dozens of vehicles, artillery systems, and electronic warfare assets.

Russian forces claim major battlefield gains, capturing Redkodub in Donetsk and Kondratovka in Sumy after fierce clashes. Backed by drones, artillery, and air strikes, the ‘Yug’ Battle Group inflicted heavy losses on Ukrainian troops near Donetsk and Kharkiv, reportedly killing over 700 across multiple sectors. Moscow says Western-supplied systems, including Bogdana and PzH 2000 artillery, were destroyed along with radar units and ammo depots. The 20th Army led the Redkodub assault, continuing Russia’s eastward push on multiple fronts.

Russia has intensified its aerial assault on Ukraine, launching over 95 Shaheed drones in a single night. Ukraine’s air defenses shot down 36, with another 25 lost due to electronic warfare. The strikes killed at least 7 civilians and injured over 50, with Sumy, Kharkiv, Donetsk, and Kherson among the hardest hit. A Russian Kinzhal missile also struck port infrastructure in Mykolaiv. The violence escalates as peace talks stall, with both sides ramping up attacks in a strategic push for leverage at the negotiating table.

Russia is issuing new and alarming warnings: Ukraine could face the loss of key cities like Odessa, Kharkov, Sumy, and more if it continues to reject diplomatic negotiations. In a powerful statement, Andrey Kartapolov, head of Russia’s State Duma Defense Committee, echoed American economist Jeffrey Sachs’ recent remarks about Ukraine's strategic vulnerabilities—particularly its Black Sea coastline.
