In a dramatic escalation, Russiaâs Ministry of Defense reported shooting down 112 Ukrainian drones overnight across 13 regions, including Moscow, Crimea, and Tula. Air traffic was disrupted at major airports, and debris caused injuries and damage in Lipetsk. This wave is part of Ukraine's intensified drone campaign, with nearly 500 UAVs intercepted nationwide since Tuesday. The assault comes as Russia prepares for major wartime commemorations, raising concerns about air defense vulnerabilities and retaliatory responses in an increasingly volatile conflict zone.

Amid escalating global interest in resolving the RussiaâUkraine war, Pope Leo XIV offered the Vatican as a neutral ground for the next round of peace negotiations. Italian PM Giorgia Meloni confirmed the Popeâs willingness. However, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov dismissed the offer, claiming the Vatican is unsuitable as a platform, citing religious concerns and Ukraineâs persecution of the Orthodox Church. Lavrov also mentioned that Moscowâs draft peace memorandum is nearly ready, but there is no clarity yet on when the next round of talks might occur.

President Donald Trump has announced a major development in U.S.-China trade talks, revealing that China has agreed to âopen upâ to U.S. businesses and suspend trade barriers. This comes after a high-stakes negotiation involving top U.S. and Chinese officials, resulting in a 90-day pause on most tariffs. Trump highlighted this as a key breakthrough in the discussions led by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Rep. Jamieson Greer. The agreement is expected to ease tensions and create a temporary window for further economic cooperation between the two global powers.

Russian President Vladimir Putin slammed Ukrainian nationalists as "idiots" for destroying Soviet-era World War II monuments, linking the acts to neo-Nazi ideology. Citing Ukraine's de-communization effortsâsuch as removing statues and renaming citiesâPutin accused Kyiv of erasing the Red Army's legacy and glorifying Nazi collaborators.

In a major overnight assault on May 15â16, Russia launched 112 dronesâincluding Shahed modelsâat Ukraine, striking multiple regions.
