Japan is set to export six Abukuma-class destroyer escorts to the Philippines in a landmark move aimed at countering China’s growing aggression in the South China Sea. The aging destroyers, in service for over 30 years, will significantly boost the Philippines’ naval capabilities, which currently lack such firepower. Defense ministers from both nations agreed to the deal in Singapore last month. Tokyo will frame the upgrades as a joint development project to bypass Japan’s pacifist export rules. The Philippines will inspect the ships this summer. This strategic partnership comes amid intensifying maritime tensions, as both Tokyo and Manila face growing challenges from Beijing’s territorial claims. The deal marks a new chapter in Asia-Pacific military realignment and is expected to draw a sharp response from China.

A massive explosion rocked the Singapore-flagged container ship MV Wan Hai 503 off Kerala’s coast on Monday. The underdeck blast triggered thick smoke and fire, prompting 18 of the 22 crew to abandon ship. The Indian Navy swiftly diverted INS Surat for rescue, while the Coast Guard joined evacuation efforts. The vessel, en route from Colombo to Mumbai, remains adrift and burning. The Navy is deploying a Dornier aircraft to assess the situation. The incident follows a recent cargo ship sinking nearby.

On July 6, Russian forces launched a calculated drone strike on a military enlistment and recruitment office in Kremenchuk, located in Ukraine's Poltava region. This attack came just hours after Russia conducted one of its largest aerial assaults on Ukraine, involving 157 drones and four S-300 missiles that targeted key regions including Kharkiv, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, and Kyiv, causing significant damage and casualties.
Ukraine's Ground Forces have confirmed that the UAV strike in Kremenchuk hit the recruitment center and also damaged a nearby residential building. While no casualties were reported among military staff or civilians at the enlistment facility, the attack caused a fire at a private property and forced the closure of a major road in the city's central district, disrupting civilian life.
This military escalation occurs amidst a complex geopolitical backdrop. A recent phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and former U.S. President Donald Trump failed to secure a ceasefire. Reports suggest that Putin, believing he has the upper hand in the conflict, is unwilling to halt the offensive and "throw away his lead."
With the date for any further peace talks still undecided, Russia continues its relentless campaign, pounding Ukrainian cities with a massive barrage of missiles and drones. This latest attack on a recruitment center signals a strategic shift to Cripple Ukraine's ability to reinforce its front lines. Stay tuned to Oneindia News for the latest updates on the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

A bombshell revelation has rocked the White House, with an anonymous insider claiming that U.S. President Donald Trump's dramatic tariff threats are nothing but a "theatrical show." As Trump pushes for "reciprocal" tariffs up to 70% on 12 unnamed countries, a White House source told Politico the entire process lacks a real deadline and is staged for maximum impact. Letters signed by Trump are set to go out Monday, with offers labeled “take it or leave it.” India is likely among the targets, amid stalled trade negotiations. The move comes even as Trump claims to intensify his trade war rhetoric heading into August 1. With critics questioning the credibility of this “showmanship,” the future of global trade talks just became murkier.

China’s President Xi Jinping has approved new Communist Party rules that could signal a shift in leadership dynamics. The Politburo’s move to standardize policymaking and delegate daily responsibilities has sparked speculation about a potential post-Xi transition. While experts caution that this isn’t a power handover, the increasing roles of senior leaders like Li Qiang, Ding Xuexiang, and Cai Qi suggest Xi may be stepping back from micromanagement. Analysts view this as an effort to institutionalize governance amid growing national and global challenges.

In a fiery declaration, U.S. Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna has vowed to block all future weapons funding for Ukraine over what she calls the persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Citing President Zelensky’s crackdown on the nation’s largest Christian denomination, Luna, a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, accused Ukraine of violating religious freedoms and warned that the U.S. is "not your piggy bank." Her post comes amid growing criticism in the U.S. of how billions in aid to Ukraine are being used, especially under Trump’s renewed “America First” policy. The issue has gained little attention in U.S. politics, but high-profile voices like Tucker Carlson have echoed similar concerns. The controversy deepens as Zelensky strips top clergy of citizenship and pushes legislation targeting churches with links to Russia. Is Washington finally rethinking its blind support for Kiev?

Israel has firmly rejected Hamas' proposed changes to the Qatari-mediated ceasefire deal, calling them "unacceptable." Despite this, Prime Minister Netanyahu has directed Israel’s negotiating team to proceed to Qatar on Sunday for proximity talks, as part of the ongoing U.S.-brokered effort led by President Donald Trump. The original deal envisions a 60-day ceasefire, release of hostages, and negotiations to end the 21-month-long war. Hamas had earlier described its response as “positive,” signaling openness to immediate talks. However, Israel’s statement indicates a stark gap between the two sides. Trump, who termed the ceasefire proposal as his “final offer,” remains optimistic, though tensions around the edits by Hamas raise serious doubts. The move comes amid intensifying international pressure and rising death tolls in Gaza. The talks in Qatar may be the last viable opportunity to reach a breakthrough—or confirm the collapse of yet another peace effort.TAGS
