Zelensky Confirms Ukraine To Attend Istanbul Talks | Kyiv Demands Ceasefire, Return Of Children

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed Ukraine will attend peace talks with Russia in Istanbul on June 2.

Kyiv delayed confirmation to review Moscow’s ceasefire proposal but has now outlined its own demands: a full ceasefire, release of all prisoners, and return of abducted children.

Ukraine’s defense minister Rustem Umerov will lead the delegation.

While Kyiv seeks transparency, Russia’s memo reportedly includes sweeping demands like NATO freeze and sanctions removal.

Despite no documents shared by Moscow, Washington has urged Kyiv to proceed with the talks for the sake of peace.

Russia In Blackout: Ukraine BOMBS Power Grid Minutes After Peace Talks | Putin’s Warning IGNORED

The Russia-Ukraine war has reached a boiling point. Ukrainian drone strikes late Monday knocked out power across multiple Russian regions, with Zaporozhye and Kherson plunging into darkness. Over 104,000 people were left without electricity, and hospitals are relying on backup generators. The strikes came just hours after failed peace talks in Istanbul, with Kyiv rejecting Moscow's demands. As both sides escalate militarily, Ukraine appears undeterred by the threat of a greater Russian offensive. The conflict is entering a critical, unpredictable phase. #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #DroneStrikes #Blackouts #Zaporozhye #Kherson #Putin #Zelensky #UkraineNews #RussiaNews #Kyiv #Moscow #PeaceTalks #Geopolitics #WarNews #BreakingNews #Defense #UkraineConflict #MilitaryNews #PowerOutage #GlobalTensions #NATO #RussiaStrikes #UkrainianArmy #Kremlin #NewsUpdate #WorldNews #WarEscalation #UkraineStrike #EnergyWar #RussiaUkraineCrisis Also Read How Ukraine's 'Operation Spider's Web' Struck Deep Into Russia, Targeted Strategic Airbases :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/how-ukraines-operation-spiders-web-struck-deep-into-russia-targeted-strategic-airbases-4170093.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Claims Massive Drone Strike Destroyed 40 Warplanes Deep Inside Russia, Strategic Bombers Damaged :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-claims-massive-drone-strike-destroyed-40-warplanes-deep-inside-russia-strategic-bombers-dam-4169967.html?ref=DMDesc 'Something Happened To This Guy': Trump Slams Putin For Russia's Fresh Attack On Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/something-happened-to-this-guy-trump-slams-putin-for-russias-fresh-attack-on-ukraine-4163675.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~

Russia, Ukraine Agree To Swap 6,000 Soldiers’ Bodies As Outcome Of Istanbul Talks | SHOCKING

In a rare gesture of mutual concession, Russia and Ukraine have agreed to swap 6,000 fallen soldiers—three years into a brutal war that has killed tens of thousands. The body exchange agreement was struck during fragile peace talks in Istanbul that lasted barely an hour, following Ukraine’s unprecedented drone strikes deep inside Russian territory. Though hailed by Kyiv as a “brilliant operation,” the strikes failed to generate real diplomatic momentum. With air raids escalating and troops drained, both sides remain locked in a grinding deadlock that diplomacy alone seems unable to resolve. #RussiaUkraineWar #BodyExchange #PeaceTalks #Istanbul #UkraineDrones #Putin #Zelenskyy #WW3 #DroneAttack #MilitaryCasualties #StrategicBombers #Ceasefire #WarNews #UkraineRussiaConflict #POWExchange #WarDead #EasternFront #Airstrikes #RussiaUkraineUpdate #Geopolitics

Mark Rutte’s Flip-Flop Game on Ukraine’s NATO Membership EXPOSED! |Critics SLAM NATO’s Mixed Signals

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has declared Ukraine's path to NATO membership “irreversible.” But this bold statement comes after months of wavering remarks from both Rutte and other Western leaders, who had earlier ruled out such a move. Critics argue that the alliance’s indecisiveness is dragging the war on, giving mixed signals to both Kyiv and Moscow. As Ukraine fights to survive, NATO's promises remain non-committal, raising questions about whether the “irreversible” path is real or rhetorical. Ukraine’s future hangs between hope and hesitation. #UkraineNATO #MarkRutte #NATOChief #UkraineWar #NATOExpansion #Zelensky #EasternEurope #SecurityCrisis #GlobalPolitics #Kyiv #Putin #RussiaUkraine #AlliancePolitics #UkraineNews #NATOSummit #RutteSpeech #Geopolitics #UkraineConflict #InternationalRelations #WorldNews Also Read Trump Blames Putin & Zelenskyy as He Seeks to End Ukraine War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-blames-putin-zelenskyy-as-he-seeks-to-end-ukraine-war-4109951.html?ref=DMDesc Putin, Trump Will Speak On Tuesday About The War In Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/putin-trump-will-speak-on-tuesday-about-the-war-in-ukraine-4097635.html?ref=DMDesc An Uncertain Peace: How Trump And Putin Plan To End The Ukraine War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/an-uncertain-peace-how-trump-and-putin-plan-to-end-the-ukraine-war-4096855.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~ED.420~GR.124~

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky launched a scathing attack on Russia's proposal for a short-term ceasefire aimed at recovering bodies from the battlefield, calling it a sham and labeling the Russian delegation “idiots.” The remarks came after the second round of peace talks in Türkiye, where Russia's lead negotiator Vladimir Medinsky suggested a 2–3 day truce for humanitarian reasons.

Ukraine has declared a nationwide air alert after Russian MiG-31K jets—capable of carrying Kinzhal aeroballistic missiles—took off, sparking immediate concern of long-range strikes. The Ukrainian Air Force urged civilians to seek shelter. This comes in retaliation for Ukraine’s drone attack on Russian bomber bases, which destroyed over 40 aircraft. Overnight, Russia launched waves of drone strikes on Ukrainian cities, including Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Chernihiv, causing casualties. Failed peace talks in Istanbul and Putin's silence since the air base losses signal deepening conflict and an unpredictable escalation ahead. #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #MiG31K #KinzhalMissile #AirAlert #Putin #UkrainianAirForce #DroneStrikes #WarInEurope #Donetsk #Kharkiv #Chernihiv #MilitaryEscalation #RussiaStrikes #UkraineUnderAttack #Zelenskyy #PutinRevenge #Geopolitics #MissileThreat #BreakingNews #ConflictZone #PutinSilence #PeaceTalksFail #MissileAlert #UkrainianDefense #AirRaid #RussiaRetaliation #PutinStrikesBack #MiG31Threat #UkraineCrisis #WarUpdate ~ED.103~HT.318~

Following Ukraine’s Operation ‘Spider’s Web’ that destroyed 40 Russian bombers, Moscow has vowed massive retaliation, with President Putin reportedly ordering the RS-26 Oreshnik hypersonic missiles to be prepared. These nuclear-capable MIRVed weapons can strike deep into Europe and NATO territories. With Germany, the UK, and France backing Ukraine militarily, tensions are at a boiling point. Russia has warned that NATO troop presence in Ukraine would trigger direct escalation.

Oreshnik Missile’s Debut: Russia Unleashes Deadly Hypersonic Oreshnik Missile On Ukraine's Dnipro

Russia has used its hypersonic Oreshnik missile for the first time in an attack on Dnipro, Ukraine, striking at unmatched speeds of Mach 10–11. Surveillance footage showed six massive fireballs, and intelligence confirms the missile carried multiple warheads. President Putin touted its capabilities on state TV, warning NATO that the missile can bypass all current defenses and deliver devastation comparable to a nuclear strike—even with conventional payloads. The Pentagon has labeled it experimental, but its battlefield debut is sending shockwaves through Europe and the global defense community. #OreshnikMissile #RussiaUkraineWar #Putin #HypersonicWeapons #DniproStrike #Mach10 #MissileDefense #NATO #UkraineWar #WarInEurope #BallisticMissile #MilitaryTechnology #Pentagon #PutinSpeech #NuclearThreat #RussiaStrikes #UkrainianIntel #ClusterWarhead #GlobalSecurity #WarfareTech #Mach11 #MilitaryNews #BreakingNews #DefenseSystems #KapustinYar #CaspianSea #ICBM #Submunitions #HazelnutMissile #StrategicThreat Also Read Russia: Bridge Collapse Derails Train, At Least 7 Confirmed Dead :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-bridge-collapse-derails-train-at-least-7-confirmed-dead-4169275.html?ref=DMDesc West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~
