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.

In a harrowing attack early Thursday morning, a Ukrainian drone crashed into a residential high-rise in Voronezh, southern Russia, injuring at least three children and displacing multiple families. Russian officials confirmed that air defenses intercepted five UAVs, but one struck the 16th floor of a building on Aivazovsky Street, causing a large explosion, property damage, and panic among residents. Two boys, born in 2009 and 2013, were hospitalized with head injuries, while a girl sustained cuts and was treated at the scene. Photos and videos of the aftermath—smoke, shattered windows, crushed vehicles—flooded Russian social media. This is the second drone attack on Voronezh in just three days. Tuesday’s larger strike injured 24 civilians, including four children. Russian authorities label these cross-border UAV raids as "terrorist attacks" by Ukraine, accusing Kyiv of deliberately targeting civilians. Emergency crews continue to provide shelter and aid to affected residents.

Donald Trump will host Qatari Prime Minister Al-Thani at the White House Wednesday as Gaza ceasefire negotiations enter a decisive phase. The dinner meeting will focus on Qatar’s mediation role, a potential 60-day truce, and phased hostage releases. Trump, who recently spoke with Emir Sheikh Tamim, is also expected to discuss Iran’s nuclear program. Earlier, Trump expressed optimism for a ceasefire breakthrough. Meetings with Bahrain’s king and crown prince signal a broader push for Middle East peace and Israeli troop withdrawal.

Trump has backed off a proposed strike plan targeting Moscow, delivering a sharp blow to Ukraine’s hopes. Declining to send long-range missiles, Trump left Zelensky hanging, signaling a potential pivot in U.S. support as the war enters a critical phase. Trump’s decision is sparking concern in Kyiv and among NATO allies over America’s long-term commitment.

Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) has intercepted a Russian agent caught red-handed planting a bomb in a civilian apartment in Rivne, Western Ukraine. The suspect, a 27-year-old man from Lviv, was allegedly recruited via Telegram by Russian intelligence with promises of “easy money.”
The device was intended to be detonated remotely in a densely populated city center, aiming to inflict maximum civilian casualties and spread fear. The suspect now faces terrorism-related charges, conspiracy, and illegal possession of explosives.
Authorities say this plot is part of a wider Russian campaign targeting civilians far from the frontlines, often exploiting vulnerable individuals with criminal or addiction histories. This is yet another stark reminder that Putin’s war is not limited to the battlefield.

A Russian 500-kg aerial bomb reduced a bustling shopping center in Ukraine's Donetsk Oblast to rubble, killing two and injuring at least 28 on July 16. The heart of Dobropillia city was targeted in a broad daylight strike that left more than 54 shops destroyed, over 300 apartments damaged, and multiple cars obliterated. A massive fire erupted after the impact, prompting an urgent response from emergency crews.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky denounced the attack as "horrendous, dumb Russian terror" devoid of military rationale. This violent escalation comes just two days after U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 50-day ultimatum, warning of severe tariffs on Russia unless a peace deal is reached. Despite repeated warnings, Russia continues its brutal offensive with impunity. The civilian toll rises, as Ukraine's east remains under siege in the face of international deadlines and unrelenting destruction.

Putin launched a wave of kamikaze drone strikes on Zelensky’s hometown, Kryvyi Rih, plunging the city into chaos. Meanwhile, Kharkiv was rocked by 17 powerful explosions within just 20 minutes, marking one of the most intense overnight assaults in recent weeks.

A major political shake-up in Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has named Yulia Svyrydenko as his choice for Prime Minister — a bold move that could define Ukraine’s post-war recovery or risk political backlash.
Svyrydenko, the current Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Economy, is known for brokering a high-stakes minerals deal with the U.S. and leading efforts to modernize Ukraine’s economy. Now, she’s being Thrust into the top job with a mandate to overhaul the entire government.
Can she deliver in one of Europe’s most volatile political climates? Is this the rise of a new power broker — or a gamble in the middle of war?

A fierce war of words has erupted between the United States and Russia after former US President Donald Trump threatened to impose "secondary tariffs" of up to 100% if Moscow does not end the war in Ukraine within 50 days. Trump, speaking at a White House press event, warned that he was "very unhappy" with the ongoing conflict and that severe economic consequences would follow.
Responding to the threat, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov delivered a sharp and dismissive rebuke from China. Lavrov stated unequivocally, "We are not worried, it's not our job to worry," indicating that Russia is prepared to withstand any new sanctions. He further mocked Trump's timeline, pointing out the shifting deadlines from the US. "Now it's 50 days, it used to be 24 hours, also 100 days. We've been through that already," Lavrov commented, suggesting a lack of seriousness in the American threat.
The defiant stance was echoed by Russian Deputy Minister Ryabkov, who asserted that "any attempts to make demands or ultimatums are unacceptable" to the Kremlin. This bold response comes even as the United States finalizes plans to supply more advanced weaponry to Ukraine, with funding provided by the European Union. Russia's confidence appears unshaken, escalating geopolitical tensions and leaving the world to wonder what Trump's next move will be in this high-stakes standoff.

The second round of Russia-Europe peace talks in Istanbul ended in just over an hour, achieving no breakthrough. Led by Vladimir Medinsky and Rustem Umerov, the Russian and Ukrainian delegations sat across a U-shaped table, mediated by Turkey. Despite plans to exchange ceasefire terms, both sides remained sharply divided. Ukraine submitted a list of deported children and announced a new POW release. The talks occurred amid rising tensions following Ukraine’s Operation “Spider’s Web” and Russia’s threats to deploy nuclear-capable Oreshnik missiles.

A large-scale prisoner exchange between Russia and Ukraine has been completed, as announced by Donald Trump on Truth Social. The deal follows trilateral talks between Ukraine, the U.S., and Turkey in Istanbul and direct Russia-Ukraine negotiations. Defense Minister Rustem Umerov confirmed discussions around a 1,000-for-1,000 exchange, a ceasefire, and a possible Zelenskyy-Putin meeting. President Zelenskyy labeled the agreement as the only tangible outcome of the diplomatic dialogue. Trump suggested the breakthrough could "lead to something big" in resolving the ongoing war.

In a defiant statement ahead of key NATO-related discussions, French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu declared France’s “absolute red line” in the Ukraine conflict: demilitarizing Ukraine while denying it NATO membership. Lecornu told Valeurs Actuelles that Europe cannot accept a defenseless Ukraine outside NATO, directly rejecting Russia's long-standing demands for a neutral, demilitarized Ukraine.
Russia, in contrast, insists any peace deal must address its security concerns — including Ukraine’s NATO ambition and military status. Lecornu's remarks come ahead of a UK-French push to reshape Ukraine’s post-war military under a Western “coalition of the willing.” Meanwhile, Moscow warns such moves will escalate the war, with foreign forces seen as “legitimate targets.” Tensions mount as Putin claims Ukraine reneged on the 2022 Istanbul terms that would’ve imposed limits on its army. The future of Ukraine’s military — and its place in Europe — hangs in the balance.

Russia has revealed that Washington has “postponed” a crucial third round of consultations aimed at resolving bilateral irritants, according to Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova. The talks, initially expected to build on earlier rounds held in Istanbul in February and April, are seen as essential for easing growing U.S.–Russia tensions. While the U.S. hasn't formally canceled the negotiations, the delay has sparked speculation over Washington’s intent and diplomatic posture. Zakharova emphasized that contacts remain active behind the scenes and that Moscow still perceives interest from the U.S. in improving ties. The “irritant removal” dialogue, seen as a rare platform amid escalating rhetoric, now faces renewed uncertainty. Is Washington backing away or recalibrating its approach?

In a dramatic escalation of Turkey’s political crackdown, three more opposition mayors — Abdurrahman Tutdere of Adiyaman, Zeydan Karalar of Adana, and Muhittin Bocek of Antalya — have been arrested in sweeping early-morning raids. All are members of the main opposition party, CHP, which has faced a wave of detentions following Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu’s imprisonment in March. The mayors are accused of bribery, bid-rigging, and organized crime, though exact charges remain undisclosed. The arrests come amid mounting criticism of President Erdogan’s government, with critics claiming the detentions are politically motivated attempts to weaken the CHP ahead of future elections. Imamoglu, now jailed, has since been nominated as the CHP’s presidential candidate, and his arrest sparked Turkey’s largest protests in a decade. Observers warn of further instability if the crackdown continues.

Turkey is battling deadly wildfires across multiple provinces, with two fatalities confirmed and over 200 homes destroyed. The blazes, burning for seven straight days, have taken a sinister turn after a group calling itself “Children of Fire” claimed responsibility for coordinated arson attacks in six cities. The group, allegedly linked to the banned Kurdish militant organization PKK, says it started the fires as part of a political campaign.
The PKK has not commented on the claim. Firefighting operations continue near major cities like Izmir, Antalya, and Istanbul, with support from helicopters and aircraft. Roads near popular resort town Çeşme have been closed, and hundreds have been evacuated. As emergency services struggle to contain the flames, Turkey now faces a national security scare amid environmental devastation. The interior ministry has launched investigations into the arson claims while warning that further attacks may be imminent as the dry summer season continues.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has issued a stern warning to BRICS nations—India, China, and Brazil—over their continued trade ties with Russia. Following a meeting with Donald Trump, who gave Putin a 50-day peace deadline, Rutte threatened 100% tariffs and secondary sanctions if these nations fail to pressure Moscow. The move marks a shift toward coordinated global economic pressure to end the war. Trump echoed the warning, hinting at penalties for “anti-American policies” amid escalating geopolitical tensions.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, attending the SCO summit in China, strongly criticized the United States and NATO for their growing involvement in the Indo-Pacific region. Lavrov argued that NATO allies seek to expand their influence into the Far East, undermining regional stability. In contrast, Russia, China, and like-minded nations advocate for an “open and free security architecture” for East Asia. His remarks highlight deepening Moscow-Beijing cooperation against Western strategic ambitions in the Asia-Pacific.

In a dramatic shift, U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to consider striking Moscow—just days after a failed phone call with Vladimir Putin. Sources told the Financial Times and Washington Post that Trump asked, "Can you hit Moscow?" and expressed frustration over Putin's unwillingness to negotiate peace. This follows renewed U.S. weapons support for Ukraine under a proposed NATO deal.
Was this a pressure tactic or a dangerous escalation plan? Here's what we know about the explosive July 4th phone call and what it could mean for the future of the war in Ukraine.

France has rejected NATO’s new U.S.-led initiative to fund American weapons for Ukraine, dealing a blow to Trump’s arms plan. President Macron insists Europe must reduce dependency and prioritize its own defense industry. French officials cite budget constraints and strategic autonomy as key reasons. The move deepens a rift within NATO, with the Czech Republic and Hungary also opting out. Germany, however, backs the plan, warning that only U.S. supplies can meet Ukraine’s urgent battlefield needs against Russia’s continued offensive.
