Russia’s Pearl Harbour Moment: 5 Jaw-Dropping Videos Of Ukraine Attack That Shocked World | WATCH
Ukraine launched a record-breaking drone offensive on June 1, destroying 41 Russian aircraft across two distant airbases.
Dubbed Russia’s “Pearl Harbour moment,” the covert operation used over 100 drones from modified containers, striking Tu-95s, Tu-22s, and A-50s with precision.
Ukraine claims full responsibility to avoid NATO blowback.
The attack precedes the second peace talks in Istanbul and underscores a dramatic shift in warfare — the drone era.
Russia has retaliated with 400 drones and issued veiled nuclear threats amid mounting strategic losses.
Ukraine’s bold Operation Spiderweb — one of the most audacious drone strikes in military history — targeted five major Russian air bases deep inside Russian territory. In retaliation, Russian President Vladimir Putin has launched fierce counterattacks, striking Ukraine’s critical drone manufacturing facilities. This brutal exchange marks a sharp escalation in the ongoing conflict, as both sides intensify their high-tech warfare capabilities.

President Trump was not informed in advance about Ukraine’s bold drone offensive—Operation Spiderweb—which targeted four Russian air bases and damaged over 40 bombers. The White House, via Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, confirmed Trump’s exclusion following reports from Axios and Ukrainian officials. The June 1 operation, coordinated by Ukraine’s Security Service using smuggled FPV drones, struck deep within Russian territory. The revelation raises key questions about U.S.-Ukraine intelligence sharing and Trump’s role in global security decisions as he heads into the 2024 election spotlight.

Russia has threatened massive retaliation after Ukraine destroyed 40 of its bombers in the daring Op ‘Spider’s Web’. With France, the UK, and Germany vowing to defend Ukraine, any Russian strike could trigger NATO’s Article 5—turning a regional conflict into World War III. This explainer compares the military strength of Russia and NATO across budget, personnel, air/naval power, and nuclear capabilities. While NATO holds a clear edge overall, Russia’s unmatched nuclear arsenal makes global escalation a terrifying possibility.

Despite sanctions and pledges to support Ukraine, the EU remains Russia’s biggest fossil fuel customer—spending over €209 billion since 2022. Russia has earned an estimated €885 billion from fossil fuel exports during the war. Donald Trump claimed Europe funds Russia more than it funds Ukraine—an assertion backed by data. While official EU oil imports dropped, pipeline gas and LNG purchases continue, some via shadow fleets. Critics argue this energy dependence prolongs the war and undermines Europe’s stance against Moscow.

In a historic deep-strike operation dubbed ‘Operation Spider’s Web’, Ukraine unleashed a covert FPV drone swarm targeting five Russian airbases deep inside enemy territory. Planned for over 18 months, drones were hidden inside wooden cabins, smuggled across borders, and launched remotely in broad daylight. With over 41 strategic bombers destroyed, including rare Tu-22M3 and Tu-95 aircraft, analysts are calling this Russia’s ‘Trojan Horse’ moment. Ukraine claims $7 billion in damage, with footage revealing dramatic explosions. The attack marks a new era in drone warfare, reshaping future combat strategies.

In its most daring drone offensive yet, Ukraine struck deep inside Russia on Sunday, targeting a military base in Siberia’s Irkutsk region and reportedly destroying over 40 aircraft, including Tu-95, Tu-22M3 bombers and an A-50 surveillance plane. The drone attack, confirmed by Russian officials, marks the first Ukrainian strike in Siberia. Code-named “Pavutyna” (Web), the special operation was conducted by Ukraine's SBU to degrade Russia’s long-range strike abilities. Amid the fallout, Ukraine and Russia are also preparing for fresh talks in Istanbul focused on a ceasefire and prisoner return.

Putin Fear Grips the West? In a dramatic escalation, NATO has ordered a fivefold increase in missile defense systems across Europe amid growing fears of Russian aggression. As President Putin ramps up military activity near NATO borders, alliance leaders are scrambling to seal defense gaps from the Arctic to Eastern Europe. Defense ministers are meeting in Brussels, and even countries like Iceland—without an army—are stepping up. The West braces for what could be a defining standoff.

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.

The UK will be forced to agree this month to increase defence spending to 3.5% of national income within a decade as part of a NATO push to rearm and keep the US.. Sky News
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.

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.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has outrightly rejected Russia’s 2–3 day ceasefire proposal, calling it a "tactic" and branding Russian officials as "idiots." The offer, presented during peace talks in Istanbul, aimed to recover bodies from grey zones for “Christian burial.” Russia also handed over a draft peace memorandum, which Zelensky dismissed as an “ultimatum.” With Russia reportedly prepping nuclear-capable Oreshnik missiles, Zelensky urged the U.S. for more sanctions. Has Zelensky's move put the earth on the brink of World War III?

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.
