An explosion rocked Russia’s Belgorod region early Friday, derailing a diesel locomotive and halting rail traffic for hours.
Russian officials, including Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov, confirmed the sabotage, which delayed even his own train.
The blast follows a series of rail attacks in Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh, with Moscow accusing Ukraine of orchestrating "terrorist acts" to target infrastructure.
President Putin condemned the incidents as attempts to derail diplomacy backed by the U.S., while analysts see Ukraine leveraging such disruptions to gain ground at the negotiation table.

In one of the largest overnight drone barrages, Russia claims its air defense forces intercepted 99 drones targeting key cities and infrastructure across western Russia. Airports in St. Petersburg, Kaluga, and Volgograd were paralyzed, with 70+ flights delayed. Train services in Volgograd faced hours-long halts after drone debris damaged railway power lines. Debris fell in residential and industrial areas, reportedly injuring at least one person in Leningrad Oblast.
The Russian Defense Ministry accused Ukraine of orchestrating the strikes, with Kyiv yet to issue a statement. Targeted regions included Bryansk, Smolensk, Kaluga, Volgograd, Rostov, and even occupied Crimea and Moscow. While Russia continues its aggressive strikes on Ukraine, this retaliation suggests an expanding and unpredictable aerial conflict zone. The Kyiv Independent couldn’t verify the claims independently. This is a rapidly developing story.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has begun a high-stakes three-day visit to North Korea, underscoring deepening military ties between Moscow and Pyongyang amid the Ukraine war. Lavrov praised the “invincible brotherhood” between the nations during talks with North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui in Wonsan. Notably, North Korea had deployed troops to aid Russian forces in repelling Ukraine’s invasion of the Kursk region in 2024.
Lavrov specifically commended the sacrifices of the Korean People’s Army in retaking Sudzha and surrounding villages from what he called “Ukrainian Nazis.” With Kyiv’s offensive now crushed, North Korea is sending more troops for reconstruction efforts in Kursk. Lavrov’s visit signals Russia’s growing pivot towards pariah states as it faces Western isolation. Shoigu confirmed 6,000 North Korean troops would aid with demining and engineering.

Former Russian Transport Minister Roman Starovoit was found dead in Moscow just hours after being sacked by President Vladimir Putin. Authorities say the 51-year-old died of a gunshot wound in his car, with suicide suspected. Starovoit’s abrupt dismissal follows mounting pressure over corruption probes and border failures in Kursk during his earlier governorship. Kremlin critics question whether political purging played a role. His death adds to the growing list of mysterious ends among Putin’s inner circle.

Ukraine unleashed a sweeping overnight drone offensive that struck deep inside Russian territory, killing at least three and igniting fires at key military and energy infrastructure sites. The strikes, claimed by Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces and intelligence agency SBU, highlight Kyiv’s expanding long-range drone warfare capabilities.
High-value targets included the Ryazan oil refinery near Moscow, the Annanefteprodukt oil facility in Voronezh, and the Primorsko-Akhtarsk military airfield—allegedly used to launch Iranian-made Shahed drones. In Penza, the Elektropribor electronics plant was hit, killing a woman and injuring two others. Fires and structural damage were also reported in Samara and Rostov, where casualties included an elderly man and a security guard. Russia’s defense ministry said 112 drones were intercepted during the 9-hour attack, but several breached air defenses. As Ukraine leans on asymmetric warfare, its drone campaign signals a bold shift in strategy—aimed at crippling Russia's war machine beyond the frontlines.

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.
