Iran has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to continuing uranium enrichment as talks with European powers loom in Istanbul on JulyāÆ25. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that despite the recent US and Israeli strikes on Iranās nuclear facilities, the nationās atomic program remains a symbol of "national pride" and nonānegotiable sovereignty.
Simultaneously, Iranās Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed acceptance of a technical delegation from the IAEA in the coming weeks to discuss future cooperation modalitiesābut clarified they will not inspect nuclear sites or facilities.
European leaders from the UK, France, and Germany are set to press for an extension or activation of the JCPOAās "snapback" sanctions mechanism unless Iran makes verifiable concessions, including limiting enriched uranium stockpiles and resuming full cooperation with inspectors. Tehran insists that any renewed US engagement must begin with rebuilding trust and rejecting military covert agendas

In a dramatic escalation, Ukraine launched a wave of drone strikes on southern Russia, targeting Sochi ā the famed Black Sea resort city ā and its nearby Sirius technological and athletic hub. At least one woman was killed and another seriously injured when drone debris fell in Sochiās central streets.
Meanwhile, another UAV slammed into an oil terminal in Sirius, triggering emergency evacuations of students and tourists. Local sources described scenes of chaos, with air raid sirens blaring and as many as 20 explosions echoing across the city. This latest strike comes on the heels of Russia and Ukraine's third round of peace talks in Istanbul, which failed to secure a ceasefire. Moscowās proposal for brief humanitarian truces and a major POW exchange involving 1,200 prisoners each was met with skepticism from Kyiv. Tensions remain sky-high as drone warfare escalates far from the battlefield, threatening Russian civilians and infrastructure.

As global tensions rise, Iran hosts trilateral nuclear talks with Russia and Chinaājust days before a critical summit with European powers in Istanbul. The U.S., once central to negotiations, now watches from the sidelines as Tehran rejects direct dialogue. With the 2015 nuclear deal hanging by a thread and āsnapbackā sanctions looming, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher.
Will this new IranāRussiaāChina axis reshape the global balance of power? And can Europe force Iran back into complianceāor will diplomacy collapse once again?

California Governor Gavin Newsom has ignited a heated feud with Donald Trump over GOP-led redistricting efforts in Texas, warning of a national āmap arms race.ā After Democrats blocked a Republican vote in Texas, Newsom mocked Trump on social media, vowing to retaliate by redrawing Californiaās maps to offset Republican gains. He accused Trump of undermining democracy and urged him to pressure Texas Governor Greg Abbott to halt the plan.

President Donald Trump has invoked the Home Rule Act to seize control of Washington, D.C.ās Metropolitan Police Department, deploying 800 National Guard troops and placing operations under Attorney General Pam Bondi. Federal agents from the DEA, FBI, and Border Patrol are embedded in local policing, despite crime rates being at a 30-year low. Experts say this unprecedented move applies only to D.C., though Trumpās broader agenda includes expanding federal support for law enforcement, rolling back accountability measures, and dismantling diversity programs nationwide.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to visit the U.S. next month for the UNGA summit, with a possible meeting with Donald Trump to address strained trade relations. Ties have soured after Trump imposed a combined 50% tariff on Indian goods over market access disputes and Russian oil imports. India has rejected U.S. criticism, accusing Washington of double standards. If talks progress, Modi may invite Trump to India for the October Quad summit. Global tensions, including the Ukraine war, will also shape discussions.

Ahead of the TrumpāPutin summit in Alaska, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected any withdrawal from Donbas, warning it would allow Russia to launch a āthird warā in Ukraine. He insists ceding territory would expose cities like Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv to occupation. While Putin is expected to push for Ukrainian withdrawal, Zelensky seeks EU security guarantees and ongoing Western support. U.S. officials say Trump aims to eventually broker direct talks, but no ceasefire proposal so far assures Ukraineās long-term safety.

According to Russian intelligence, Kyiv is preparing a large-scale strike using UAVs and missiles targeting residential areas ā an attack that could be blamed on Moscow to derail peace efforts.

A high-stakes showdown is set to unfold in Alaska as Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump prepare for direct talks that could reshape the global balance of power. With the Ukraine war at a critical juncture, speculation is mounting over whether Trump will strike a deal with Moscow ā and at what cost to Kiev.
Reports suggest territorial swaps are on the table, an idea Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected, vowing never to cede land to Russia. The choice of Alaska ā a symbolic and strategic location once sold by Russia to the United States ā has fueled intrigue, raising questions about the real motives behind the venue. Is this a step toward peace, or the beginning of a dangerous new chapter in the conflict? The world is watching as the stage is set for a potentially history-changing negotiation.

Ukraineās military intelligence (HUR) has confirmed a daring drone strike that destroyed one of Russiaās most advanced radar stations in occupied Crimea. The 98L6 Yenisei radar, crucial to both the S-500 and S-400 air defense systems, was targeted by the elite āPrymaryā (Ghosts) division in a precision operation. HUR said the hit dealt a āsignificant blowā to Moscowās defensive capabilities on the peninsula.
The strike also damaged a Russian fast assault landing craft and two other radar stations during a wave of coordinated attacks. Crimea, seized by Russia in 2014, has seen escalating Ukrainian strikes since the 2022 full-scale invasion, as Kyiv seeks to Cripple Moscowās logistics and air defense networks ahead of key offensives. The loss of the Yenisei radar could leave Russian forces more vulnerable to further Ukrainian operations across the Black Sea region.
