A damning UN report has placed Israel and Russia “on notice” over credible allegations of sexu@l violence by their armed forces in conflict zones. UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned that both nations could be formally added to the blacklist of violators in next year’s report if patterns persist. The findings cite abuses by Israeli security forces against Palestinian detainees, including forced nud!!ty and genital violence, while Russia faces similar scrutiny in Ukraine. In a historic first, Hamas has also been added to the list for sexu@l violence during the October 7 massacre and against hostages, following evidence from Project Dinah

Russian forces are pushing deeper into eastern Ukraine, advancing toward key cities including Dobropillia and Pokrovsk. Fierce clashes have erupted along the frontline, with Ukrainian troops deploying reserves to contain rapid Russian infiltrations. The intensified offensive comes just days before the planned Trump-Putin summit, a timing that military analysts say could strengthen Moscow’s leverage in negotiations. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has rejected any territorial concessions, vowing to defend every inch of Ukrainian land.

President Trump has delayed a planned increase in tariffs on Chinese goods, easing U.S.–China trade tensions and extending the current truce. The decision, made just hours before the deadline, followed trade talks in Stockholm. On the streets of Shanghai, residents view the move as a pragmatic step toward avoiding economic harm. Many believe it signals a willingness to negotiate rather than escalate. Locals, including leasing worker Lin Peng and student Zhang Xuan, say cooperation could lead both nations toward stability and shared economic goals.

Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff has come under fire after reportedly misinterpreting Russian President Vladimir Putin’s ceasefire terms, according to German outlet BILD. Sources say Putin demanded full control of Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson while offering only a limited halt to attacks on energy sites and major cities—not a full ceasefire. Witkoff allegedly believed Putin was proposing a withdrawal from Ukrainian territories, a misunderstanding that baffled both European partners and members of Trump’s own team.
High-level calls between U.S. and European officials exposed confusion, internal disagreements, and a lack of unified strategy. With Trump’s Alaska meeting with Putin looming on August 15, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reaffirmed that Ukraine will never surrender its land. The revelations raise concerns about U.S. negotiation credibility, European involvement, and the risks of misreading Moscow’s intentions in the ongoing war.

In a high-stakes geopolitical maneuver, Ukraine, the U.S., and key European allies are set to meet in the U.K. ahead of Donald Trump’s planned summit with Vladimir Putin, Axios reports. The urgent talks aim to align positions before Trump attempts to broker a controversial peace deal to end the Ukraine war. U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff recently met Putin in Moscow, with conflicting reports emerging on possible territorial concessions — ranging from ceding Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea, to freezing the conflict along current frontlines.
Some leaders believe Putin may even relinquish Zaporizhzhia and Kherson. Trump has hinted at “territory swapping,” raising fears in Kyiv over sovereignty. Zelensky insists any territorial changes must comply with Ukrainian law, potentially requiring a referendum. With secrecy, conflicting proposals, and high tensions, the U.K. talks could shape the war’s endgame — or ignite new disputes.

Two civilians were killed and at least 10 injured—including four children—after a massive Russian strike barrage on Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia region. Governor Ivan Fedorov confirmed that 567 attacks were carried out in 24 hours across 16 settlements. Nine buildings were damaged in the Zaporizhzhia city district alone. As rescue operations scramble to contain the fallout, the latest assault underscores Russia’s continued aggression on front-line Ukrainian cities. Emergency responders remain on-site as fears of more strikes loom.
Though Russia has not commented, both Moscow and Kyiv routinely deny targeting civilians, despite widespread destruction in populated areas. Zaporizhzhia, home to Europe’s largest nuclear plant, has become a battleground of immense strategic importance. The escalating situation brings fresh global attention to the human toll of the war that has killed thousands of Ukrainian civilians since 2022.

Russia launched a devastating wave of missile strikes on Kyiv and Mykolaiv after Ukraine unleashed drone attacks across Russian military and industrial hubs. Explosions rocked both nations in an explosive two‑day escalation, including a drone strike that shut down the crucial Central Asia–Center gas pipeline in Volgograd—vital for Russia’s military energy needs. Ukraine targeted facilities like the Elektropribor plant in Penza and a Shahed-drone airbase in Primorsko-Akhtarsk. Moscow scrambled quickly, intercepting 112 Ukrainian drones and responding with 53 of its own. The retaliation struck civilian zones, reducing homes in Mykolaiv to rubble and seriously wounding several. This sharp escalation follows a Russian drone assault on Kyiv that killed 31 people just hours earlier. With energy infrastructure crippled and cities ablaze, the tit-for-tat violence underscores how the Ukraine war threatens to spiral across borders—bringing military escalation and civilian suffering to new heights.

Mass protests have erupted in Kyiv, Lviv, and other Ukrainian cities despite martial law, with demonstrators accusing President Zelensky of betraying democratic ideals. Anger surged after parliament passed a law curtailing two key anti-corruption agencies, handing more power to a presidentially appointed prosecutor general. Critics warn the move threatens Ukraine’s EU membership path, undermines reforms, and signals a drift toward authoritarianism. Protesters chanted “We chose Europe, not autocracy,” while Zelensky defended the law as a way to remove Russian influence, deepening divisions amid an ongoing war with Moscow.

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.

Russia has launched a devastating aerial onslaught across Ukraine, firing 623 missiles and nearly 600 drones in just 48 hours. Western cities like Lviv, Chernivtsi, and Lutsk faced their heaviest bombardment yet, with Shahed drones striking for a third consecutive night. Dozens are dead or injured, as terrified families fled barefoot into shelters. Zelensky warns Russia could escalate to 1,000 drones daily, urging the West for advanced air defenses and sanctions. Ukraine's skies are under siege-nowhere is safe anymore.

A horrifying shooting incident rocked a McDonald’s in the central Ukrainian city of Cherkasy on August 7. An unidentified man opened fire inside the restaurant, sparking panic among customers and staff. Law enforcement and special forces swiftly evacuated the building. In a shocking turn, the gunman locked himself in the restroom and shot himself. He was later hospitalized. No other injuries have been reported, and the motive behind the shooting remains unknown as investigations continue.

Russia has launched its largest aerial attack on Ukraine since the war began, according to Ukrainian officials. Overnight, a staggering 537 aerial weapons — including 477 drones and decoys, and 60 missiles — were fired at targets across Ukraine.
Ukraine's air force reported that 249 were shot down and 226 were likely disrupted by electronic jamming. Yuriy Ihnat, spokesperson for Ukraine’s air force, called the strike “the most massive air attack” yet. Areas far from the frontlines, including western Ukraine, were hit. Poland scrambled jets to protect its airspace. Casualties included one dead in Kherson and six injured in Cherkasy, including a child. This assault follows a wave of similar attacks earlier this month, which had already been labelled the most powerful at that point in the war. Damage was reported in Kharkiv, where multiple residential buildings and houses were struck. The escalation signals a grim turn in the nearly three-year conflict.
