Ukrainian Soldiers Raise Flags in “Captured” Villages —Russia’s Fake Victory Exposed in Donetsk Push
On July 17, Ukrainian troops raised national flags in the eastern villages of Yalta and Voskresenka, located near the Donetsk-Dnipropetrovsk border—territories Russia had already claimed to have captured.
Fighters from the 31st Separate Mechanized Brigade and the 505th Separate Marine Battalion quietly entered these so-called “occupied” areas and planted the Ukrainian flag, directly challenging Moscow’s narrative of battlefield success.
Footage released by Ukraine’s 20th Corps shows the flag-raising moments and FPV drone strikes targeting Russian positions.
While Russian propaganda reports daily advances, Ukrainian forces are proving that the front lines remain fluid, contested, and fiercely defended.
Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region has come under a “massive attack,” according to regional governor Sergiy Lysak, who confirmed explosions in the key cities of Dnipro and Pavlograd. Residents have been urged to take shelter as Russian missiles and drones pound the region. Until now, Dnipropetrovsk had largely escaped the intensity of frontline battles, but the situation has shifted dramatically. Kyiv admitted that Russian forces have crossed into the region, while Moscow boasted of gaining a foothold there. This marks a dangerous expansion of the war, as the region is not among the five Ukrainian territories Russia has officially claimed. The attack raises fears of an intensified campaign in Ukraine’s industrial heartland, signaling that no part of the country is beyond reach. With explosions shaking Dnipro, Ukraine’s fourth-largest city, the strikes are seen as a chilling escalation that could redraw the battlefield once more.

In a stunning move, President Trump has revoked Kamala Harris’ extended Secret Service protection, stripping away security granted by President Biden after her vice presidency. Harris, the first woman and person of color to serve as Vice President, was set to receive an extra year of coverage due to heightened threats. Effective September 1, her protective agents, property surveillance, and federal threat intelligence will end—just weeks before her national book tour. The decision has sparked backlash from California leaders, raising concerns over safety and mounting private security costs.

On the eve of his China visit, President Vladimir Putin warned the U.S. and the West against trying tocripple Russia’s economy with sanctions. Acknowledging recession risks due to oil curbs and the war in Ukraine, Putin emphasized Russia’s unity with China, declaring joint opposition to “discriminatory sanctions.” As the U.S. and Europe push for a Ukraine peace deal, Putin is instead rallying support from China, India, and Brazil. With record $245B trade between Moscow and Beijing, Putin thanked Xi for backing Russia against isolation.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that Russia is amassing up to 100,000 troops near the eastern stronghold of Pokrovsk, signaling preparations for a major offensive. While Ukrainian forces push back in the Sumy region, Zelensky is pressing NATO allies to accelerate U.S.-made weapons deliveries and provide stronger long-term guarantees. Outlining three security pillars—sustaining Ukraine’s military, NATO-style commitments, and sanctions on Russia—Zelensky stressed that Ukraine’s future stability also depends on EU membership. Moscow, however, rejected the plan, warning foreign peacekeepers would be seen as intervention.

On Ukraine’s 34th Independence Day, Russian forces capture key villages in Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk, escalating the war on the eastern front. While Kyiv marks freedom from Soviet rule, the battlefield tells a harsher story, with Russian troops advancing meter by meter, Ukrainian defenses tested, and no breakthroughs from international diplomacy. From nuclear plant incidents in Kursk to stalled peace talks, the conflict continues to claim territory and intensify uncertainty for civilians and soldiers alike.

The world held its breath as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky delivered his opening statement live from the White House, marking the most dramatic moment of his U.S. visit. Standing alongside Donald Trump and surrounded by Europe’s top leaders, Zelensky’s words carried the weight of a nation at war. With Russian bombs raining down in Donetsk and peace talks hanging by a thread, his address was more than just diplomatic—it was a direct plea for survival, sovereignty, and solidarity. The Ukrainian leader framed the war as a global battle for freedom, warning that concessions to Moscow would only embolden aggression. As Trump hinted at compromises with Putin and European leaders pressed for unity, Zelensky’s statement set the tone for one of the most consequential summits in years. The silence that followed in the White House was not just respect—it was recognition of history being written.

Washington’s high-stakes pressure campaign against India has backfired. Despite unprecedented tariffs and repeated threats over Russian oil imports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has refused to bend. Russian crude still accounts for nearly one-third of India’s imports, and refiners show no signs of slowing down. Reports suggest Modi even ignored four calls from Donald Trump, signaling India’s sovereignty is not for sale. Instead of bowing, New Delhi is deepening its BRICS diplomacy — sending top aides to Moscow, hosting Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi, and preparing for a landmark trip to China where Modi will meet Putin at the SCO summit. For the US, the outcome is bitter: higher prices for its own consumers, while India expands its strategic clout. As global power balances shift, Modi has made it clear — India won’t be bullied.

Russia has flatly denied any agreement on an air ceasefire with Ukraine, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declaring “no deals have been reached.” The rejection came amid speculation of a temporary truce after the Alaska peace talks with Trump. Instead, Russia intensified its aerial assault, launching nearly 600 drones and 31 missiles overnight on August 28. Kyiv was hit hardest, with hypersonic Kinzhal strikes killing at least 18 civilians, including 12 in Darnytskyi, as the war enters an even deadlier phase.

NATO Chief Mark Rutte, has delivered a stark warning to the West after Russia’s latest deadly strikes on Kiev. Speaking in Brussels, Rutte declared: “We cannot be naive about Russia,” emphasizing that Moscow remains an existential threat to European security. His words come as Ukrainian officials report heavy damage from missile and drone barrages across the capital, killing civilians and crippling infrastructure. Rutte, set to take over NATO leadership, is pushing allies to maintain unity and step up military support for Ukraine, warning that hesitation only strengthens the Kremlin. The statement signals a hardening Western stance amid growing concerns that Russia is expanding its long war strategy while testing NATO’s resolve. With Ukraine’s battlefield struggles and internal political rifts in Europe and the US, Rutte’s message is clear: NATO cannot afford illusions when facing Moscow’s aggression.
