In a dramatic escalation, Ukraine launched a wave of drone strikes on southern Russia, targeting Sochi — the famed Black Sea resort city — and its nearby Sirius technological and athletic hub. At least one woman was killed and another seriously injured when drone debris fell in Sochi’s 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. Moscow’s 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.

Ukraine has issued a stark warning to Belarus amid fears that upcoming Russia-Belarus joint military drills could escalate the war. The Zapad-2025 exercises, set for September, will feature drones, electronic warfare, and Russia’s Oreshnik hypersonic missile—previously compared to a low-yield nuclear strike. Kyiv fears Belarus may provide direct support to Russia, with the border just 100 km away. NATO has responded with 30,000 troops deployed near Poland’s border, while Moscow accuses NATO of using the drills as a pretext for escalation.
