VIDEO: Russia-Ukraine UNLEASH Deadly Drone Attack On Each Other Ahead of Trump-Putin Alaska Meet
Russia and Ukraine exchanged massive overnight drone attacks just days before the planned Trump-Putin peace summit in Alaska.
Ukraine’s air force reported Russia launched 100 drones, 70 of which were intercepted, while 30 struck 12 locations.
Russia claimed to have downed 126 Ukrainian drones in the same period.
One person was killed in Saratov when a drone struck near a residential building, damaging an industrial site.
Ukraine confirmed the attack targeted a major oil refinery supplying Russian forces.
August has seen a surge in Ukrainian drone operations, while Russia’s aerial assault remains intense.
The violence unfolds as both sides maneuver diplomatically ahead of Friday’s high-profile meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, a summit that could shift the trajectory of the war.
Russia has issued a stark new warning to the United States over what it calls an alarming surge in US missile systems positioned in regions with a “direct impact” on Russia’s security. Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov declared that Moscow is abandoning its self-imposed moratorium on missile deployments in response, accusing Washington of pushing the situation toward dangerous escalation.
Ryabkov also hinted at the existence of other advanced Russian weapons beyond the newly unveiled Oreshnik missile system, saying only that “we did not waste time” in preparing them. He refused to disclose further details, adding to the intrigue surrounding Russia’s military capabilities. The statement underscores Moscow’s growing unease over NATO-linked deployments near its borders and sets the stage for a new era of military posturing. With tensions already heightened by the Ukraine conflict, this latest warning raises the risk of an intensified arms race between the world’s largest nuclear powers.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has reportedly not been invited to the upcoming Trump–Putin peace summit in Alaska on August 15, raising concerns of a diplomatic sidelining. White House sources say the meeting will focus on U.S.–Russia dialogue at Moscow’s request. While Trump has floated territorial swaps as a path to peace, Zelensky rejects the idea, citing constitutional limits. The Kremlin insists talks must address Crimea and four regions annexed in 2022, while Ukraine refuses any concessions, leaving negotiations at an impasse.

President Donald Trump has nominated State Department spokesperson and longtime Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce as the next U.S. deputy representative to the United Nations. Bruce, a fierce defender of Trump’s “America First” policies, has served as State Department spokesperson since his inauguration in January. Known for defending the administration’s tough stances on immigration, Russia’s war in Ukraine, and Israel’s Gaza offensive, Bruce is expected to bring combative rhetoric to the UN stage.
Her appointment will require Senate confirmation, where Republicans hold a majority. Trump praised her “fantastic job” at State, while Bruce called the role an honor and vowed to continue advancing U.S. priorities abroad. She will serve under Mike Waltz, Trump’s pick for UN envoy, whose confirmation is pending. The move signals Trump’s push for loyalist voices in high-profile diplomatic posts at a time of intense geopolitical tensions.

Just days before Donald Trump’s planned high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin, European allies have thrown a wrench into his peace plan. Leaders of the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Finland, and the EU issued a joint statement insisting that any talks with Russia must involve Ukraine’s leadership. President Zelensky has rejected Trump’s suggestion of possible territorial swaps, calling any deal made without Ukraine “dead decisions.” With Putin still refusing direct talks with Kyiv, tensions rise as the White House faces backlash over reports of concessions on Crimea and Donbas.

Bishara Bahbah, a key figure in former President Trump’s Gaza negotiating team, has resigned, accusing the U.S. and Israel of sabotaging near-successful ceasefire talks with Hamas. Bahbah claims negotiators in Qatar were ordered home by U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff just as Hamas was close to accepting deal terms. He blames Prime Minister Netanyahu’s hardline Gaza takeover plan for collapsing peace efforts. A former “Arab Americans for Trump” leader, Bahbah vows to continue independent mediation as Israel advances toward full control of Gaza.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is urgently rallying European leaders ahead of Donald Trump’s high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin. Speaking with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Zelensky warned of “the danger of Russia’s plan” to force Ukraine into discussing the “impossible” — territorial exchanges that would favor Moscow’s future war ambitions.
While Trump is expected to sit down with Putin soon, Zelensky is pushing for maximum coordination with the UK, US, EU, and other allies to secure a “truly lasting peace” and avoid any deal that simply reconfigures the conflict. He also emphasized Ukraine’s progress toward EU membership, warning that Russia has not shifted its stance on ending the war and continues to fuel the fighting.

The White House is considering inviting Volodymyr Zelenskyy to a meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska, according to reports in the US. Sky News
Donald Trump’s bold campaign vow to end the Russia–Ukraine war “within 24 hours” has unraveled into six months of shifting deadlines, broken ultimatums, and rising tensions. Since taking office in January 2025, Trump has suspended U.S. military aid to Ukraine, sidelined Kyiv in talks, reversed support for NATO expansion, and repeatedly clashed with President Volodymyr Zelensky while trying to woo Vladimir Putin. From a “first 48 hours” promise, to 30-day, two-week, 50-day, and finally August 8 deadlines, each reset has produced no ceasefire — only intensified Russian attacks and deepening mistrust. With his latest deadline passing without results, Trump now faces mounting domestic and international pressure as he prepares for his first face-to-face meeting with Putin since the war began, leaving the world to question whether peace is possible or if this is just another clock set to reset.

A Wall Street Journal report claims Vladimir Putin has agreed to meet Donald Trump and halt the Ukraine war if Kyiv surrenders its eastern territories, including Donetsk and Crimea. The proposal, relayed via U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, demands Ukraine’s withdrawal from key regions. European leaders and President Zelensky strongly reject territorial concessions, citing Ukraine’s constitutional ban on such moves. Trump’s push for land swaps is straining U.S.-Ukraine ties and creating friction within NATO ahead of a possible Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska.
