Russia SMASHES Ukraine's 'MOST-POTENT' Weapon After Drones Fired Toward Putin Home
'We Couldn't Stop All Missiles...': Zelensky Admits Major Failure As Russia Hammers Ukraine
Ukrainian President Zelensky called Russia's massive overnight missile and drone barrage a 'cynical strike on ordinary cities,' revealing that over 400 drones and 40 missiles were launched—many intercepted, but not all. At least four civilians died and 50 were injured. Zelensky warned that global silence and division are allowing Putin to prolong the war, exploiting delays in pressure from the international community. In his address, Zelenskyy demanded diplomacy, security guarantees, and a real ceasefire plan, even as U.S. President Trump confirmed he would "let them fight" for now.#zelensky #putinattacks #ukrainewar #russianstrikes #dronewarfare #missilebarrage #trumponukraine #ceasefirenow #natoresponse #ukrainenews #russiaukraineconflict #globalpressure

Russian Troops Seize Key Highway Near Sumy As Ukraine Struggles To Hold The Line | Watch Russian troops have reportedly seized part of a key highway near Yunakovka in Ukraine's Sumy region, limiting Kyiv's ability to retake earlier lost positions. Military expert Andrey Marochko said the captured stretch of road, once used by Ukrainian forces for resupply, is now under Russian fire control. Ongoing clashes in the area have intensified as Moscow pushes for strategic gains. Marochko noted Russian forces had previously entered Yunakovka for reconnaissance, indicating a planned advance.

Usyk wants Trump to 'live in his house' to witness war
World heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk has offered Donald Trump the chance to live in his house in a bid to help the United States president understand the war in Ukraine. Trump had vowed to resolve the conflict between Russia and Ukraine "in 24 hours" if he was elected president. But there has been no end to Russia's invasion since Trump returned to the White House in 2024. Ukrainian boxer Usyk, who has been a tireless campaigner for peace in his homeland, believes Trump needs to have a clearer view of the dire situation if he is to find a solution to the crisis. The 38-year-old has urged the president to join him at his house in Ukraine to see for himself the damage done by the war. "I advise American President Donald Trump to come to Ukraine and live in my house for one week," Usyk told BBC Sport on Sunday. "Only one week. I will give him my house. Live please in Ukraine and watch what is going on every night. "Every night there are bombs and flights above my house. Bombs, rocket. Every night. It's enough." Trump clashed with Ukraine leader Volodymyr Zelensky during a contentious summit meeting in the Oval Office in February. Trump warned Zelensky to show more gratitude for America's help in peace talks before telling him to leave the White House. Asked if Trump could be convinced to change his opinion, Usyk said: "I don't know. Maybe he'll understand, maybe he won't." Usyk, who has won all 23 of his professional bouts, is currently in a training camp to prepare for a rematch with IBF champion Daniel Dubois on July 19 at Wembley. But the WBC, WBA and WBO heavyweight champion said the war is never far from his mind. "I worry about what happens in my country. It's very bad because Ukrainian people have died," he said. "It's not just military people, children, women, grandmothers and grandfathers, too." smg/kca/pi

Russia awaits Ukraine's confirmation on a planned exchange of dead fighters, officials say
AP In this photo, taken from video distributed by Russian Defense Ministry Press Service on Sunday, June 8, 2025, orderlies shows an open refrigerator of the first convoy, carrying bodies of Ukrainian soldiers for repatriation, at an exchange area near Novaya Guta, Belarus, for the beginning of a large-scale exchange between Russia and Ukraine. Russian officials said Sunday that Moscow is still awaiting official confirmation from Ukraine that a planned exchange of 6,000 bodies of soldiers killed in action will take place, reiterating allegations that Kyiv had postponed the swap. On the front line in the war, Russia said that it had pushed into Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region. Russian state media quoted Lt. Gen. Alexander Zorin, a representative of the Russian negotiating group, as saying that Russia delivered the first batch of 1,212 bodies of Ukrainian soldiers to the exchange site at the border and is waiting for confirmation from Ukraine, but that there were "signals" that the process of transferring the bodies would be postponed until next week. Citing Zorin on her Telegram channel, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova asked whether it was Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's "personal decision not to take the bodies of the Ukrainians" or whether "someone from NATO prohibited it." Ukrainian authorities said plans agreed upon during direct talks in Istanbul on Monday were proceeding accordingly, despite what Ukraine's intelligence chief, Kyrylo Budanov, called Russian attempts to "unilaterally dictate the parameters of the exchange process." "We are carefully adhering to the agreements reached in Istanbul. Who, when and how to exchange should not be someone's sole decision. Careful preparation is ongoing. Pressure and manipulation are unacceptable here," he said in a statement on Telegram on Sunday. "The start of repatriation activities based on the results of the negotiations in Istanbul is scheduled for next week, as authorized persons were informed about on Tuesday," the statement said. "Everything is moving according to plan, despite the enemy's dirty information game." Russia and Ukraine each accused the other on Saturday of endangering plans to sw6,000 bodies of soldiers killed in action, which was agreed upon during the talks in Istanbul, which otherwise made no progress toward ending the war. Vladimir Medinsky, an aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin, led the Russian delegation. Medinsky said that Kyiv called a last-minute halt to an imminent swap. In a Telegram post on Saturday, he said that refrigerated trucks carrying more than 1,200 bodies of Ukrainian troops from Russia had already reached the agreed exchange site at the border when the news came. According to the main Ukrainian authority dealing with such swaps, no date had been set for repatriating the bodies. In a statement on Saturday, the agency also accused Russia of submitting lists of prisoners of war for repatriation that didn't correspond to agreements reached on Monday. It wasn't immediately possible to reconcile the conflicting claims. Russia says it is heading into Dnipropetrovsk region In other developments, Russia's Defense Ministry said Sunday that its forces had reached the western edge of the Donetsk region, one of the four provinces Russia illegally annexed in 2022, and that troops were "developing the offensive" in the neighboring Dnipropetrovsk region. This would be the first time Russian troops had pushed into the region in the more than three-year-old war. Ukraine didn't immediately respond to the claim, and The Associated Press couldn't immediately verify it. Russia's advance would mark a significant setback for Ukraine's already stretched forces as peace talks remain stalled and Russian troops have made incremental gains elsewhere. Russia and Ukraine exchange aerial attacks One person was killed and another seriously wounded in Russian aerial strikes on the eastern Ukrainian Kharkiv region. These strikes came after Russian attacks targeted the regional capital, also called Kharkiv, on Saturday. Regional police in Kharkiv said on Sunday that the death toll from Saturday's attacks had increased to six people. More than two dozen others were wounded. Russia fired a total of 49 exploding drones and decoys and three missiles overnight, Ukraine's air force said Sunday. Forty drones were shot down or electronically jammed. Russia's defense ministry said that its forces shot down 61 Ukrainian drones overnight, including near the capital. Five people were wounded Sunday in a Ukrainian drone attack on a parking lot in Russia's Belgorod region, according to regional Gov. Vyacheslav Gladkov. Two people were wounded when a Ukrainian drone attack sparked a fire at a chemical plant in the Tula region, local authorities said. Russian authorities said early Sunday that Vnukovo and Domodedovo airports, two international airports serving Moscow, temporarily suspended flights because of a Ukrainian drone attack. Later in the day, Domodedovo halted flights temporarily for a second time, along with Zhukovsky airport.
