Russia hammers Kyiv in largest missile and drone barrage since war began
Waves of drone and missile attacks targeted Kyiv overnight in the largest aerial attack since Russia's war in Ukraine began, injuring 23 people and inflicting damage across multiple districts. Russia launched 550 drones and missiles across Ukraine overnight, the country's air force said. The majority were Shahed drones, while Russia used 11 missiles in the attack. Throughout the night, journalists in Kyiv heard the constant buzzing of drones overhead and the sound of explosions and intense machine gun fire as Ukrainian forces tried to intercept the aerial assault. Kyiv was the primary target of the attack. At least 23 people were injured, with 14 taken to hospital, according to mayor Vitali Klitschko. Firefighting efforts and debris removal are still ongoing after another Russian strike. This was one of the most large-scale air attacks – deliberately massive and cynical. In total, 550 targets were launched, including at least 330 Russian-Iranian 'shaheds', along with missiles,… — Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa) July 4, 2025 Ukrainian air defences shot down 270 targets, including two cruise missiles. Another 208 targets were lost from radar and presumed jammed. Russia successfully hit eight locations with nine missiles and 63 drones. Debris from intercepted drones fell across at least 33 sites. The attack came hours after President Donald Trump held a call with Russian President Vladimir Putin and made his first public comments on his administration's decision to pause some shipments of weapons to Ukraine. That decision affects munitions, including Patriot missiles, the AIM-7 Sparrow air-to-air missile and shorter-range Stinger missiles. They are needed to counter incoming missiles and drones, and to bring down Russian aircraft. It's been less than a week since Russia's previous largest aerial assault of the war. Ukraine's air force reported that Russia fired 537 drones, decoys and 60 missiles in that attack. Emergency services reported damage in at least five of the capital's 10 districts. In the Solomianskyi district, a five-storey residential building was partially destroyed and the roof of a seven-storey building caught fire. Fires also broke out at a warehouse, a garage complex and an auto repair facility. In Sviatoshynskyi district, a strike hit a 14-storey residential building, sparking a fire. Several vehicles also caught fire nearby. Blazes were also reported at non-residential facilities. An eight-storey building came under attack in the Shevchenkivskyi district, with the first floor sustaining damage. Falling debris was recorded in Darnytskyi and Holosiivskyi areas. Ukraine's national railway operator, Ukrzaliznytsia, said drone strikes damaged rail infrastructure in Kyiv.

A bill setting new limits on asylum-seekers passes in the Dutch parliament
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — A pair of bills cracking down on asylum-seekers wishing to settle in the Netherlands has passed in the Dutch parliament after wrangling and soul-searching by some lawmakers who feared the law would criminalize offering compassionate help to undocumented migrants. The legislation cuts temporary asylum residency from five to three years, indefinitely suspends the issuance of new asylum residency permits and reins in family reunions for people who have been granted asylum. It passed in the lower house late Thursday evening but could still be rejected in the upper house. The Dutch Red Cross has estimated 23,000 to 58,000 people live in the Netherlands without an official right to residence. Taking tough measures to rein in migration was a policy cornerstone for the four-party coalition led by the Party for Freedom of anti-Islam lawmaker Geert Wilders. The coalition collapsed last month after just 11 months in office, and migration is expected to be a key issue ahead of the snap election Oct. 29. Wilders pulled the plug on the coalition saying it was taking too long to enact moves to rein in migration. His coalition partners rejected the criticism, saying they all backed the crackdown. His party currently holds a narrow lead in opinion polls over a center-left two-party bloc that recently agreed to a formal merger. The opposition Christian Democrats withdrew their support for the legislation put to the vote Thursday over a late amendment that would criminalize people living in the Netherlands without a valid visa or asylum ruling — and would also criminalize people and organizations that help such undocumented migrants. The amendment was introduced by a member of Wilders' party and passed narrowly because a small number of opposition lawmakers were not present for the vote. The vote took place in the final session of parliament before lawmakers broke for the summer. The upper house will consider the legislation after it returns from the recess. If Christian Democrats in the upper chamber reject it, the legislation will be returned to the lower house.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Rolls Out Gun Giveaway With Trigger-Happy Rant
Far-right, gun-loving Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Thursday marked the start of the year leading up to the 250th anniversary of the U.S. by launching a fundraising giveaway of 'one of my favorite' firearms, a combat-ready FN M249S PARA. 'America is the greatest country in the world and I fight the nasty 'America last' Democrats in Washington to keep it that way,' the Donald Trump acolyte, who last month briefly broke with the president over his now-passed 'Big, Beautiful Bil,' said in a video that she shared on social media that hit almost every MAGA talking point. 'I fight against gun control, open borders, the trans agenda coming for your kids and women's sports,' continued Greene. 'And I blow away the reckless government spending on my DOGE subcommittee,' she added, also slamming the policies of former President Joe Biden. After making each point, Greene appeared to fire a round. To celebrate 250 years of the red, white, and blue I'm giving away one of my favorite guns, the iconic FN M249S PARA. 🇺🇸Enter here for your chance to WIN: — Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 (@mtgreenee) July 3, 2025 'Why enter to win this gun? Because in America, you can,' she said. In the post, Greene pointed people to the WinRed conservative fundraising website, which detailed the weapon as 'designed for airborne, armored infantry and close quarters combat (CQC) operations with a shorter barrel and collapsible buttstock' with a retail value of $10,058. Hopefuls are asked to contribute donations in exchange for entering the contest, which closes on Sept. 15. In 2022, Greene hosted a competition for someone to join her in hunting feral hogs in Texas. In a video, she likened the wild animals to Democrats.
