Putin Slams West and Ukraine for Ignoring Donbass Crisis; Accuses Ukraine of Betrayal | Details

Russian President Vladimir Putin has sharply criticized both Ukraine and its Western allies for their failure to address the ongoing crisis in Donbass, accusing Ukraine of betraying peace efforts. In a recent interview, Putin stated that Russia should have launched military action against Kiev much earlier, warning that any inaction would have been a "crime" against Russia's national interests.

‘They’ll Regret This’: Putin Roars After 9/11-Style Attack in Kazan Hits Civilians, Warns Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stern warning to Ukraine following a dramatic 9/11-style drone attack on Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan. The December 21 assault, involving eight drones, targeted residential buildings and an industrial facility, causing significant damage but no casualties. In response, Putin vowed harsh retaliation, promising that those responsible "will face many times greater destruction in their own country" and "will regret" their actions. He assured Tatarstan's leader, Rustam Minnikhanov, that all damages would be swiftly repaired. The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the attack was carried out in three waves using fixed-wing drones, with air defenses intercepting three and electronic warfare systems neutralizing another three. This unprecedented assault, deep within Russian territory and 1,379 kilometers from Ukraine, has escalated tensions further, drawing sharp condemnation from Moscow. #Putin #KazanAttack #KazanDroneAttack #UkraineConflict #DroneStrike #RussianRetaliation #Tatarstan #PutinWarning #Kiev #RussiaUkraineWar #IDF #TerroristAttack #RussianDefense #CiviliansUnderAttack #KazanStrike #PutinVows Also Read Drone Targets Israeli Prime Minister's House as Strikes in Gaza Result in Over 50 Casualties :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/drone-targets-israeli-prime-minister-house-gaza-strikes-011-3965047.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Downplays Drone 'Attack', States Israel Link Not Established :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-downplays-drone-attack-states-israel-link-not-established-3804551.html?ref=DMDesc Significant Missile and Drone Attack Demolishes Major Ukrainian Power Plant :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/massive-attack-destroys-ukraine-power-plant-011-3797587.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.102~HT.336~GR.125~

Putin Hails Oreshnik Ballistic Missile as ‘Game-Changer’; Big Warning After Massive Kazan Strike

In a bold statement, Russian President Vladimir Putin hailed the Oreshnik ballistic missile as a “game-changer” in Russia’s defense capabilities, following its successful use in a strike on a Ukrainian weapons manufacturing facility in Kazan. Putin emphasized that the missile, capable of reaching speeds up to Mach 10, represents a significant leap in missile technology, showcasing Russia’s advancement in hypersonic warfare. The missile's deployment has raised alarms globally, as it is touted as virtually impossible to intercept by even the most advanced Western air defense systems. Putin’s remarks underscore Russia’s growing military might and serve as a stark warning to the West about the evolving balance of power in global defense. #Putin #OreshnikMissile #RussiaOreshnikMissile #GameChanger #RussianMilitary #HypersonicMissiles #KazanStrike #DefenseInnovation #MilitaryTechnology #RussiaUkraineConflict #Mach10Missile #AdvancedWarfare #StrategicWeapons #RussianDefense #GlobalSecurity #MissileStrike Also Read NATO Chief Mark Rutte Warns of Putin's Intent for Long-Term Confrontation with Europe :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/nato-chief-warns-putin-long-term-confrontation-europe-011-4014089.html?ref=DMDesc Keir Starmer Declares No Intent to Speak with Putin, Emphasises Commitment to Ukraine at G20 Summit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/keir-starmer-no-plans-to-talk-with-putin-supports-ukraine-011-3990289.html?ref=DMDesc Germany's Scholz Engages in First Call with Putin on Ukraine Negotiations in Nearly Two Years :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/germany-scholz-discusses-ukraine-with-putin-call-011-3988751.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.102~HT.334~

Putin’s Kamikaze Drones Tear Through Ukraine’s Military Line: Leopard Tank, APCs, Howitzers Hit

In a decisive and powerful strike, Russian forces have targeted and destroyed a German-made Leopard tank, along with several other key military assets, in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region.

The tank was seen engulfed in flames as it was struck multiple times. In addition to the Leopard tank, two more tanks, an M113 APC, and two pickup trucks were eliminated. Russian forces also neutralized five Soviet-made D30 howitzers and four U.S.-made M101 and M119 howitzers.

Russian Troops Strip Ukraine Of Skilled Defenders; Ukraine Sends Untrained Troops To Deadly Fronts [Video]

Russian Troops Strip Ukraine Of Skilled Defenders; Ukraine Sends Untrained Troops To Deadly Fronts

Amid escalating tensions on the frontlines, Russia’s ongoing military campaign has left Ukraine’s defense forces vulnerable, forcing them to make desperate decisions in the face of mounting casualties. In a critical move, Ukraine has been compelled to redeploy its skilled air defense specialists to infantry positions due to severe manpower shortages. This reallocation of personnel has left key defense systems weakened, with some air defense units operating at less than half their full capacity. Meanwhile, Ukraine is sending untrained soldiers to fight on deadly frontlines, raising concerns about their ability to effectively counter Russian advances. As casualties rise and desertion rates climb, Ukraine’s military is under intense pressure to hold the line, but its ability to maintain security and defensive strength is rapidly being tested. #UkraineCrisis #RussianTroops #SkilledDefenders #UntrainedTroops #UkraineMilitary #FrontlineStruggles #DefenseCrisis #MilitaryShortage #UkraineWar #RussianAdvances #AirDefense #SoldierStruggles #ManpowerCrisis #UkraineDefense #WarTensions Also Read 9/11 Like Attack Takes Place In Russia; All Flights At Kazan Airport Suspended :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/9-11-like-attack-takes-place-in-russia-all-flights-at-kazan-airport-suspended-011-4022565.html?ref=DMDesc NATO Chief Visits Bulgaria to Inspect Joint Military Unit and Urges Enhanced Support for Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/nato-chief-inspects-joint-military-unit-bulgaria-support-ukraine-011-4021049.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Urges Immediate Cease-Fire in Ukraine and Considers US Withdrawal from NATO :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-for-cease-fire-in-ukraine-nato-withdrawal-possible-011-4010085.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.103~
