In a significant step towards enhancing defense relations, Russia and India have agreed to further strengthen their military cooperation, including participation in joint exercises and strategic knowledge-sharing. This agreement, made during a meeting of the India-Russia Inter-Governmental Commission on Military and Military-Technical Cooperation (IRIGC-M&MTC) in Moscow, is aimed at improving operational coordination between the two forces. The announcement comes just days ahead of Indian Minister of Defense Rajnath Singh's visit to Moscow, where he will hold high-level talks and commission a stealth frigate for the Indian Navy. This move further solidifies the longstanding defense partnership between India and Russia, which includes joint development of advanced military systems like the BrahMos cruise missile, the S-400 air-defense system, and more.

In a devastating escalation of hostilities, a Russian S-400 missile struck a police building in Kharkiv, Ukraine, on Friday, resulting in the tragic death of at least one officer and injuring dozens more. The attack has drawn condemnation and heightened fears of increasing violence in the region. According to the Ukrainian Interior Ministry, the strike killed a 43-year-old police colonel and left 30 police officers, one first responder, and nine civilians wounded, with some injuries reported as critical.
As investigations continue, the specifics of the targeted facility remain undisclosed, but regional authorities confirm significant collateral damage, including impacts on nearby residential areas. This missile strike marks a notable instance of Russia's alleged use of surface-to-air missiles for ground attacks, raising serious questions about the safety of civilian infrastructure amidst ongoing military operations.

Russian President Vladimir Putin escalated the war with a revenge-driven drone assault on Ukraine, launching more than 100 drones on December 22, a day after Ukraine struck high-rise buildings in Kazan, Russia. The attack targeted multiple Ukrainian cities, including Kyiv, Kherson, Mykolayiv, and Zaporizhzhya, causing significant damage to businesses and apartment buildings. Ukrainian air defenses managed to intercept 52 of the 103 drones, preventing casualties, though the strikes intensified fears of further infrastructure destruction. This deadly retaliation comes after a devastating attack in Kazan, Russia, on December 21, where Ukrainian forces targeted the capital of Tatarstan, marking a notable escalation in the conflict.

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. He pointed to the failure of the Minsk agreements, which were intended to provide special status to the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, but were never fully implemented by 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.

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. Using kamikaze drones, the Russian military identified the Leopard tank through reconnaissance UAVs before launching a series of devastating drone attacks. 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.
