An African delegation on a peace mission to Ukraine headed by South African President Cyril Ramaphosa was greeted with explosions and forced to shelter in bunkers amid air strikes on the capital Kyiv.
Ukrainian officials said the attack was repelled by air defenses as the leaders prepared to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky Friday, as part of an effort to negotiate an end to Russia’s war on the country.
Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico responds harshly to Ukrainian President Zelensky's accusations, declaring that he is not Zelensky's servant. Fico also warns of cutting electricity supplies to Ukraine if the country halts Russian gas transit to Slovakia, setting a January 1 deadline for the decision.

Azerbaijan Airlines flight J2-8243, an Embraer 190, crashed near Aktau, Kazakhstan, on December 25, 2024. The plane, which had been diverted from Grozny due to poor weather conditions and Ukrainian drone attacks, attempted an emergency landing but crashed, killing 38 of the 67 passengers. Azerbaijan Airlines (AZAL) has cited "technical external interference" as the likely cause of the accident, though initial reports suggest a possible bird strike or an oxygen cylinder explosion. The incident is under investigation by Azerbaijani and Kazakh authorities.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has endorsed Slovakia as a neutral venue for potential peace talks to resolve the Ukraine conflict. In a significant divergence from other EU nations, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has maintained a stance against supplying arms to Ukraine, positioning Slovakia as a possible mediator. Meanwhile, Putin remains firm on the “territorial realities” that Ukraine must accept, including the loss of key regions. As the world speculates on the future of negotiations, can Slovakia bring both sides to the table, or is this move another strategic play by Moscow?

In a bold move, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov rejects France's proposal for secret ceasefire talks on Ukraine, emphasizing that any discussions must involve Kyiv. Lavrov stresses that without Ukraine's participation, such initiatives are not taken seriously. This aggressive stance highlights Russia's position in the ongoing Ukraine conflict, where diplomatic efforts are constantly shaped by the dynamics of international involvement. Lavrov's comments send a clear message that Russia will not engage in behind-the-scenes negotiations without the key player—Ukraine—being part of the process.

The FSB has exposed a major espionage operation involving a Russian national who was selling top-secret military data to Ukraine. The suspect, a man in his mid-40s, was apprehended after confessing to leaking sensitive information about military technology and the coordinates of Russian military bases.

The arrest has raised alarms within Russia, with the FSB stressing that the betrayal puts Russian forces in Ukraine at heightened risk. If convicted, the suspect faces a minimum of 12 years in prison. The investigation is ongoing, with more details expected to emerge.

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.

The ongoing Russia-Ukraine war has seen escalating tensions, with the possibility of a pivotal shift in 2025. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may face intense international pressure, potentially forcing him to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin for negotiations. With heavy losses on both sides and the global focus shifting, Zelensky could be compelled to make difficult decisions regarding Ukraine’s future, possibly including territorial concessions or a ceasefire agreement.
