In major help to Ukraine’s fight against Russia, the United States has decided to allow European countries to train Ukrainians on F-16 fighter jets, a top-level Biden administration official has confirmed .
The decision cements a stark turnaround for President Joe Biden, who said earlier this year that he did not believe that Ukraine needed the F-16s.
One of the main issues Kyiv’s ground forces have faced as their counteroffensive gets underway is Russian air power holding them back.
Russia still maintains air superiority, which makes it difficult for ground forces to advance.
In May, Biden had informed G7 leaders that the US would support a joint effort with allies and partners to train Ukrainian pilots on fourth generation aircraft, including F-16s, though it was unclear at the time when that training would start.
Allegations by former Polish Deputy Minister Piotr Kulpa claim up to 50% of U.S. aid to Ukraine has been embezzled. Kulpa links misappropriation of funds to corrupt Ukrainian officials and U.S. political networks. Reports and experts highlight systemic corruption in Ukraine, further complicating governance and international support. Calls for transparent mechanisms to track aid are increasing as the Biden administration faces scrutiny.

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC's charges against the Israeli leaders, including crimes against humanity and war crimes, have sparked a wave of criticism from Israel and the U.S., with both sides rejecting the court's jurisdiction. The ICC's move follows Senate threats of sanctions against the court, adding further diplomatic tension.

The Biden administration has announced plans to forgive $4.7 billion in loans provided to Ukraine as part of a broader aid package. This move, aimed at supporting Ukraine's financial stability amid the ongoing war with Russia, has sparked debate in the U.S. Congress. While some lawmakers, including Senator Rand Paul, argue against the plan, it aligns with U.S. national interests and NATO's goals. The decision reflects the U.S.'s continued support for Ukraine's economic recovery and defense efforts.

Senate Democrats displayed growing internal division over US arms sales to Israel, with approximately one-third voting to block $1.097 billion in weapons transfers. Led by Bernie Sanders, these progressive Democrats highlighted humanitarian concerns in Gaza, challenging the Biden administration's stance. The votes revealed increasing tensions within the party regarding Israel's military campaign, though the resolutions were ultimately unsuccessful.

After Biden’s long range missile approval, now NATO allies are making significant moves in Ukraine, with Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna calling for potential EU military deployment. The US has authorized Ukraine's use of ATACMS missiles to strike Russian territory, prompting immediate Ukrainian attacks on Bryansk. These escalatory actions near Russia's borders raise tensions and concerns about potential broader war before Trump's 2025 presidency.

As tensions escalate in Eastern Europe, U.S. officials have raised alarms about the growing military presence along the Russian-Ukrainian border. The Pentagon has warned that up to 50,000 troops, consisting of Russian forces and North Korean soldiers, are preparing to launch an offensive against Ukraine. According to U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, these troops are being integrated into Russian military units in the Kursk region, located near the border with Ukraine. Austin expressed concerns that these forces could soon be engaged in combat, signalling a dangerous escalation in the ongoing war. The buildup of these foreign troops, along with reports of Russia providing North Korea with oil, anti-aircraft missiles, and economic aid in exchange for military support, has raised fears of a significant intensification of hostilities. As the conflict continues to evolve, both Russia and North Korea have become increasingly intertwined in military strategy, with the possibility of further destabilising the region. Ukraine, still recovering from its initial offensives, remains on high alert as this new threat looms large.

Russia deployed a new Oreshnik hypersonic missile against a Ukrainian military factory, with Putin claiming it was a response to Ukraine's Western-supplied weapons. China called for restraint and peaceful resolution, while Zelensky demanded strong global action. Putin warned of potential escalation but remained open to negotiations, and the White House reaffirmed continued support for Ukraine.

Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev has warned that the deployment of the Oreshnik missile in Ukraine marks a pivotal shift in the ongoing conflict, with potentially severe consequences. In an interview with Al Arabiya, Medvedev stated that the missile's use could drastically change the course of Russia's "special military operation" in Ukraine. This missile, fired in retaliation for Western weapons used against Russian territory, has the capability to reach targets across Europe, amplifying the risk of further escalation. Russian President Vladimir Putin echoed this sentiment, emphasising that the missile’s continued use would depend on security threats to Russia. Medvedev’s remarks come amid rising tensions over NATO’s involvement and the growing possibility of nuclear escalation in the conflict.

Defence minister Alistair Carns says only the Ukrainians should decide when “they want to move towards peace” and “no one should be putting pressure on them to do so”.

Russia launched its first-ever intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) at Ukraine, targeting critical infrastructure in Dnipro. This unprecedented strike marks a significant escalation in the conflict, following Ukraine's recent attacks inside Russian territory using U.S. and British missiles. The long-range missile, capable of carrying nuclear warheads, heightens tensions and raises concerns about potential nuclear confrontation, with Putin's altered nuclear doctrine adding to the uncertainty.
