Putin’s Scare in Kharkiv Grows: Zelensky Signs New Law Allowing Prisoners to Join Military
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has ratified a new law allowing certain prisoners to be paroled if they agree to enlist in the country's military.
This legislation, aimed at bolstering Ukraine's military ranks, comes in response to the significant challenges the nation faces in its conflict with Russia.
The details of the new law were published on the official website of the Ukrainian parliament, the Verkhovna Rada.
Initially submitted to the legislature in March, the bill is part of a broader effort by Ukraine to replenish its military forces.
The legislation enables Ukrainian inmates to voluntarily enlist on a contractual basis and serve as long as martial law is in effect.
The law specifically applies to convicts with three years or less remaining on their original prison sentences.
Russia launched deadly airstrikes across Ukraine just hours after ending its unilateral Easter ceasefire. Odesa was hit by a massive overnight drone attack, striking residential buildings, schools, and critical infrastructure. In Zaporizhzhia, Soviet-era glide bombs killed one woman and injured 22 civilians, including children. Ukraine reports over 2,900 ceasefire violations in just days. As Moscow escalates with 54 Shaheed drones in one night, tensions rise ahead of high-stakes talks between Kyiv, Washington, London, and Paris. Zelenskyy slams the ceasefire as a “sham” masking continued aggression.

In a moment charged with geopolitical tension, U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky came face-to-face at the funeral of Pope Francis — their first public encounter since a major diplomatic clash over military aid and wartime accountability. The high-stakes meeting at St. Peter’s Square unfolded under the somber backdrop of a global farewell to the beloved pontiff, but all eyes were on the two leaders as they exchanged cold glances amid a sea of mourners. The funeral, attended by world dignitaries, spiritual leaders, and political heavyweights, became an unexpected stage for a symbolic showdown, as tensions between Washington and Kyiv remain high over the direction of the war effort and future U.S. support. While both leaders paid tribute to the pope’s legacy, their presence under one roof hinted at deeper divides — and possible diplomatic fireworks to come.

Sir Keir Starmer and Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke about ending Russia's "brutal war" on Ukraine in their latest phone call on Easter Monday, as Vladimir Putin said.. Sky News
A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to reverse drastic cuts to Voice of America, ruling the job freezes and funding blocks violated U.S. law and the Constitution. Over 1,300 VOA employees, including nearly 1,000 journalists, were affected. The White House accused VOA of being “anti-Trump,” prompting the crackdown. Judge Royce Lamberth called the damage "irreparable" and cited violations of the International Broadcasting Act. The ruling extends to Radio Free Asia and other networks. Trump is expected to appeal as media watchdogs call this a victory for press freedom.

World leaders including President Trump, Vladimir Putin, Keir Starmer, and Benjamin Netanyahu have strongly condemned the Pahalgam terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir that killed 26 people. Trump expressed unwavering support for Prime Minister Modi and the people of India, calling the attack "heinous." Putin vowed deeper cooperation to fight terrorism, while leaders from the UK, UAE, France, and Iran issued strong messages of solidarity. The United States, under Vice President JD Vance’s ongoing India visit, reaffirmed its commitment to stand with India against all acts of terrorism.

President Trump’s Executive Order 14176 has declassified records tied to the assassinations of JFK, RFK, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. But only JFK’s files have been released so far. As speculation grows around the still-sealed MLK documents, historians and King’s family fear an orchestrated smear campaign under the guise of transparency. The files, linked to COINTELPRO-era surveillance, may contain damaging, decontextualized material. Scholars warn the release could distort public memory and weaponize intelligence files from a time when the FBI sought to discredit civil rights leaders.

President Trump has ignited controversy after stating undocumented immigrants should be deported without trials. Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump claimed the court system can't handle the volume and falsely accused countries like Congo and Venezuela of dumping criminals into the U.S. His remarks challenge the Constitution’s guarantee of due process, drawing fierce backlash from lawmakers and legal experts. Critics are calling it "dictator talk," warning it could set a dangerous precedent. The Supreme Court has already pushed back against similar efforts, and the political fallout is growing fast.

Russian Drone Strikes: Overnight drone strikes struck the Ukrainian cities of Kharkov and Dnepr, sparking widespread fires and damaging multiple industrial and warehouse facilities. Ukrainian emergency services reported six major fires in Kharkov’s industrial districts and injuries to at least 17 people across both cities.

U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance has issued a dramatic ultimatum to Ukraine and Russia: accept America’s explicit peace proposal or risk losing U.S. support entirely. Speaking in India, Vance called for both sides to make concessions, including giving up some territorial claims. Reports suggest the U.S. may accept Russian control over Crimea and parts of eastern Ukraine in a final settlement. As tensions rise and diplomatic efforts stall, Vance's comments signal a major shift in U.S. strategy—toward either a frozen conflict or full withdrawal.
