In a rare and high-stakes diplomatic exchange, Russian President Vladimir Putin and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz reconnected for the first time in nearly two years, engaging in a detailed and frank hour-long conversation. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov characterised the call as a candid discussion where both leaders outlined their positions on the Ukraine conflict. Putin, speaking in Russian through a translator despite his German proficiency, reiterated Moscow’s demands for Ukraine’s neutrality, demilitarisation, and the recognition of Russian-annexed territories. Scholz, facing a political crisis at home, pressed for a withdrawal of Russian troops and reaffirmed Germany’s strong support for Ukraine. The timing of the call, coinciding with key international events, marks a pivotal moment in Russia-Germany relations as diplomatic tensions continue to mount.

In one of the deadliest attacks in months, Russian forces launched a devastating assault on Ukraine using 120 drones and 90 missiles, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. The attack, which targeted key infrastructure across Ukrainian cities, is being described as the most intense bombardment in recent weeks. Ukrainian officials confirmed that various types of drones, including Iranian-made Shaheds, as well as cruise and ballistic missiles, were deployed in the strike. President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that Ukrainian defenses were able to shoot down 140 air targets, but the attack caused significant damage to civilian infrastructure and left dozens injured. In Mykolaiv, two people were killed and six others injured, including two children, when a drone hit the city. In Odesa, another strike caused widespread destruction, killing two and disrupting power and water supplies in the region.

Trump is reportedly considering Richard Grenell for the role of special envoy for the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Known for his diplomatic experience and controversial views, Grenell could play a crucial role in facilitating peace negotiations. He opposes Ukraine’s NATO membership and has advocated for "autonomous zones" in conflict areas. Trump’s plan includes halting Ukraine's NATO aspirations and establishing a freeze along the front line to advance a peaceful resolution.

The United Kingdom has issued a strong warning, declaring its military is prepared to join the fight against Russia “tonight” if Moscow escalates aggression in Eastern Europe. Lieutenant General Sir Rob Magowan assured the Commons Defence Committee of the British Army's readiness, stating that any Russian invasion would be met with immediate resistance. Amid growing tensions over Ukraine, where Kyiv has launched strikes using US-supplied Atacms missiles, and concerns about NATO's eastern flank, the UK has bolstered its presence in Estonia and remains committed to defending Europe. As fears of a broader conflict loom, the possibility of World War III grows ever more tangible.

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.
