NATO Makes ‘Historic’ Ukraine Air Defense Pledge Despite Putin’s Warning | How Will Russia Respond?
In a significant move to bolster Ukraine's defences against relentless Russian airstrikes, NATO countries have pledged to provide five additional strategic air defence systems. This announcement, heralded as a "historic donation," was made by US President Joe Biden during the NATO summit held in Washington, DC, on Tuesday, coinciding with the 75th anniversary of the Western alliance.
A joint statement, endorsed by several NATO members and Ukraine, detailed the contributions.
The United States promised donation of a new Patriot battery and additional tactical air defence systems in the coming months.
Germany promised the Contribution of a new Patriot battery.
In a bold statement, Russian President Vladimir Putin hailed the Oreshnik ballistic missile as a “game-changer” in Russia’s defense capabilities, following its successful use in a strike on a Ukrainian weapons manufacturing facility in Kazan. Putin emphasized that the missile, capable of reaching speeds up to Mach 10, represents a significant leap in missile technology, showcasing Russia’s advancement in hypersonic warfare. The missile's deployment has raised alarms globally, as it is touted as virtually impossible to intercept by even the most advanced Western air defense systems. Putin’s remarks underscore Russia’s growing military might and serve as a stark warning to the West about the evolving balance of power in global defense.

In a bold and alarming statement, Russian President Vladimir Putin has raised global concerns about escalating tensions, warning against the potential onset of World War III. In a recent interview, Putin addressed the growing involvement of the U.S. and NATO in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which he described as intensifying the risks of global war. Dismissing claims that the war has already escalated into World War III, Putin stressed the importance of not frightening the public but acknowledged the increasing dangers. He blamed the West for fueling the crisis and warned that Russia would always respond to any challenges. At the same time, Putin signaled a potential openness to rebuilding ties with the U.S. and NATO, but only on terms that do not compromise Russia’s security and interests. This chilling message serves as a stark reminder of the fragile balance in international relations as the world watches the ongoing geo-political standoff.

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. Russian forces also neutralized five Soviet-made D30 howitzers and four U.S.-made M101 and M119 howitzers. This destruction occurred during a failed Ukrainian counter-attack, leading to significant losses for Kyiv in an ongoing battle for control in the region.

Amid escalating tensions on the frontlines, Russia’s ongoing military campaign has left Ukraine’s defense forces vulnerable, forcing them to make desperate decisions in the face of mounting casualties. In a critical move, Ukraine has been compelled to redeploy its skilled air defense specialists to infantry positions due to severe manpower shortages. This reallocation of personnel has left key defense systems weakened, with some air defense units operating at less than half their full capacity. Meanwhile, Ukraine is sending untrained soldiers to fight on deadly frontlines, raising concerns about their ability to effectively counter Russian advances. As casualties rise and desertion rates climb, Ukraine’s military is under intense pressure to hold the line, but its ability to maintain security and defensive strength is rapidly being tested.

The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions.
