In a surprising move, Russian President Vladimir Putin thanked Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for his critical role in orchestrating a historic U.S.-Russia prisoner swap.

The swap, which involved 24 detainees, unfolded after nearly a year of secret negotiations, with Turkey's President Erdogan playing a pivotal role as mediator.

Russian missiles rained down on Odesa’s historic center, striking a UNESCO World Heritage Site and leaving devastation in their wake. Among those caught in the deadly attack were Norwegian diplomats, who found themselves in the "epicenter of the strike," according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The powerful explosions shattered the iconic Hotel Bristol, severely damaging the Odesa Philharmonic concert hall and nearby museums. Seven people were injured, and emergency crews remain at the scene. As Ukraine pleads for stronger air defenses, the attack has intensified global outrage over Russia’s continued assaults on civilian infrastructure.
