Russia struck a Coca-Cola production facility in the Kyiv region with a drone, the company confirmed.

No employees were injured. Zelensky said the attack should serve as a signal to the US about the reality of Russia’s war against Ukraine.

Zelensky ordered the dismissal of deputy chiefs of Ukraine’s Security Service and military intelligence after a shootout between personnel from the two agencies in Kyiv.

He called the incident “absolutely unacceptable” and said both services must be held accountable.

Ukraine is shortening Kyiv’s curfew and introducing a new two-tier air alert system as Russia changes its attack tactics.

Yellow alerts will signal drone threats and allow businesses and transport to keep operating, while red alerts will warn of ballistic missiles or large-scale attacks and require people to take shelter.

India is calling for peace in Ukraine while deepening economic ties with Moscow.

Russian crude imports have reportedly topped 2.6 million barrels a day, while India is also supplying refined fuel back to Russia — raising questions over how New Delhi’s “strategic autonomy” intersects with Moscow’s war economy.

Russia struck Odesa again early Friday, killing one civilian and injuring at least three.

Residential buildings and cars were damaged in the attack — just a day after another Russian strike on the city injured 17 people, including three children.

Ukrainian drones attacked Russia’s Sochi overnight, setting fire to a Rosneft oil depot and reportedly hitting Russian S-300/S-400 air defenses.

A defense plant in Bashkortostan was also targeted, while 35 drones were reportedly shot down near Moscow, disrupting flights for a third consecutive night.

Russian airports faced a third straight night of disruption as drone alerts forced restrictions, cancellations and diversions across Moscow and other cities.

All four Moscow airports were affected, while Ukraine warned that Russian airspace is becoming increasingly unsafe for civilian aviation.

Russia may have struck two old Yak-40 aircraft at Kyiv’s Zhulyany Airport, according to preliminary information cited by Ukrainian parliamentarian Oleksii Honcharenko.

The Soviet-era passenger planes had reportedly been out of service since before the full-scale war.

Honcharenko also said US representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner were expected in Kyiv on Sunday.

There has been NO official confirmation of the reported strike so far. Follow updates on our website.

Ukraine is preparing a new two-level air raid alert system as relentless Russian drone attacks increasingly disrupt daily life.

Yellow alerts will signal drone threats, while red alerts will warn of missile, ballistic or large-scale attacks. Kyiv is also being urged to keep the metro running during lower-level alerts and shorten curfew hours.

Trump’s representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are expected to visit Moscow on Sept. 5 and then travel to Kyiv on Sept. 6, Russian state media claimed.

While Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi publicly urges Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine, New Delhi is silently deepening its strategic and economic ties with Moscow.

In this video, we break down the changing equation of India-Russia relations: from record-breaking Russian crude oil imports (exceeding 2.6 million barrels per day) to India supplying refined gasoline back to Russia, trade imbalances, and alternative transport corridors like the INSTC and Chennai-Vladivostok route.

Is India pursuing "strategic autonomy," or is it enabling Russia’s war economy under the guise of peace diplomacy?

Ukrainian drones launched a large-scale overnight attack on Sochi and the nearby Sirius district, reportedly hitting an oil depot and an air-defense unit.

A fire broke out at the Adler oil depot, while Ukrainian monitoring channels said the facility belongs to Rosneft. In Sirius, open-source analysts reported that drones may have struck an S-300 or S-400 air-defense position.

Russian authorities said several residential buildings were also damaged but reported no casualties.

The targets are located just dozens of kilometers from Vladimir Putin’s Bocharov Ruchey residence, whose air defenses have been reinforced amid repeated Ukrainian drone attacks.

German authorities registered more than 165 suspected sabotage cases nationwide through the end of August, according to a confidential police assessment.

A fire broke out at a non-residential site in one of Kyiv’s districts during a Russian drone attack, but authorities did not identify the facility affected.

Unverified reports pointed to either a Nova Poshta hub or an aircraft at Zhulyany Airport, while MP Oleksii Honcharenko linked the latter claim to tentative travel plans for US envoys.

A new poll shows 52% of Germans support maintaining or increasing arms deliveries to Ukraine, while 42% say Berlin has gone too far.

At the same time, 56% see Russia as a major threat to Germany’s security.

Trump’s envoys Kushner and Witkoff are reportedly set to visit Moscow before Kyiv to promote trilateral talks between Ukraine, Russia and the US, on Sept. 5-6.

A Russian drone reportedly struck two Soviet-era planes at Zhulyany Airport, but claims about the envoys’ planned flight remain unconfirmed.
