Putin congratulates Trump and American people on US Independence Day

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has stated on Sunday that fresh intelligence indicates Russia is preparing another large-scale missile and drone attack on Ukraine. 

He described it as typical of Putin — launched right after America’s Independence Day and just before the NATO summit in Ankara (July 7–8).

 Zelensky urged Ukrainians to heed air raid sirens and called on Western partners, especially the US, to speed up delivery of air defense missiles to save lives. 

According to monitoring channels, report Russian already finished preparations for the next attack in next 48 hours

Russian authorities have reiterated last week that there is no going back on the special military operations in Ukraine. The war in Ukraine has been between the US led NATO and the Russia Federation.

The US is providing intelligence to help Ukraine plan and execute drone attacks deep inside Russia, including routes to dodge air defenses.

 At the same time, Russian negotiators are pushing hard for big Ukrainian concessions especially on territory, and US-brokered peace talks are unlikely to restart before late summer or even February 2027. Both sides remain far apart.

vice president JD Vance claims Russia's Offensive Gains "Almost Nothing" as Ukraine's Defense Paves Way for Peace. 

JD Vance stated that Russia's battlefield offensives are achieving very little despite heavy losses, while Ukraine's defensive successes (avoiding costly attacks like in 2023) are weakening Russia and helping create conditions to end the war through diplomacy. He praised the shift to defense + drones as far more effective.

Putin congratulates Trump and American people on US Independence Day

Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump held a new phone call, Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said.

The call was initiated by the American side and lasted 1 hour and 25 minutes.

The Russian president also recalled Russia’s contribution to the formation of American statehood and wished Trump continued success in hosting the FIFA World Cup in the United States.

Russia proposes six-hour ceasefire in Konstantinovka As Iran Rejects Trump's demand of a toll-free Strait of Hormuz

Russia expects Ukraine to respond to the proposal for a pause in fighting by Sunday noon, the Russian Defense Ministry said




Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin was briefed on the full liberation of Konstantinovka - one of the most important logistics and defensive hubs in northern Donbass

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia has no plans to stop its "Special Military Operation" (SVO) in Ukraine.

According to him, fighting will continue until Moscow achieves its goals, including Ukrainian neutrality and recognition of Russian-controlled territories.


Peskov said peace is possible quickly if Ukraine meets Russia's demands, but otherwise military operations proceed.




According to Sputnik, quoting USMC veteran and geopolitical analyst Brian Berletic,  with its superior industrial base and ability to maintain larger numbers of trained soldiers, Russia can maintain pressure on both Ukraine and its NATO backers until either of them cracks.

" Russia has been able to hit highly expensive and difficult-to-replace military hardware transferred to Ukraine, as well as industrial facilities, command centers and dual-use infrastructure"

Moscow attacks are degrading Ukraine “faster than either it itself or its Western sponsors can replenish manpower, equipment, and ammunition”
 Western military production or the scale of Ukrainian drone attacks have so far failed to match those of Russia’s

Vladimir Putin ordered the continuation of strikes against military targets in Ukraine during the meeting with Russia’s Chief of General Staff Gen. Valery Gerasimov


Meanwhile, in the middle east, Iran had rejected American Donald Trump's demand of a toll-free Strait of Hormuz, announcing China will be granted "special considerations" on Iran's planned Strait of Hormuz fees at the World Peace Forum in Beijing, with Iran's ambassador to China Fazli adding "we will definitely have special considerations for China, because China is a friendly country," and Iran will extend similar preferential treatment to other "countries which are friendly to us," per Bloomberg.

Iran will impose "new arrangements concerning the Strait of Hormuz with the collaboration and cooperation of Oman" as the Strait is now a matter of Iran's "national security" following the war, with China buying almost all of Iran's oil exports.


The US and Gulf Arab countries reject Iran's planned fees while European nations now view fees as "inevitable" and some Gulf Arab officials privately hold the same view, pressing Iran only not to "discriminate based on nationality."

On further negotiations, Trump said the U.S. and Iran have agreed to pause negotiations for a week until the events surrounding Ali Khamenei’s funeral conclude, adding that neither side will “shoot at the other” during that period, according to Axios.

Trump also claimed the Iranians “are begging to make a deal” and said, “They are all there. One shot and we can take them all out, but we are not going to do that because then we would have nobody to negotiate with.” He added that he was surprised to see mourners crying at Khamenei’s funeral, saying, “Maybe it’s fake tears.”

Russian Putin calls for continued massive strikes on Ukraine’s military-industrial infrastructure

“Massive group strikes on the infrastructure of Ukraine’s military-industrial complex must be continued,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said while visiting an auxiliary command post of the Joint Group of Forces.

Vladimir Putin stated that Russian forces have fully completed the "liberation" of the Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) and are continuing to destroy Ukrainian Armed Forces units in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), as well as in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions.

According to a report by the Sputnik, Putin confirmed that Russian forces have liberated 133 towns and liberated, along with more than 3,000 square kilometers of territory in the Donbass and Novorossiya since the start of 2026.

Konstantinovka is one of most important logistics and defensive hubs in northern Donbass.


Together with Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, it forms a heavily fortified belt that supports Ukrainian operations across the region.

The American led NATO war against Russia in Ukraine have not been able to crush or for for Moscow to retreat from its special military operations in Ukraine.
