Overview

• Russia carried out its largest attack in weeks with 574 drones and 40 missiles and destroyed a U.S.-linked industrial complex in Mukachevo, prompting President Trump to say he may impose sanctions, massive tariffs or both within two weeks.
• Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said no Putin–Zelenski meeting is scheduled, while Reuters-sourced reporting outlined hard Kremlin terms that include NATO non-expansion and limits on Ukrainian forces.
• Moscow’s defense ministry claimed additional gains in Donetsk, as Ukrainian forces reported striking infrastructure in Russia’s Bryansk region tied to the Druzhba oil pipeline.
• The United States deployed three destroyers toward Caribbean waters near Venezuela and has mobilized forces in the region, while also offering a $50 million reward for information leading to Nicolás Maduro’s capture and labeling networks linked to his government as narcoterrorist.
• Maduro condemned the U.S. moves as criminal and illegal, ordered the mobilization of 4.5 million militia members, and a weekend enlistment drive drew hundreds of volunteers, according to local reports.
