A Sunday afternoon hike through the clouds turned into an absolute nightmare in Russia’s North Caucasus when a colossal avalanche roared down Mount Mizhirgi, killing at least 11 climbers and leaving six others missing.
The deadly mountain wall of ice, snow, and crushing debris slammed into a group of 33 mountaineers at around 5:00 p.m. local time, tearing through the notoriously treacherous Bezengi Gorge. Shocking footage captured the exact moment a hanging glacier appeared to give way, sending thousands of tons of frozen rubble cascading down the 16,400-foot titan along the Russian-Georgian border.

🚨 11 KILLED IN RUSSIA AVALANCHE
At least 11 climbers were killed and six injured after an avalanche from Mount Mizhirgi struck a group of 33 climbers in the Bezengi Gorge of Russia’s Kabardino-Balkaria region on Sunday.

Stunned tourists filmed the terrifying wall coming down, <a href="https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-16111027/At-11-climbers-swept-away-death-avalanche-video-shows-wall-snow-ice-crashing-mountain-Russia.html">exclaiming</a>, &#8220;You only ever see something like this in the movies,&#8221; before fleeing as the sheer scale of the horror became clear.
By Monday morning, 10 survivors had scrambled down under their own power, while six wounded victims were airlifted to nearby hospitals. More than 50 elite high-altitude rescuers, backed by Mi-8 helicopters, are frantically probing the snow for the remaining six missing souls. However, officials warn that brutal terrain and the looming threat of secondary slides are severely crippling the operation.
The tragedy in Kabardino-Balkaria is just the latest in a string of recent high-altitude disasters. Months earlier, in January, a massive snow slide on nearby Mount Elbrus, the highest peak in Europe, sent terrified skiers scrambling for their lives as a giant white cloud swallowed an entire parking lot — though no injuries were reported in that incident.
Over recent decades, there has been a brutal streak of deadly mountain catastrophes worldwide. The 1996 &#8220;Into Thin Air&#8221; storm claimed eight lives high in the Death Zone due to overcrowding and missed turnaround deadlines. Years later, structural ice collapses in the Khumbu Icefall (2014) and earthquake-triggered slides at Base Camp (2015) claimed dozens more.
Recent years have seen catastrophic avalanches wipe out training missions and entire expeditions, including India’s Draupadi Ka Danda disaster in 2022 (27 dead), Pakistan&#8217;s Broad Peak slide (10 dead), and a backcountry slide in Lake Tahoe that killed nine skiers.
Mountaineering experts point to a lethal mix of recurring factors for the tragedies: Structural ice failures, where hanging glaciers or massive ice blocks (seracs) collapse, can trigger catastrophic slides without any warning. Extreme weather shifts can weaken ice, while sudden, violent storms can trap climbers in near-zero visibility and sub-zero wind chills.
Overcrowded routes can create deadly human traffic jams. When climbers ignore strict turnaround cutoffs to chase summits, a simple weather shift can result in death.

During a recent visit to Ukraine, I had the privilege of addressing the National Prayer Breakfast and events commemorating the 35th anniversary of Ukraine’s independence from the former Soviet Union, and I was deeply moved by the faith and resolve of their people.
Traveling by plane and a dead-of-night train ride from Poland, one might have expected to find a nation weary after more than four years of Putin’s brutal and bloody war and the daily pummeling of their capital city by the Russian war machine in the days before we arrived.
Instead, on my third visit since the outset of the war in 2022, I found a Ukrainian people hardened and even more determined to win a victory for freedom no matter the odds.
While some Americans have grown callous to grim headlines describing an unmoving and grinding stalemate, President Zelensky and the Ukrainian people have only become more resolved. With many of the loudest and least informed voices in our country on the Left and the Right arguing that Ukraine’s cause is hopeless or that the time has come to negotiate away its future, nothing I saw in Kyiv last week supports that conclusion.
By every measure that truly matters, Ukraine is winning this war. Ukraine remains free. Its government stands. Its soldiers have taken the fight directly into the heart of Russia with unprecedented drone warfare. Its people are unbowed and refuse to surrender. And the blue and yellow flag still flies defiantly over Kyiv.
The Ukrainian people are not asking the free world to fight their war. They are fighting it themselves, through extraordinary courage and sacrifice. They only ask of the free world: that America and our allies continue providing the support they need to repel Putin’s unprovoked invasion and return his aspirations for a new Russian empire to the ash heap of history.
Thirty-five years ago, the Soviet Union collapsed beneath the weight of Communism and its own corruption. The Iron Curtain fell, and captive nations like Ukraine reclaimed their freedom and embraced the Free World, unshackled from the chains of Communism.
Today, Vladimir Putin is trying to reverse history&#8217;s verdict. His invasion is not merely another territorial dispute between neighboring states. It is an attempt to resurrect an empire that deserved to die. Like the Soviet despots before him, Putin believes he can erase a distinct nation, language, culture, and people through fear and violence.
He cannot.
Vladimir Putin set out to conquer Ukraine in days, topple its democratically elected government, install a puppet regime, extinguish Ukrainian independence, and break the proud Ukrainian people. More than four years later, he has accomplished none of those objectives.
Russia has paid an enormous price in blood, treasure, and international isolation simply to gain small pieces of territory it cannot hold without constant reinforcement. That is not what victory looks like.
Unable to break Ukraine’s determination on the battlefield, the Kremlin has increasingly turned to terror from the skies, targeting innocent children and civilians. In recent days, Russia has unleashed wave after desperate wave of long-range drones and missiles against Kyiv and other civilian population centers. More than 1,500 attack drones were launched over just four days, as the Kremlin struggles in vain to break the spirit of the Ukrainian people.
The price of stopping dictators always rises when free nations hesitate. Putin will either be stopped in Ukraine or further west. The choice is ours, not his.
Ronald Reagan understood this when he warned, “No Western nation, including the United States, can hope to win its own battle for freedom and survival by sacrificing brave comrades to the politics of international expediency.”
For America and her allies, supporting Ukraine is not an act of charity. Giving Ukraine the means to defeat and repel the Russian war machine serves the vital national interests of the United States of America.
Every dollar invested in helping Ukrainians defeat Russian aggression today reduces the likelihood that American servicemen and women will one day have to confront that aggression themselves under our NATO commitments. This investment also rebuilds our own industrial base, providing jobs and ensuring our own security as the world becomes an increasingly dangerous place.
And more must be done right now.
Congress should act without delay to pass the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia Act. Every additional sanction further isolates the Kremlin, weakens Putin’s ability to finance his war machine, and brings Ukraine one step closer to justice, peace, and victory.
Congress must also ensure that Ukraine continues to receive the military resources it needs to defend its people, protect its skies, and finish this fight.
Thirty-five years ago, Ukrainians reclaimed their freedom from one empire. Today they are ensuring that the dead empire is never resurrected.
Every generation will be tasked to defend freedom. This generation of Ukrainians has done so with extraordinary courage. They deserve more than our admiration. With the steadfast support of every free nation on earth and the arsenal of democracy, Ukraine can win a victory for freedom, for their people, and for freedom-loving people around the world.

Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly fears that ending the war in Ukraine without securing a victory could cost him his life, with Kremlin insiders claiming he has warned that he could be “hanged” if Russia fails to achieve its objectives.
The explosive claim was reported by the <a href="https://www.economist.com/europe/2026/08/30/cornered-vladimir-putin-plans-to-escalate-his-war">Economist</a>, which cited sources close to the Kremlin as saying Putin believes he cannot safely end the nearly five-year war without at least capturing all of Ukraine’s Donbas region. “They will hang me,” Putin reportedly told people close to him at some point during the war, according to one insider cited by the outlet. 
The reported fear could help explain why Putin appears increasingly committed to escalating the conflict rather than pursuing an end to the fighting. According to the Economist, Putin is preparing to send as many as 400,000 additional Russians to the battlefield. Russia’s September 2022 mobilization decree remains in effect, meaning Moscow can reportedly recruit additional troops without formally announcing another mass call-up. Regional authorities could be tasked with meeting recruitment quotas, allowing the Kremlin to spread the manpower costs across individual regions.
The reported escalation comes as Russia continues a <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/31/world/europe/ukraine-kyiv-drones-russia-sirens.html">massive aerial campaign against Ukraine</a>. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia launched nearly 1,500 drones over a four-day period, more than half of them jet-powered, as repeated strikes disrupted life in Kyiv.
Russian forces have also increasingly targeted Ukraine’s logistics and commercial infrastructure. Ukraine’s agriculture minister said roughly 90% of the food logistics infrastructure operated by major retail chains has been destroyed, but added that alternative delivery methods would prevent Ukrainians from being left without food.
Ukraine has meanwhile expanded its own long-range drone campaign against Russian oil, energy and logistics infrastructure.
The war is also reportedly becoming increasingly unpopular among parts of Russia’s elite. One insider told the Economist that the conflict has continued largely on “inertia,” imposing growing economic and political costs on Russia. Another argued that nearly five years of war increasingly makes the conflict appear to be a failure regardless of its eventual outcome.
Despite those concerns, Putin’s grip on power remains secure, according to the report. The danger may instead be what happens if he attempts to end the war without being able to claim a meaningful victory.
Putin has continued to publicly reject the idea that Russia is preparing to wind down its campaign. During an Aug. 22 address, he <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/putin-says-ukraine-opened-pandoras-box-with-strikes-economic-targets-2026-08-22/">accused</a> Ukraine of opening a “Pandora’s box” and threatened retaliation against what he called the country’s “most sensitive sectors.”
“The special military operation continues,” Putin told members of Russia’s ruling United Russia party. “We will move only forward.” The Kremlin has also increasingly <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/aug/27/britain-ukraine-war-russia">threatened</a> Ukraine’s Western supporters, including Britain, as Western governments expand military assistance to Kyiv.
The result is a war in which Putin may face pressure from multiple directions: growing costs at home, frustration among portions of the Russian elite and continued battlefield resistance from Ukraine. An exit without a clear victory could carry political consequences he reportedly fears could be even more severe.

Putin Reportedly Fears That He’ll Be Hanged If He Loses Ukraine War

Andrei Klepach, who was one of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s top macroeconomists, was fired after saying Russia was &#8220;falling behind&#8221; in the war with Ukraine. 
Two sources familiar with the matter <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/russian-state-bank-fires-economist-who-warned-moscow-was-losing-war-attrition-2026-08-17/">told</a> Reuters that the economist was fired over remarks he made in May that resurfaced in Russian media last week.

Speaking at a gathering at the Nikitsky Club of economists, academics, and government officials, Klepach said, &#8220;We are falling behind.” He added, “We are losing both the technological ​and economic competition in the world. And we are losing it not only to China and the United States. In some ways, we are losing it to Ukraine too.” 
Klepach attributed Ukraine&#8217;s resilience in part to financial support from the West. 
&#8220;We will not win the competition in this war of attrition,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We have the illusion that everything there will collapse. It has not collapsed ‌and will not collapse. Our costs are mounting.” 
Klepach worked for Russia&#8217;s National Economic Development Institution, VEB, for 12 years. Before that, he worked at Russia’s Ministry of Economic Development for ten years. Klepach confirmed his dismissal to Reuters. 
Klepach’s economic diagnosis contrasts sharply with Putin&#8217;s assessment of the Russian economy. In June, Putin said efforts to cool the Russian economy were deliberate. Putin was directly asked whether Russia&#8217;s economy was struggling because of the war and said such claims were exaggerated.
&#8220;We&#8217;ve deliberately taken steps to cool the economy,&#8221; Putin said of Russia&#8217;s Central Bank putting the country&#8217;s key interest rate at 14.5%, which he called &#8220;a difficult decision.&#8221;
&#8220;You can say we&#8217;ve cooled off, or you can say we haven&#8217;t done everything yet, but these are deliberate steps. We don&#8217;t want inflation — hyperinflation — to reach 60-80%, as it is in some countries,&#8221; he <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/putin-says-russia-will-bolster-its-air-defenses-against-ukraines-long-range-drone-strikes">said</a>. &#8220;We&#8217;re fighting for the health of the Russian economy as a whole.&#8221;
The United States is ramping up restrictions with the Senate <a href="https://www.foreign.senate.gov/press/dem/release/what-they-are-saying-sanctioning-russia-and-iran-act-draws-widespread-support-from-prominent-american-officials-and-ukrainian-leaders">passing</a> the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act on August 7. The Senate passed it 86 votes to 11, but it still has to pass the House. If the bill passes the House, President Donald J. Trump has indicated he would sign the legislation, which allows targeted tariffs of up to 100% on the five largest importers of Russian crude oil or gas.
Charles Lichfield, director of economic foresight and analysis at the Atlantic Council’s GeoEconomics Center, said cracks are showing in the Russian economy through inflation and the Russian government’s large deficit. “They are on course to double the deficit they had in 2025 and that was already double what they had in 2024,” Lichfield said. “On inflation, they managed to bring it down to basically the target of 4% late last year, which was a big achievement given all the internal and external inflationary pressures, but it looks like that will not last.”
Russia’s economy has also faced pressure from declining energy revenues, Western sanctions, and Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy infrastructure and vessels associated with Moscow&#8217;s shadow fleet.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that Russia has freed American citizen and former U.S. Marine Robert Gilman after more than four years in custody, saying Moscow released him on humanitarian grounds without receiving another prisoner in exchange.
&#8220;I am proud to announce that American Citizen Robert Gilman, a former United States Marine, is coming HOME!&#8221; Trump shared on Tuesday. &#8220;In a well known Media story, Robert was imprisoned in Russia in 2022, during the Biden Administration. After my discussions with President Vladimir Putin, Russia has agreed to release him, very much on a Humanitarian Basis.&#8221;
&#8220;We appreciate this decision, and the fact that Russia asked for no one in return — No exchange took place,&#8221; Trump added.
Gilman, 32, was detained in Russia in January 2022 and later convicted of assaulting a Russian police officer. Russian authorities claimed that Gilman, who had been traveling by train, was intoxicated and kicked an officer after being taken into custody.
His supporters have disputed Russia&#8217;s account, saying Gilman was severely ill at the time and was struck with a baton by police before being arrested, reportedly vomiting and collapsing. Gilman was traveling through Russia in November 2021 en route to a new teaching job in Moldova. He had previously taught English and established a teaching business in Poland. Illness and problems with a tampered passport prolonged his trip in the country.
A Russian court sentenced Gilman to 3 1/2 years in a penal colony in 2022. Russian courts subsequently convicted him of additional assaults involving prison officials and an investigator while he was incarcerated, increasing his total sentence to 10 years.

Gilman and his advocates say he was repeatedly drugged, tortured, and forced into compulsory exercise during his imprisonment, The Daily Wire&#8217;s Kassy Akiva previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/former-u-s-marine-imprisoned-in-russia-on-the-brink-of-death-as-family-begs-for-release?author=Kassy+Akiva&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=0&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=American+Near+Death+In+Russian+Prison+As+Family+Makes+Urgent+Plea">reported</a>. He also spent six months in an extreme punishment cell.
Concerns about Gilman&#8217;s condition intensified in recent weeks as advocates warned that he could die without urgent medical treatment. They said he had developed severe pneumonia, was unable to communicate, and was being fed through a tube as he lay with his eyes shut in the psychiatric ward of a civilian hospital in Russia.
“I am very worried that, if urgent action is not taken to release Robert so he can receive urgent medical care in the United States, his condition could become permanent, or he could die in Russian custody,” Sen. Edward Markey (D-MA) said earlier this month. Markey warned that Gilman&#8217;s death could cause “a situation that will further complicate an already difficult relationship” between the United States and Russia.

Trump said Gilman was traveling back to the United States with representatives of his administration and had already been reunited with his mother, who was accompanying him home. Gilman is expected to arrive in the United States Tuesday evening.
&#8220;I just spoke to him, and he had one request — A GREAT cheeseburger when he lands,&#8221; the president said. &#8220;I will take care of that!&#8221;
&#8220;During my Administration, we have prioritized bringing home Americans Detained Abroad, and have done so at a level never seen before, returning hundreds of people to their families,&#8221; Trump noted. &#8220;We have also freed many non Americans who were under capture in different countries throughout the World.&#8221;
Secretary of State Marco Rubio also posted about Gilman&#8217;s release, saying he joins &#8220;over 100 Americans whom President Trump has freed during his second term in office.&#8221;
&#8220;We thank Russia for working with Special Envoy Steve Witkoff to release Mr. Gilman and allowing him to receive the necessary medical treatment here in the United States,&#8221; Rubio said. &#8220;While we appreciate this positive step, we are still seeking the immediate return of all other unjustly detained Americans, including wrongful detainee Stephen Hubbard. The President will not stop until all unjustly detained Americans are home.&#8221;

Trump Rescues Tortured American Citizen Imprisoned By Russia Under Biden Administration

robert gilman

A former U.S. Marine imprisoned in Russia for more than 1,662 days may be near death after slipping into a catatonic-like state, prompting urgent calls from his family for the Trump administration to secure his release before it is too late.
Robert Gilman, a 32-year-old Massachusetts resident imprisoned in Russia since 2022, was diagnosed roughly seven weeks ago with a dissociative stupor, a condition in which a person becomes largely unresponsive and unable to eat or communicate. He has since developed severe pneumonia, according to Sen. <a href="https://www.markey.senate.gov/news/press-releases/senator-markey-statement-on-the-worsening-medical-condition-of-robert-gilman">Edward Markey</a> (D-MA) and advocates working on his behalf.
“I am very worried that, if urgent action is not taken to release Robert so he can receive urgent medical care in the United States, his condition could become permanent, or he could die in Russian custody,” Markey said, adding that his death could result “in a situation that will further complicate an already difficult relationship” between the United States and Russia.
Gilman is being fed through a tube after being transferred from a prison hospital to the psychiatric ward of a <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/jailed-ex-us-marine-may-be-near-death-russia-sister-advocacy-groups-say-2026-08-06/">civilian hospital</a> in Voronezh, Russia, Reuters reported. He is reportedly unable to communicate, keeps his eyes shut, and has been unable to attend court hearings because of his condition.
The White House and State Department have urged Moscow to release Gilman so he can receive urgent medical treatment in the United States, Reuters reported. Secretary of State Marco Rubio also raised Gilman&#8217;s case with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov during a meeting in Manila on July 23.
Gilman is one of roughly ten Americans known to be imprisoned in Russia. Unlike several Americans freed in recent prisoner exchanges, Gilman has not been designated by the State Department as &#8220;wrongfully detained,&#8221; a status that provides additional diplomatic resources and allows the U.S. government to provide financial support for Gilman’s medical care and other needs.
The State Department has not publicly explained why Gilman has not received the designation.
Gilman served in the Marine Corps before becoming an English teacher. He was traveling to a new job in Moldova in November 2021 after establishing a teaching business in Poland. According to FreeRobertGilman.com, he became ill while transiting through Moscow and remained in Russia to recover. During that time, he discovered his luggage and passport had allegedly been tampered with, requiring him to replace missing passport pages before continuing his trip. While waiting, he visited extended family outside Moscow.
The advocacy group says that on Jan. 17, 2022, while returning to Moscow to have his passport repaired at the U.S. Embassy, Gilman became violently ill again. Rather than receiving medical assistance, the group alleges Russian police struck him with a baton and took him into custody.
The group says Gilman was vomiting and repeatedly collapsing, possibly due to a concussion, when officers attempted to restrain him, and that he accidentally struck an officer&#8217;s shin.
Despite the officer later reportedly saying Gilman should not be charged, prosecutors pursued a series of charges against him.
According to the advocacy group, Gilman was subjected to forced drugging, torture, compulsory exercise for up to 16 hours, and six months in an extreme punishment cell, which it says led to additional charges and an extended sentence after being found guilty of allegedly assaulting prison staff.
According to Russian media, his sentence <a href="https://apnews.com/article/russia-us-gilman-sentence-american-detained-1398c5f86100f6f9be7e493b099262ca">was extended</a> to 10 years.
Gilman&#8217;s deteriorating condition has drawn comparisons to other Americans previously detained in Russia, including teacher Marc Fogel, who returned to the United States earlier this year after the Trump administration negotiated his release.
At the time, Rubio said Fogel&#8217;s return was &#8220;a reminder that other American citizens are still detained in Russia&#8221; and pledged that the administration remained committed to bringing them home.
Before his release, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/my-soul-is-dead-american-teacher-speaks-from-russian-prison-after-exclusion-from-prisoner-swap">The Daily Wire reported</a> that Fogel had fallen into a depression after being excluded from a major U.S.-Russia prisoner exchange under the Biden administration.
In a recorded phone call obtained by The Daily Wire, Fogel told his family he felt &#8220;like a second-class citizen&#8221; after watching other high-profile Americans—including WNBA star Brittney Griner and Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich—return home while he remained imprisoned.
Gilman&#8217;s family now fears he could suffer an even graver fate if a similar diplomatic breakthrough does not come soon.
Reuters reported that Gilman&#8217;s mother has been barred from visiting him in the hospital despite obtaining a Russian court order permitting the visit. Neither U.S. consular officials nor Gilman&#8217;s Russian attorney have been allowed to see him.
&#8220;I ​am more afraid for my brother than I have been since this horrible nightmare started,&#8221; Lexie Hudson, Gilman’s sister, said in a statement. “I&#8217;m worried that I ⁠may never see him again if the Russians don&#8217;t release him. I&#8217;m worried that he could die.&#8221;

A Russian cruise missile struck eastern Poland early Thursday after violating the country&#8217;s airspace during a massive Russian missile barrage against Ukraine, according to Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
The Russian-made Kh-101 cruise missile crashed into an undeveloped field near the village of Tarnawa-Kolonia, about 57 miles from the Ukrainian border, leaving a crater approximately 33 feet wide, the <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwymkgenv2ro">BBC </a><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwymkgenv2ro">reported</a>. No casualties were reported.
&#8220;Last night, during the massive missile attack on Ukraine, one of the cruise missiles Kh-101 violated the Polish airspace and fell 50 km away from the town of Lublin,&#8221; Tusk <a href="https://x.com/donaldtusk/status/2082826810052558935">said</a>. &#8220;The missile was armed. In all probability it was Russian. I would like to thank all EU and NATO leaders for their solidarity and readiness to help.&#8221;
The Kh-101 is a long-range air-launched cruise missile that is exclusively in Russia&#8217;s inventory and has been used extensively throughout Moscow&#8217;s war against Ukraine. According to the <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/d2ed0281-205f-4021-bd4d-45931f9c9f7a">Financial Times</a>, citing an analysis by Ukraine&#8217;s Office of the President, Russia increased production of the Kh-101 nearly eightfold — from about 56 missiles annually before the full-scale invasion to roughly 420 missiles in 2023. 
The incident occurred during one of Russia&#8217;s largest overnight attacks on Ukraine, with missiles and drones targeting Kyiv, Lviv, and other cities across the country. According to the BBC, at least eight people in Ukraine were killed and dozens more wounded, including six members of one family in a village near Kryvyi Rih. Lviv, located near Ukraine&#8217;s border with Poland, was also among the cities struck.
The incident came just hours after Tusk met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Lublin, where the Ukrainian leader stopped on his way back from talks with President Donald Trump. 
Poland, which borders Ukraine, is a NATO member, meaning an attack on its territory has broader implications for the alliance&#8217;s collective security. Although Polish officials have not suggested the missile was intentionally aimed at Poland, any Russian military object entering NATO airspace raises the risk of escalation.
Since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, several Russian drones and at least one unarmed Russian missile have landed in Poland, but Thursday&#8217;s incident involved what Tusk identified as an armed Kh-101 cruise missile.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said he spoke with Tusk following the incident, writing on X that Poland and the alliance activated their air and ground defenses after the missile violated Polish airspace. 
&#8220;This incident is yet another reckless act by Russia and a dangerous consequence of its war against Ukraine,” <a href="https://x.com/SecGenNATO/status/2082826796651733182">Rutte wrote</a>. “I condemn last night’s deadly strikes across Ukraine. NATO continues to provide essential support so Ukraine can defend itself. Our commitment is unwavering.”
Poland&#8217;s military said it had been tracking Russia&#8217;s overnight assault on Ukraine for hours before the impact. 
National and allied surveillance systems detected heavy activity from Russia&#8217;s long-range aviation, prompting the country to raise the readiness of its air defense systems and scramble fighter jets along with an airborne early warning aircraft, according to the <a href="https://x.com/DowOperSZ/status/2082694512682389553">Operational Command of the Polish Armed Forces</a> in a statement.
At least a dozen missiles over western Ukraine that could have posed a threat to Polish airspace were tracked on radar, including one missile that came within roughly three miles of the border before turning back east, the statement said.
Then, at 3:40 a.m. local time, Polish radar detected another object traveling westward inside the country&#8217;s airspace. An F-16 was dispatched to identify and intercept it, but the object disappeared from radar before the fighter could make visual contact. A military helicopter later located the apparent impact site near Tarnawa-Kolonia, where search and recovery teams were sent to secure the area, the statement went on.
Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz described it as &#8220;an extremely tough night&#8221; for the country&#8217;s air defense, surveillance, and threat detection systems, thanking military personnel for monitoring and responding to the overnight barrage. 
He said authorities were continuing to investigate the object that fell.

The Senate overwhelmingly approved a bipartisan sanctions package targeting Russia and Iran on Tuesday, passing the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 by an 86-12 vote just hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met with lawmakers on Capitol Hill and attended the funeral of the bill&#8217;s namesake.
The legislation, named in honor of the late South Carolina GOP senator, represents one of the final initiatives Graham worked to secure before his unexpected death earlier this month. Graham had spent the days leading up to his passing negotiating the measure with the White House after returning from a trip to Ukraine.
The vote came after Zelensky personally lobbied senators during a closed-door meeting on Capitol Hill before final passage. Zelensky traveled to Washington both to attend Graham&#8217;s funeral and to press lawmakers to approve the sanctions package aimed at increasing pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Following the meeting, Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), one of the bill&#8217;s lead sponsors, <a href="https://www.c-span.org/program/news-conference/sens-blumenthal-britt-shaheen-wicker-risch-after-meeting-with-ukrainian-pres-zelensky/683470">said to reporters</a>, “This bill is the one that will pass. This bill is the one that the President will sign. We want a law, not just a bill.&#8221; Blumenthal added that “it sends a message to Putin: your days of war are numbered. You are on the losing side.&#8221;
The legislation would impose sweeping new sanctions on Russian political officials, oligarchs, financial institutions and the so-called Russian &#8220;shadow fleet&#8221; used to evade existing sanctions. It also authorizes secondary sanctions and tariff authority targeting countries that continue purchasing large quantities of Russian oil and gas, one of the Kremlin&#8217;s primary sources of wartime revenue.
In addition to Russia, the bill extends sanctions targeting Iran&#8217;s energy and weapons sectors through 2031, preserving restrictions that were otherwise set to expire this year. Senators agreed to combine the Russia and Iran sanctions into a single package after weeks of negotiations. 
Supporters described the measure as a fitting tribute to Graham, who was among the Senate&#8217;s most outspoken advocates for Ukraine throughout Russia&#8217;s invasion. &#8220;There is no greater way to honor Senator Graham&#8217;s legacy than to move forward with this bipartisan agreement,&#8221; the bill&#8217;s bipartisan sponsors said in a <a href="https://www.blumenthal.senate.gov/newsroom/press/release/bipartisan-group-of-senators-announce-agreement-to-move-forward-on-major-sanctions-legislation">joint statement</a> before Tuesday&#8217;s vote.
The measure drew opposition from a much smaller group of bipartisan senators.
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who frequently opposes sanctions legislation on libertarian grounds, joined 11 Democrats voting against the bill. Democratic opponents cited concerns over the legislation&#8217;s tariff provisions rather than the sanctions themselves. &#8220;I support Zelensky,&#8221; Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) <a href="https://x.com/AndrewDesiderio/status/2082249948972617951">said</a> after voting no. &#8220;We&#8217;re all on board on the sanctions &#8230; But why do we need the tariff power in there right now?&#8221; 
Despite those objections, the legislation secured well above the 60 votes needed to pass, underscoring broad bipartisan support for increasing economic pressure on Russia as the war in Ukraine continues.
The House is not expected to consider the legislation until lawmakers return from the August recess. If approved there, the bill will head to President Donald Trump&#8217;s desk for his signature.

Ukrainian drones have recently struck vessels and other assets used in military cargo shipments between Iran and Russia across the Caspian Sea. The attacks expand Kyiv’s long-range drone campaign into waters more than 430 miles from Ukraine’s nearest border.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed responsibility for the attacks on Saturday. “We also achieved very strong results with long‑range strikes in the Caspian Sea — including vessels used in military cargo shipments involving Iran, as well as a warship,” he wrote.
The Security Service of Ukraine said the strikes hit a Russian oil field, a Russian missile boat, and ships used to transport Iranian drones to Russia. The operation forms part of a wider campaign that has also reached oil refineries far inside Russia and contributed to an energy crisis in a country that remains one of the world’s largest petroleum producers.
Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, blamed Zelensky on Sunday for a strike he said killed a sailor on an Iranian commercial vessel. Araghchi said that he contacted Russian and European Union leaders and stated that Kyiv’s actions could not go unanswered, and Iran summoned the Ukrainian chargé d’affaires in Tehran.
Analysts noted the strikes also allow Ukraine to signal alignment with the Trump administration on Iran. Hanna Notte of the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies said the attacks more closely link the European and Middle Eastern theaters.
&#8220;The more that Zelensky can signal to Trump that he’s on Trump’s side against Iran, the better,&#8221; she said.
The Caspian Sea attacks come as Zelensky arrives in Washington for talks with President Donald Trump. Zelensky is expected to press for firmer U.S. commitments on air defenses, including a license that would allow Ukraine to produce Patriot interceptor missiles. Russia has stepped up ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv in recent weeks, Zelensky has said interceptors are urgently needed, and a Raytheon delegation visited Kyiv last week. 
After the meeting with Zelensky, Trump is scheduled to see Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Both leaders are in Washington for the funeral of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).
The timing has highlighted the growing overlap between the two conflicts. Kyiv has called Iran a “direct accomplice to Russian aggression against Ukraine.” Zelensky said his country has evidence that Russia shared satellite imagery with Tehran to help it attack U.S. military facilities and Gulf states. Trump said he would ask Putin about the claim and that it had no impact even if true.
Iran has supplied Russia with Shahed one-way attack drones since the fall of 2022. Russia later began producing its own version of the drones, the Geran, at a factory 600 miles east of Moscow. Ukrainian forces targeted that plant as recently as last year. The Caspian Sea has served as a key route for the shipment of these drones, along with other military shipments. Russia has used shipping companies to move equipment from Iran to the Russian mainland, with some vessels continuing via rivers and canals to the Black Sea.
The sea gives Iran its most direct path to Russia and Central Asia. Nicole Grajewski, an assistant professor at Sciences Po who has written on the Russia-Iran partnership, described the route as “somewhat unfettered by any kind of interdiction by the United States or other partners.”
Trump paused U.S. strikes on Iran over the weekend while considering further action aimed at loosening Tehran’s control of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran’s southern ports remain more important economically, but the Caspian Sea offers a way around the blockade of its Persian Gulf and northern Arabian Sea facilities.
Israel targeted a naval outpost on Iran’s Caspian coast in March. Continued Ukrainian strikes there could pressure an economic link for both countries under sanctions. Hamidreza Azizi, a visiting fellow at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs, said Iran sees the attacks “in the context of this bigger picture of being under blockades from both the south and the north.”
Since the U.S. and Israeli campaign against Iran began in February, Tehran has used Shahed drones against commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz, civilian airports and seaports, Gulf oil infrastructure, and American bases in the region.
The Ukrainian moves follow earlier U.S. efforts to isolate Iran’s key southern port. In mid-July, American forces struck bridges, railways, and other transport links around Bandar Abbas, the strategic city on the Strait of Hormuz that hosts Iran’s naval headquarters. Those <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/u-s-pounds-bridges-and-roads-to-cut-off-irans-strategic-port-city">strikes</a> were intended to cut the city off from the rest of the country while targeting maritime surveillance assets used by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
In Moscow, the mayor reported that more than 390 Ukrainian drones targeted the capital region overnight into Tuesday, with most intercepted. Damage was confirmed to a high-rise south of the city and a warehouse to the west. No casualties were reported.

Ukraine-Russia War

President Donald Trump may be looking at potential strikes on another growing Islamic terrorist hotbed in the coming weeks — this time in the West African nation of Mali.
The Trump administration has reportedly been considering strikes against Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM), an Al Qaeda-linked militant group operating in the Sahel region that has attacked both local militias and international forces and has endeavored to enforce strict Islamic law throughout its areas of control.
The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2026/07/22/trump-administration-weighs-military-options-mali-officials-say/">reported</a> on Wednesday that the Trump administration is divided on military action — and said that one of those in favor of such is the current National Security Council’s senior director for counterterrorism, Sebastian Gorka.
One official did tell the outlet that, despite that division, the United States had been encouraging other nations in the region &#8220;to purchase U.S. equipment and services to support their war efforts against the terrorists.&#8221;
The entire region has been in a state of upheaval in recent years as a series of Russia-backed coups upended democratically elected governments in Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger — and the three nations have increasingly rejected ties with Western nations, instead joining together as The Alliance of Sahel States.
As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/they-kicked-america-out-now-theyre-being-hunted-by-jihadists">previously reported</a>, Niger overtly rejected the United States when President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration delivered an ultimatum just as the West African nation was inking a deal to provide Iran with Uranium. The Biden administration demanded that Niger cut ties with Russia and Iran, but the military junta running things at the time was disinclined to acquiesce. Instead, in addition to refusing Biden&#8217;s ultimatum, Niger ousted all remaining American military assets from the country — including a drone base that was used to target terrorists in the region.
Zineb Riboua, a research fellow at the Hudson Institute’s Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East, told The Daily Wire that the Biden administration&#8217;s presentation may have been the crux of the problem: &#8220;Instead of presenting it as an ultimatum, they could have presented an alternative. Instead of doing a uranium deal with Iran, why don’t you do one with the United States, and you get a school program or something in Niger, something they don’t have.&#8221;
But once the United States was gone, it was soon quickly apparent that the Russian security forces with whom they&#8217;d cast their lots were more of a liability than an asset. As previously reported, &#8220;The Russians were killing untold numbers of civilians and still somehow managing to cede ground to the jihadists. In fact, in Burkina Faso and Mali, the Russians and government forces actually killed more civilians last year than the jihadists.&#8221;
The situation has only deteriorated in the years since, leading to the current consideration of possible military action.
&#8220;We urge regional partners and NATO allies to support the Alliance of Sahel States in their war against JNIM and ISIS,&#8221; the Trump administration official told The Washington Post, noting that partnership with Russia had clearly only allowed the terrorist factions to fester and grow. &#8220;We hope that other African nations take note of Russia’s terrible performance in combating terrorism.&#8221;
When asked, Secretary of State Marco Rubio did not say whether he supported military action. Instead, the State Department said that the United States &#8220;unequivocally condemns the terrorist activity in Mali.&#8221;

Reuters reported Wednesday that U.S. intelligence analysts are looking into whether Russia helped Iran strike CIA facilities in the Gulf by providing targeting intelligence or advanced drone technology.
The report, which cited four people familiar with the matter, said analysts have not reached definitive conclusions. But the precision of the strikes and Russia&#8217;s longstanding military support for Iran are among the factors under review. 
The investigation into Moscow&#8217;s possible role in the attacks on CIA sites has not previously been reported.
<a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-strikes-cia-facilities-prompt-questions-about-possible-russian-role-2026-07-22/?utm_source=braze&amp;utm_medium=notifications&amp;utm_campaign=2025_engagement">Reuters</a> has previously reported that Russia provided Iran with targeting assistance and other military support for attacks on U.S. interests in the Gulf. 
At least two CIA facilities were hit in March, including the CIA station housed inside the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and another facility in eastern Iraq. Some sources said additional sites were also hit but did not provide further details. 
One internal memo from a Western intelligence agency, according to a regional official familiar with it, concluded that Russia likely played a role in targeting regional CIA facilities.
Two Western officials in the Gulf briefed on intelligence reports said analysts believe the Saudi attack involved two Russian-enhanced versions of Iran&#8217;s Shahed drones. According to those officials, the first drone breached a vulnerable section of the embassy&#8217;s exterior, allowing the second to fly through the opening before detonating. No deaths or injuries were reported.
While Russia has long supported Iran militarily, helping Tehran target sensitive CIA facilities would mark a significant escalation in Moscow&#8217;s efforts to disrupt U.S. operations amid the ongoing Iran war.
Concerns about Russian assistance intensified after recent strikes on a U.S. military base in Jordan, where Iranian ballistic missiles hit army barracks and killed two soldiers.
Russia has helped Iran improve the range and accuracy of its Shahed drones by supplying the Kometa-M satellite navigation system, which is more resistant to jamming than Iran&#8217;s domestic version. The Wall Street Journal first <a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/russia-secretly-sharing-location-of-u-s-targets-with-iran-u-s-officials-say-127d4f1a">reported</a> this assistance in March; the Kremlin called the report &#8220;<a href="https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2026-03-18/kremlin-says-wsj-report-on-russia-sharing-drone-technology-with-iran-is-fake-news">fake news</a>.&#8221;
U.S. analysts have examined whether Iran relied on Russian targeting intelligence during the embassy attack. Some officials noted that few nations besides Russia would have both the capability and interest in providing such sensitive information against the U.S.
Still, some sources cautioned that Iran might have been targeting the broader U.S. Embassy and struck the CIA station by chance.
Daniel Hoffman, a former CIA station chief and undercover operations officer, said Russian assistance in targeting CIA facilities would be consistent with Moscow&#8217;s strategic partnership with Iran. 
&#8220;They share an interest in trying to reduce or eliminate U.S. influence altogether in their self-designated spheres of influence,&#8221; he said.
The White House referred questions to the CIA, which declined comment. Iran&#8217;s mission to the United Nations, Russia&#8217;s Defense Ministry, and the Saudi government did not respond to Reuters&#8217; requests for comment.
CIA facilities overseas typically include stations in embassies, along with offices, safe houses, logistics hubs, and sites for surveillance or other operations. Their locations remain closely guarded.

The latest episode of &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/real-history-with-matt-walsh">Real History with Matt Walsh</a>&#8221; may be the most important of the series as it exposes the clear connections between communist Russia and modern-day America.
Walsh’s recent release of “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/real-history-ep-6-communism?elementPosition=0&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+Show+Episodes+Carousel">The Real History of Communism: The Russian Revolution</a>” dives into how Left-wing radicals took control of the Russian Empire, killing millions and causing endless suffering for seven decades. Walsh then depicts the similarities of Left-wing radicals taking over Russia over a century ago with what we are seeing in our own country today. 
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/real-history-ep-6-communism">WATCH: The Real History of Communism: The Russian Revolution</a>
“The Real History of Communism: The Russian Revolution” is broken into six chapters, telling the story of the uprising of the communist party. Walsh then examines the eight rules of a communist takeover and how they still apply today.
The episode looks specifically at Vladimir Lenin and the Bolsheviks targeting the family, the church, and the media in 1917 Russia. In the episode, Walsh describes how the “playbook” the Bolsheviks used in their revolution is the same that the Left is using to push radical, resentment-fueled movements on institutions in America in 2026.
The sixth episode is more connected to what is happening today than any of the previous five episodes as it dives into the parallels of communist Russia and current events and headlines in the United States. Viewers don&#8217;t have to be “history buffs” to get invested throughout the episode as Walsh shows the patterns of the communist revolution and leftist tactics.
Walsh aims to tell the main story of communism that was not taught in history classes — the rise of the system and it&#8217;s ability to take over an entire empire. Walsh wants to inform viewers of the true history of communism so Americans realize that history is on pace to repeat itself.
This episode of Real History is only available to Daily Wire members. Right now, Daily Wire is <a href="https://get.dailywire.com/">offering</a> 3 months for $17.76, so it&#8217;s a great opportunity to watch the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/real-history-with-matt-walsh">episodes of Real History</a> you may have missed and be ready have access to everything that&#8217;s still to come.
