U.S. President Donald Trump drew attention at the NATO Summit after a series of verbal slips during public interactions. Among the most discussed moments was a remark in which he appeared to refer to Iran as the "Islamic Republic of Japan." The comments quickly sparked reactions across social media and political circles, overshadowing parts of the summit's agenda. Here's a closer look at the remarks, the reactions they generated, and the broader discussion surrounding high-profile political gaffes.

Russia has intensified its attacks across Ukraine, leaving at least 26 people dead within 48 hours as cities and civilian areas come under heavy bombardment. In response, Ukraine has launched a new phase of its drone campaign, targeting Russia's shadow fleet of oil tankers instead of focusing solely on refineries. More than 20 Russian-linked oil tankers were reportedly struck within 72 hours, raising concerns about disruptions to Moscow's oil exports and revenue streams. The strikes could have major implications for the war, global energy markets, and sanctions enforcement.

Kyiv endured a third straight night of Russian strikes that killed seven people, with fresh explosions reported in Kyiv and Kharkiv. As the attacks intensified, Zelensky pressed NATO leaders for more air defence systems, warning that civilians are bearing the brunt. Ukraine also stepped up long-range strikes inside Russia, hitting what Zelensky called "every major Russian refinery," including the country's largest. Trump said he spoke with both Zelensky and Putin. With escalation on both sides, the war is entering another dangerous phase.

Ukraine says it has exhausted Patriot PAC-3 interceptor missiles, leaving Kyiv vulnerable to ballistic strikes as Russia steps up large-scale attacks that included waves of drones and missiles hitting Kharkiv and Sumy. This video explains how Patriot system works, why PAC-3 shortages raise risk, and why Kyiv is urgently appealing to nearly 40 partners for transfers.  Russia’s latest missile strike on the Ukrainian capital, which left at least 12 people dead and nearly 50 injured, has laid bare a harsh reality: Ukraine has all but exhausted its supply of Patriot interceptors used to defend against ballistic missiles.


The Patriot gap: Why every Russian missile is now more dangerous for Kyiv

Trump says Putin and Zelenskyy both want the war settled. But on the ground, the story is different. Zelenskyy tells NATO that Kyiv brings "extraordinary defensive capability" — even as reports warn of a critical shortage of Patriot missiles leaving cities exposed. 


Russia-Ukraine war: Russia exploits interceptor gap to intensify strikes

The war is escalating on both fronts. Ukraine says it has struck deep inside Russia, while Moscow responded with a deadly ballistic attack on Kyiv that killed at least 8 people in Vyshneve. President Zelensky called it "ballistic terror" and said civilians are paying the price. At the same time, Zelensky is set to meet President Trump at the NATO summit in Ankara, where air defense will be top of the agenda. In a blunt admission, the NATO chief said the alliance is facing an interceptor shortage for Ukraine. As missiles fly both ways, the pressure to get more air defense to Kyiv has never been higher.
