Today’s top news regarding Russia
Russia-Ukraine War Developments
Large-scale Attacks: Russian forces launched a major overnight drone and missile attack on Sunday, December 7, 2025, damaging power and heat facilities in at least eight Ukrainian regions and causing blackouts. Ukrainian officials reported downing the majority of the incoming drones and missiles.
Civilian Casualties: Recent attacks have resulted in civilian deaths, including two men unloading firewood in Izyum and a 12-year-old boy in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
Frontline Situation: Russian President Vladimir Putin reiterated that Russia will take all of Ukraine’s Donbas region by force, a claim that Ukraine has dismissed as “loud statements”. The battlefield picture is reportedly worsening for Ukraine as Russian forces advance on several fronts.
Nuclear Concerns: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported that the protective shield at the Chernobyl nuclear plant may no longer be able to contain radiation after a drone strike, and the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant temporarily lost all off-site power.
Peace Talks and Diplomacy
Stalled Negotiations: U.S. and Ukrainian officials met in Miami for a third day of talks to end the war, with both sides indicating that progress depends on Russia’s commitment to peace. However, talks have stalled and no major breakthrough has been reached.
Differing Stances: Putin stated there are points he cannot agree to in the U.S. peace proposal. Ukrainian military leadership has called giving up territory “unacceptable” for any peace deal.
International Relations: French President Emmanuel Macron reportedly warned in a leaked call that the U.S. might “betray Ukraine on territory,” though he later denied the claim. The Kremlin stated it is waiting for the U.S. response after the Miami talks.
Domestic and Economic News
Technology Crackdown: Russia’s state communications watchdog, Roskomnadzor, has intensified its campaign against foreign platforms, blocking Snapchat and restricting access to Apple’s FaceTime service, accusing them of being used for “terrorist acts”.
India Relations: During a visit to India, Putin pledged “uninterrupted” fuel supplies to the country and agreed with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to diversify economic and defense ties, despite U.S. sanctions.
Economic Outlook: A Kremlin-linked think tank has warned that Russia could face a systemic banking crisis by late 2026, though the Central Bank has rejected the warning.— Michael Novakhov (@mikenov) Dec 7, 2025
