US President Donald Trump’s efforts to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine may face a major setback. For the first time in the four (04) year long war, Ukraine has targeted a Russian submarine. The special thing is that Ukraine attacked this submarine parked at a port in the Black Sea with an underwater drone.

Ukraine’s intelligence agency, SBU (Security Bureau) has carried out this attack and has also released a video after the attack. According to SBU, this submarine of Varsha Vyanka (Kilo) class parked at Novorossiysk port of Russia in the Black Sea has been targeted. This attack submarine, named Project 636.3, was equipped with four caliber missiles.

The submarine was targeted during the war
In the SBU video, it can be seen that along with a submarine, at least half a dozen warships and boats are standing at Novorossiysk port. Meanwhile, there is a massive explosion in the submarine. Ukraine claims that the submarine and its missiles have been disabled by the attack. The special thing is that after almost 50 years, a submarine has been targeted during a war. Last time, during the India-Pakistan war of 1971, a submarine named INS Ghazi was destroyed in the Bay of Bengal near Visakhapatnam port (Andhra Pradesh). This Pakistani submarine had come with the intention of targeting the Indian warships stationed in Visakhapatnam, but during that time there was a massive explosion in this submarine and PNS Ghazi got grounded in the Bay of Bengal. The wreckage of PNS Ghazi is still lying in the sea near Visakhapatnam.

Russian Defense Ministry said wrong
After Ukraine’s claim, Russia’s Defense Ministry termed the reports of the submarine being inoperative as completely false. Quoting Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, the Defense Ministry said that no submarine or ship was damaged in Ukraine’s underwater drone attack. Nor were there any Russian naval casualties in the attack. Russia claims that the submarine that was attacked is fully operational. In the initial weeks of the war, Ukraine had destroyed the Russian Moskva ship in the Black Sea through a missile attack. Russian sailors stationed on the ship also lost their lives in this attack.

Attack on Russian submarine in Black Sea may trigger war
It is noteworthy that Ukraine has targeted the Russian submarine at a time when two-day peace talks were organized in Berlin. Representatives of Ukraine, America and European Union participated in this meeting. After the meeting, Trump spoke on the phone with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and discussed stopping the war. The attack on a Russian submarine in the Black Sea could once again ignite the fire of war and there is a possibility of the war being prolonged. The war between Russia and Ukraine started on 24 February 2022. In such a situation, within two months, the war will complete four years.

The Russian Defense Ministry said on Saturday (October 25, 2025) that on Friday (October 24, 2025) Russian air defense systems shot down 281 Ukrainian drones, nine of which were hovering over Moscow. The ministry said in a statement, ‘The air defense system has shot down two guided aerial bombs and 281 fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).’

According to the report of Xinhua news agency, the Defense Ministry said on Friday that Russian air defense systems shot down 1,441 Ukrainian UAVs last week. The air defense system shot down one Ukrainian Su-27 aircraft, four cruise missiles, 18 guided aerial bombs, 15 rocket projectiles of the American HIMARS multiple launch rocket system, as well as 1,441 fixed-wing UAVs, the ministry said in a statement.

Ukrainian Air Force claimed the attack

According to the Ukrainian Air Force, Russia launched 62 drones and nine missiles during the overnight attack on Ukraine. Air defense units shot down 50 drones and four missiles. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said the city was targeted by ballistic missiles.

Timur Tkachenko, head of the Kyiv City Military Administration, said on social media that the attack sparked fires in several areas, broke windows in residential buildings and damaged a kindergarten in the eastern part of the city.

Dam damaged in attack by Ukrainian armed forces

Meanwhile, a local official said on Saturday that a dam built on a local reservoir in Belgorod, Russia, has been damaged in an attack by Ukrainian armed forces. “We understand that the enemy may try to launch another attack to destroy the dam,” Belgorod Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said on social media. If this happens, there will be a risk of flooding of the river flood plain from the Kharkiv region and many streets of our settlement, where about 1,000 residents live.

He said that in view of the threat of flooding, the regional government is starting to provide temporary shelter in Belgorod to residents who are at risk of flooding and who have no other option. On Friday, Gladkov said that Belgorod was attacked by 47 drones, of which 35 were shot down and disabled. Nine civilians were injured, including a 12-year-old boy.

On Friday (September 12, 2025) over the Russia-Ukraine war peace talks, Russia said that peace talks with Ukraine have been postponed. It is considered to be the failure of US President Donald Trump’s diplomatic effort to end the ongoing war between the two countries for more than 3 years.

After a conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska, President Trump said that Russia has agreed to talk, but Russia has continued its aggressive and expanded airstrikes on Ukrainian cities.

Straight summit will end the deadlock

According to AFP, Russia spokesman Dimitri Peskov said, ‘Our conversation is still in touch in different ways, but at the moment it would be right to say that the conversation is stagnated. You cannot expect that a big result came out immediately from the conversation.

The President of Russia has so far denied a meeting with Ukraine and believes that only a direct summit can break the deadlock. In Istanbul, in three rounds of talks, there was no significant result in addition to the exchange of prisoners on a large scale and Russia is still adamant about its demands.

US President warns Russia

These demands include complete acquisition of Eastern Donbas region from Ukraine. Kiev has turned down any kind of regional agreement or concession. Instead, it has demanded to deploy European peace soldiers, but Russia has completely rejected the proposal.

Last week, Russia launched the most aggressive attack in Ukraine, in which several civilians were killed and a government building caught fire in the middle Kiev. After these attacks, the US President warned of strict ban on Russia. However, no such restrictions have been imposed by the US.

Russia attacked Ukraine with missiles and drones on Thursday (August 28, 2025), killing a total of 15 people, including 4 children in Ukraine. Reacting to this, President Volodimir Jailonsky said that this is Russia’s reply amid diplomatic efforts to end the war.

The attack has damaged the buildings of seven districts including the headquarters of the European Union Mission and the British Council. Ukraine’s army said that air defense systems have killed 563 out of about 600 drones offered by Russia across the country and 26 out of 31 missiles.

38 citizens injured in an hour -long attack

According to the Reuters report, the rescue team reached the attack site, where a building was converted into debris. During the excavation of the debris, 2 bodies were found. Officials said that at least 38 citizens of Ukraine were injured in this attack from Russia for hours.

The Ukrainian army said that Russia attacked a total of 13 places. At the same time, national grid operator Ukranego said that energy facilities have suffered a lot. Regarding Russia’s attack, Ukrainian President Jailonsky posted on ‘X’ and wrote, ‘Russia chooses ballistic missiles instead of sitting on the table of conversation. He wants to continue murder instead of ending the war.

Russian Ministry of Defense reacted

At the same time, the Russian Defense Ministry said that the army had attacked military industrial bases and airports. Russia has always been denying allegations of targeting citizens, but in recent times, dozens of people have died during the attack in densely populated areas.

During the attack, smoke clouds appeared in the night and the sounds of the explosion came. Mayor Vitali Clitsko has described it as one of the biggest attacks on the city in recent months. He said that even after a meeting with US President Donald Trump in Alaska, it did not show any special result.

British PM condemns Russian attack

European Council President Antonio Costa wrote on social media ‘X’, ‘I am shocked from another night of the deadly Russian missile attacks on Ukraine. My condolences are with Ukraine’s afflicted citizens and employees there, whose building was damaged in Russian attacks. The European Union will not be afraid of it.

British Prime Minister Kir Starmar also condemned the Russian attack on Ukraine and wrote, ‘My condolences are with all the people of Keev affected by Russian attacks. The British Council building has been damaged in the attack. Putin is killing children and citizens and is turning water on the expectations of peace.
