At least four people were killed and five were injured in a Russian attack on the city of Kamianske in central-eastern Ukraine, the Dnipropetrovsk regional military administration said. "Four people were killed and five others were injured in the Russian attack on Kamianske. Three of the wounded are hospitalized. Among them is a 30-year-old woman who is in intensive care," the head of the regional administration Oleksandr Ganzha reported on Telegram. The attack occurred despite Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky having proposed a ceasefire with Russia ahead of a planned visit to Moscow and Kiev this weekend by US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner.
In its proposal for a solution to the war in Ukraine, the United States must take into account the reality on the ground, which is not in Kiev's favor. This was supported by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, interviewed by Tass on the announced visit of the US presidential special envoy Steve Whitkoff and Donald Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to Moscow. The American president explained that his envoys, expected in Moscow today and tomorrow in Kiev, will bring a peace proposal. “The main question is how much the US administration is ready to invest in finding a real solution to the current crisis, taking into account, among other things, the realities on the ground. Not only the root causes, which we constantly talk about, but also the situation that is constantly changing and not in Kiev's favor,” the deputy minister said. After the 2025 Anchorage summit, he continued, the situation has developed in such a way as to leave "many questions about how ready the American side, in its approach to the complex problems to be solved, is to adhere to a solid framework."

The war between Iran and the United States is causing a significant economic impact both in the countries directly involved and in those dependent on supplies from the Gulf, with Italy having faced indirect expenditure of almost 14 billion euros between March and August 2026 for fuel, gas and electricity, while in the USA military and energy costs reach figures between 80 and 100 billion dollars and 93 billion respectively, with effects on family bills and interest rates.

US President Donald Trump has warned Iran that if it is not 'smart' it will end up with a 'Strait of Hormuz that will no longer be needed', referring to new pipelines that could bypass the strait crucial for the transit of a fifth of global oil and gas. Meanwhile, the Israeli army launched raids in the West Bank towns of Nazla al-Sharqiya and Qaffin, north of Tulkarem, and in the dormitories of the Arab-American University of Jenin, as well as other locations in the West Bank, without reporting any arrests. In Lebanon, Israeli strikes in the south and east left three people dead and at least 23 injured, targeting five affected locations in the regions of Tyre, Nabatieh and Bekaa, in response to a Hezbollah drone attack on Israeli troops in the southern Lebanon security zone. Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on X that regional countries must take their future into their own hands, arguing that Iran is ready for a new regional security architecture. A US intelligence report reported by the New York Times says that after six months of war, Iran has become more confident in its ability to attack targets in the Middle East and appears determined to continue the conflict to exasperate the United States, with possible attacks on American military bases or hybrid warfare actions, and suspicions of Iranian cyberattacks on more than 100 US water systems. The leader of the Democratic senators Chuck Schumer harshly criticized Trump for calling the war in Iran 'stupid', recalling the human losses and economic effects on American citizens.

The United States and Mexico are coordinating operations against drones used by drug cartels and migrant trafficking networks along their common border, with information exchange and joint patrols on their respective territory, as confirmed by Mexican Defense Minister Ricardo Trevilla Trejo.

US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will travel to Moscow and then Kiev in the next few days to present a peace proposal wanted by Donald Trump. Meanwhile, mutual attacks continue: Ukraine hits oil depots in Sochi and Russian ships in the Black Sea, while Russia launches four attacks against warehouses in the Kiev region. Zelensky calls for cessation of airstrikes during negotiators' visits, but Kremlin denies any joint security agreement. Tajani denounces continuous hybrid cyberattacks against the West, while Meloni ensures 360-degree vigilance on Russian influences.
Trump works on a post-war Middle East plan to contain Iran and expand the Abraham Accords. EU joins US sanctions. The Pentagon extends troop deployment until 2027. Israeli attacks in Lebanon cause three deaths. Scott Bessent expects oil prices to drop to $40-50 a barrel. Iran threatens preventive operations. Polls show Trump's approval drop to 32%.

Ecuador has defended joint operations with the United States that led to the sinking of three boats suspected of supporting drug trafficking, saying the actions are part of international investigations and are not carried out lightly. The ships were allegedly used by the Los Choneros criminal group as supply stations to transport drugs to Mexico and the United States.
