 Russia launches massive drone and missile barrage on Ukraine, killing at least 18 civilians and striking Kyiv and multiple cities  Russia carried out a large-scale overnight assault on Ukraine, launching hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles that killed at least 18 civilians and wounded more than 100 others across multiple cities, officials said Tuesday. The strikes hit Kyiv, Dnipro and other regions, with emergency crews working through destroyed residential buildings where some victims were trapped under rubble. In Dnipro, rescuers recovered the bodies of a 3-year-old child and a mother and her 8-year-old son, while officials reported 12 deaths in the city and six in Kyiv. The bombardment stretched from night into daylight, with explosions reported across wide areas of the country. Kyiv residents had been on alert for days after warnings of a major aerial attack, including advisories for foreign diplomats to leave the capital. Despite those warnings, most remained in pl...

 Trump pledges national emergency in Washington, DC, over ICE conflict

President Donald Trump announced Monday that he would declare a national emergency and federalize Washington, D.C., after Mayor Muriel Bowser stated that the city’s police would not cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The dispute centers on sharing information about individuals living in or entering the United States illegally, and Trump’s move has drawn criticism as an example of federal overreach, with more than 2,000 troops currently patrolling the city.

The announcement comes after thousands of protesters took to the streets earlier this month following Trump’s August deployment of National Guard troops to restore what he called “law, order, and public safety” in response to rising crime concerns. Trump posted on Truth Social that the city is “absolutely booming… for the first time in decades, virtually NO CRIME.” Bowser’s office did not immediately respond to the comments.

Trump previously placed the metropolitan police department under federal control and deployed federal law enforcement, including ICE agents, to patrol the streets. The timeline for their mission remains unclear. He accused “Radical Left Democrats” of pressuring Bowser to withhold cooperation with ICE, warning that crime would surge if local police stopped assisting federal authorities. “To the people and businesses of Washington, D.C., DON’T WORRY, I AM WITH YOU, AND WON’T ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN. I’ll call a National Emergency, and Federalize, if necessary!!!” Trump wrote.

Bowser, who has acknowledged the crime reduction from the federal surge, previously signed an order directing city coordination with federal law enforcement. Unlike state National Guards, which report to their governors unless federalized, the D.C. National Guard answers directly to the president.
