 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.

JAPANESE PRIME MINISTER TO NOMINATE TRUMP FOR NOBEL PEACE PRIZE. (PHOTO).


 Japanese Prime Minister to nominate Trump for Nobel Peace Prize, says Leavitt 

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Tuesday in Japan that the country’s new Prime Minister, Sanae Takaichi, plans to nominate President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.

It is not yet clear whether Takaichi’s nomination will cite a specific accomplishment. Trump previously claimed in 2019 that the late Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had nominated him for the award. Leavitt’s announcement comes amid a wave of international figures and Republican lawmakers who have publicly put forward Trump’s name for the prize in recent years, seeking to bolster his image as a global peacemaker.

Speaking to U.S. troops in Japan on Tuesday, Trump joked that a forceful military statement he had made could harm his Nobel chances. “That’s a terrible statement for me to make,” he said. “Everybody said that I should immediately get the Nobel Peace Award. With that statement, that takes me out of the run.”

Other leaders from countries including Cambodia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Pakistan, and Israel have also nominated Trump for the award this year. Despite these efforts, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the prize this year to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado for her work promoting democratic rights.

Trump met with Takaichi in Tokyo on Tuesday, exchanging mutual praise. “Anything I can do to help Japan, we will be there,” Trump said. Takaichi, Japan’s first female prime minister, invoked her former mentor Abe in commending Trump. “Prime Minister Abe often told me about your dynamic diplomacy,” she said.
