Russia-Ukraine war: List of key events, day 1,254

WooGlobe

On Day 1,254 of the Russia-Ukraine war, tragedy struck Kyiv as Russian missile attacks killed 26 people — including 3 children — and wounded over 150 more. While Russia claims military targets were hit, the human cost is devastating. Meanwhile, Moscow says it has taken Chasiv Yar, but Kyiv denies the claim. Ukraine isn’t backing down — its drones struck deep into Russian territory, targeting a military electronics plant.  In a dramatic political twist, the US Senate approved $1B in military aid for Ukraine, despite President Trump pushing for peace talks. Trump set an August 8 deadline for Putin to agree to a ceasefire — or face sanctions. Tensions escalated as Trump clashed with Russian officials over nuclear threats.  Back in Ukraine, hope emerged as parliament restored the independence of two vital anti-corruption agencies. And in the east, China and Russia prepare for joint naval drills, adding a global layer to this already complex war.
