The stunning operation, conducted by Ukraine’s Armed Forces, amounts to the first ground invasion by a foreign power of Russian territory since World War II. It also appears to be the most severe blow for the Kremlin since warlord Yevgeny Prigozhin'sinsurrection in June 2023. "It has caused significant damage to Putin's prestige,” R...

PresidentVolodymyr Zelensky unveiled two of the first U.S.-made fighter jets sporting blue-and-yellow roundels and a Ukrainian coat of arms in a ceremony on Aug. 4, confirming earlier media reports.
