Putin cancels Navy Day parade, claims Ukraine regions will return to neighbors
Putin rambles in TV speech after cancelling Navy Day parade fearing an attack by Ukraine · wionews.com

Russian President Vladimir Putin canceled a big Navy Day parade in St. Petersburg because he was worried Ukraine might attack.

Instead, he gave a speech where he said that parts of Ukraine might one day belong to Hungary, Romania, and Poland.

Meanwhile, Ukraine has been sending drones deep into Russia to attack important places, like an air base where a big bomber was destroyed.

These drones can fly for a long time and go very far, showing that Ukraine is fighting back strongly.

Putin tried to make it seem like Russia is winning the war, but Ukraine's actions show they are causing significant problems for Russia.
