Ukraine and Russia: What you need to know right now

Conflict

  • Russian occupation authorities in Kherson told civilians they should leave immediately because of what they called the tense military situation as Ukraine’s forces advance.

  • Russia said its forces had prevented an attempt by Ukraine to break through its line of control in the Kherson region, where it anticipates a wider Ukrainian counteroffensive.

  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Russia’s strikes on infrastructure were on a “very wide” scale and pledged that his military would improve on an already good record of downing missiles with help from its partners.

  • A former owner of a prestigious aircraft engine builder Motor Sich in central Ukraine, Vyacheslav Boguslaev, has been detained on treason charges, Ukrainian media reported, quoting security sources.

  • Reuters could not independently verify the reports.

Diplomacy

  • The Group of Seven industrial powers condemned Russia’s kidnapping of Ukrainian leaders at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant and called for the immediate return of full control of the plant to Ukraine.

  • Iran strongly condemned a call by France, Germany and Britain for the United Nations to probe accusations that Russia has used Iranian-origin drones to attack Ukraine.

Quotes

  • “Of course we don’t have the technical ability to knock down 100% of the Russian missiles and strike drones. I am sure that, gradually, we will achieve that, with help from our partners,” Zelenskiy said in his nightly video address.
