On the Crimean peninsula, annexed by Russia, the Russian anti-aircraft guns have allegedly shot down drones in two strategically important locations. There was a defense against air raids on Thursday evening at Crimea’s largest military airfield, Belbek near Sevastopol, as local governor Mikhail Rasvozhayev announced. In the Russian region of Belgorod, an ammunition depot caught fire near the border with Ukraine. The incidents far behind the actual front took place just hours after a tripartite summit of Ukraine, the United Nations and Turkey in Lviv.

There, UN Secretary-General António Guterres and Turkish Head of State Recep Tayyip Erdogan discussed with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy whether talks about an end to the war that had been going on for six months were possible. Zelenskyy reiterated that negotiations would only be possible once Russia had evacuated all illegally occupied areas in Ukraine.
