2:46 a.m .: Russia denounces Ukrainian attacks on its territory
Russia has accused Ukraine of attacking its territory, including launching a drone against an air base in Russian territory, hundreds of kilometers from the front, the second such operation this month.
The Russian security services (FSB) also claimed to have "eliminated" Ukrainian "saboteurs" who were trying to enter the Russian region of Bryansk from Ukraine.
The Ukrainian authorities made no comment, as usual, on these two incidents.
According to Russian news agencies, a Ukrainian drone was shot down as it approached the Engels base in the Saratov region, some 600 km from Ukraine, at night.
11:41 p.m .: “Either Ukraine fulfills Russia’s conditions, or the military will decide,” says Lavrov
Moscow's proposals for the "demilitarization" and "denazification" of Ukraine are known to kyiv and it is up to the Ukrainian authorities to respond to them, the Russian Foreign Minister said, adding that, otherwise, the Russian army would undertake to settle the question.
"Our proposals for the demilitarization and denazification of the territories controlled by the regime, to end the threats to the security of Russia emanating from (these territories), in particular against our new provinces, are well known to the enemy", reported the official Russian news agency, citing Sergey Lavrov.
