Russian air defenses shoot down 44 Ukrainian UAVs
Moscow - Saba: The Russian Defense Ministry announced today Thursday that 44 Ukrainian drones were downed last night over several regions. Sputnik quoted the ministry as saying in a statement: "Last night, from 8:00 PM on Wednesday until 7:00 AM Moscow time on Thursday, Russian air defense systems intercepted and destroyed 44 Ukrainian drones." The statement added: "Fourteen drones were destroyed over the Black Sea basin, nine over the Volgograd region, seven over Crimea, seven over Rostov region, four over Krasnodar region, two over Belgorod region, and one over the Sea of Azov basin." The governor of the Russian Belgorod region, Vyacheslav Gladkov, announced on Thursday that Kyiv regime forces had shelled the regional government building. Gladkov wrote in a statement posted on his Telegram channel: "I was walking now, and the government building was shelled at the time. Minor damage was reported in the area." Ukrainian Armed Forces target Russian border areas in Crimea and the Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh regions almost daily with drones and missiles. Russian forces, for their part, respond by targeting exclusively Ukrainian military infrastructure, as well as facilities of the military-industrial complex, everything related to the storage, repair, or manufacture of military equipment, and centers for the concentration of Ukrainian Armed Forces personnel and foreign mercenaries.

Russian security announces destruction of Ukrainian facilities for production of missile systems
Moscow - Saba: The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) announced today Thursday that, in cooperation with the Ministry of Defense, it had thwarted a secret Ukrainian missile program aimed at developing "Sapsan" ballistic missiles capable of targeting deep inside Russia. Russian authorities confirmed that the joint operation resulted in the destruction of Ukrainian facilities specialized in military industries, which were being used to develop and manufacture these missiles. They pointed out that the preemptive information obtained by the security services allowed them to determine the precise coordinates of these facilities before carrying out the strikes with high accuracy. The RT channel quoted the Russian Federal Security Service as saying in a statement that 'Ukraine relied in the development of this missile program on technologies and military stockpiles remaining from the Soviet era, within what it described as 'a secret project to enhance its long-range offensive capabilities.'' The statement added: 'With authorization from NATO representatives, Ukraine planned to use the 'Sapsan' system to launch an attack deep into Russian territory, but thanks to the joint efforts of the Russian Federal Security Service and the Russian Armed Forces, the plans to develop the Ukrainian missile program were thwarted.' Moscow confirmed that the entire technical base for the production of Ukraine's long-range ballistic missiles was completely destroyed, which constitutes 'a decisive preemptive strike' to prevent any future threat of this kind. Reports indicated that the production of "Sapsan" missiles was taking place at defense facilities located in the Dnipropetrovsk and Sumy regions in eastern Ukraine, which were targeted in the recent military operation.

Putin says UAE could host Trump summit
"We have many friends who are willing to help us organise such events. One of our friends is the president of the United Arab Emirates," Putin said standing next to UAE leader Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, adding "it (the UAE) would be one of the quite suitable places". The Kremlin said Thursday that a summit between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin was set for the "coming days", both sides having already agreed the venue "in principle". The Russian President, however, said that "conditions" for a potential meeting with Volodymyr Zelensky had not been met, hours after the Ukrainian leader repeated a call for direct talks. "I have nothing against it in general, it is possible, but certain conditions must be created for this. But unfortunately, we are still far from creating such conditions," Putin told reporters at the Kremlin. The summit between Trump and Putin would be the first between sitting US and Russian presidents since Joe Biden met Putin in Geneva in June 2021. It comes as Trump seeks to broker an end to Russia's military operation on Ukraine. Three rounds of direct talks between Moscow and Kyiv have failed to yield any progress towards a ceasefire. The two sides appear as far apart as ever in the conditions they have set for an end to the more than three-year-long conflict. Trump said Wednesday he was likely to meet Putin face-to-face "very soon." They last sat together in 2019 at G20 summit meeting in Japan but have spoken by phone several times since Trump returned to the White House. "At the suggestion of the American side, an agreement has been reached in principle to hold a bilateral summit in the coming days," Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said Thursday in a Kremlin statement. "We are now starting to work out the details together with our American colleagues," he added. The Kremlin said a venue had also been agreed "in principle", but did not name it.
