Ukraine said that its air defences shot down one of four Russian hypersonic missiles in the western region of Ivano-Frankivsk. Ukraine’s military said that the Kinzhal hypersonic missile was destroyed within the Kyiv region. Ukrainian Air Force spokesperson Yurii Ihnat said that the Kinzhal missiles were fired at the Ivano-Frankivsk airfield. Ihnat added that Russians were targeting Ukrainian pilots who are soon to go to Europe for training. Russian military blogger “WarGonzo” said that Kyiv’s troops have “managed to expand control” in Robotyne in the Zaporizhzhia region. WarGonzo said the expansion of Ukrainian control was across a width of 6 kms, but in terms of depth it was insignificant. A Ukrainian Intelligence official has said that those living in Moscow should expect more attacks. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said that Ukraine needs to cease fire in order to pave the way for peace. Zelensky has dismissed all heads of Ukraine's regional military committees amid a sprawling probe in armed forces recruitment. The mass dismissal comes amid a sprawling anti-corruption probe within the military, which has already produced more than 100 criminal cases. Putin ally and Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko said he wishes to maintain relations with EU countries. Lukashenko made his remarks after a visit to Minsk national airport, where he addressed Belarusian aviation under Western sanctions.
