Russia thwarts multiple attacks by pro-Kyiv militias in ongoing conflict with Ukraine.
Russia claims to have repelled a second attack by pro-Kyiv militias in the disputed Donbass region of Ukraine. The Russian military accused the Ukrainian army of supporting the militias and warned that any further attacks would be met with a "decisive response." The conflict in Donbass has been ongoing since 2014, when Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine.
