Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy remains firm on not engaging directly with Russia on peace talks, despite an offer from the Turkish President to host a peace summit between the two countries.
Israel retaliates against Turkey's trade halt by limiting Turkish trade with the Palestinian Authority and seeking sanctions. The move, spurred by Turkey's bid to pressure Israel on Gaza, draws strong condemnation. Erdogan defends Turkey's actions, while Israel vows robust responses, straining relations further amid the ongoing conflict.

Other major CHP victories were scored in Ankara, where
incumbent mayor Mansur Yavas won 60.4% of the vote,

Russian forces carried out an overnight drone attack on Ukraine's Kharkiv and Dnipro regions, causing injuries to at least six individuals and causing damage to critical infrastructure, as well as commercial and residential buildings, according to regional officials on Saturday. The Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russian forces deployed 13 Shahed drones targeting these regions in the northeast and centre of the country. The air defence units successfully intercepted and downed all the drones, as confirmed by the air force commander. However, debris from the downed drones struck civilian targets in Kharkiv, resulting in injuries to four people and igniting a fire in an office building, as stated by the regional governor.
