Dmitry Medvedev shared a video of Russia’s Oreshnik hypersonic missile striking a Ukrainian defense facility in Dnepropetrovsk, clarifying that it wasn’t an ICBM, but a medium-range missile developed after the US withdrew from the INF Treaty. The strike responded to Ukraine's use of Western long-range missiles against Russian territory. Putin warned further actions by Ukraine and its allies would trigger a suitable response, emphasizing the Oreshnik’s speed makes it invincible to air defenses.

In a rare and high-stakes diplomatic exchange, Russian President Vladimir Putin and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz reconnected for the first time in nearly two years, engaging in a detailed and frank hour-long conversation. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov characterised the call as a candid discussion where both leaders outlined their positions on the Ukraine conflict. Putin, speaking in Russian through a translator despite his German proficiency, reiterated Moscow’s demands for Ukraine’s neutrality, demilitarisation, and the recognition of Russian-annexed territories. Scholz, facing a political crisis at home, pressed for a withdrawal of Russian troops and reaffirmed Germany’s strong support for Ukraine. The timing of the call, coinciding with key international events, marks a pivotal moment in Russia-Germany relations as diplomatic tensions continue to mount.
