Russian MP Mikhail Sheremet has warned that the recent invasion of the Kursk region by Ukrainian forces has pushed the world closer to a potential global conflict, according to RIA Novosti and Reuters.

President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has pledged to take all necessary measures to compensate for the six-month delay in receiving a new 61 billion dollar US aid package. His remarks come in the wake of US President Joe Biden's approval of an initial 1 billion USD arms supply to Kyiv, part of a broader package aimed at supporting Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and Taiwan.

This was stated by the Russian Ambassador to the USA, Anatoly Antonov, adding that the regional conflict would then turn into the third world war.

It is also claimed that the Russian fighters did not open fire on the American aircraft, nor did they have any contact with it.
The announcement states that U.S. aircraft violated the boundaries of the regime area for the use of airspace over the Black Sea, which is why Russian fighter jets were sent to intercept it.

Berlin was expected to announce a decision on Wednesday on the export of powerful German-made Leopard battle tanks long sought by Kiev, and encouraged allies to start training Ukrainian forces to use them.

Western nations have pledged ever-more sophisticated military hardware in recent weeks to help Ukraine repel Russia's invasion, with all eyes in Kiev on the battle tanks.

As reported, the training will take place at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, later this month.

Moscow does not see a desire in Washington for a political solution in Ukraine

Russian Ambassador to the US Anatoly Antonov says such a move would have disastrous consequences.

Kirby, who is the coordinator for strategic communications at the US National Security Council, said in an interview with CNN TV: "Right now, the risks are very high... That's without a doubt."

Western media claim that it is a question of revenge due to, as stated, the recent failures of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, and, as they write, the target was the hometown of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
"Daily Mail" states that the city was covered with water after the attack on the
Kalanchak Dam.
