A Ukrainian court sentenced the governor of Kaluga Oblast in Russia to 8 years in prison for aiding Russian forces in the war against Ukraine.

Russia's civil aviation authority reported that the Kaluga airport has temporarily halted operations for security reasons, as Russian officials claim to have repelled a drone attack on the Rostov region, while a drone attack on a farm in the Bryansk region has left one person injured.

A fire at the former Volkswagen factory in the Kaluga region, specifically in a foam recycling workshop, was extinguished with no reported injuries, but operations may be halted according to unconfirmed reports.
