President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Ukraine has requested a meeting with dictator Putin during the G7 summit, which is due to take place on 15–17 June in Evian-les-Bains, France.

At around 01:30, Russian forces struck the Oleksandr Dovzhenko National Film Studio in Kyiv.

Europe is stepping up the development of its own long-range systems. Ukrainian manufacturers are already getting involved in these programmes: ‘Ukrainian Armoured Vehicles’ has become a partner of MBDA, Europe’s largest missile manufacturer.

On the night of 15 June (from 18:00 on 14 June), Russian forces launched a massive combined strike on Ukrainian territory using attack drones and various types of missiles. The main target of the attack was Kyiv, whilst Dnipro and Kharkiv were also hit by missile strikes.

Rescue workers have extinguished fires covering an area of approximately 800 square metres at the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra and 1,000 square metres at the Mystetskyi Arsenal, which were caused by Russian strikes on Kyiv.

The death toll from Russia’s large-scale attack on Kyiv has risen.

Four rescue workers were killed and nine others injured overnight following a second Russian strike on a civilian facility in Kharkiv.

Efforts to deal with the aftermath of Russia’s massive attack on Ukraine are ongoing.

As a result of a night-time attack in Kyiv, windows were smashed and the façade of the High Anti-Corruption Court of Ukraine on Khreshchatyk Street was damaged.

Russian forces have launched yet another massive combined attack on Kyiv. Damage and fires have been reported in almost all districts of the capital. Emergency services are currently operating at around 50 locations.
