A Russian drone strike hit a spent nuclear fuel storage facility near the Chornobyl plant, with Ukrainian officials reporting a fire, no injuries, and stable radiation levels. This incident occurred hours before Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was due to meet UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz in London to discuss European support for Ukraine.

The St Petersburg International Economic Forum was overshadowed by Ukrainian drone attacks on the city, as President Vladimir Putin dismissed an offer for peace talks from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Putin affirmed an uncompromising stance on the conflict, while the forum attempted to project an image of economic stability despite growing pressures.
