Russia has blamed the United States for a “barbaric” attack in Crimea that relied on US-provided missiles and killed at least four, including children, and wounded 151 others. Russia’s Foreign Ministry summoned US Ambassador Lynne Tracy on Monday and accused the US of waging a “proxy war” and said retaliatory measures would “definitely follow”. Moscow says the attack was carried out with US weapons, while Washington says Ukraine has the right to defend its sovereignty. Al Jazeera’s Imran Ullah Khan reports.

Russian President Vladimir Putin claims the Ukrainian counter-offensive is “not succeeding.” Russia’s air defence forces and fleet in the Black Sea shot down ten Ukrainian drones over the Crimean port of Sevastopol, according to Russian officials. According to Ukrainian and Polish officials, Wagner Group fighters have arrived in Belarus from Russia. Putin says Russia has a “sufficient stockpile” of cluster bombs and reserves the right to use them if such munitions are used against Russian forces in Ukraine.

Russia’s defence minister Sergei Shoigu says Ukraine plans to strike Crimea, with long-range HIMARS artillery and Storm Shadow missiles, according to a report from Russia’s TASS news agency. “The use of HIMARS and Storm Shadow missiles outside the special operation zone will mean the full involvement of the United States and Great Britain in the conflict,” Shoigu said, adding that Russia will retaliate.
