Due to an early landing, the plane avoided interception. Irish authorities classified the incident as a hybrid attack and are investigating further.
Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin visited India for the first time in four years, aiming to strengthen political and economic ties and influence India's stance on the war in Ukraine. Putin reiterated accusations against the West for fueling the conflict and voiced Russia’s desire to end the war, while the Ukrainian side insists that Russian military withdrawal is the only path to peace.
A diplomatic scandal also erupted in Turkey following attacks on a so-called "shadow fleet" vessel. Both Ukrainian and Russian ambassadors were summoned to the Turkish foreign ministry. Ukraine maintains that all shadow trade must cease.
