Zakhar Prilepin, a famous Russian nationalist writer and supporter of the offensive against Ukraine, was injured Saturday in the "explosion" of his car in Russia. Another person was killed in the incident in the Nizhny Novgorod region.

Ukraine says it shot down a Russian Kinjal-type hypersonic missile for the first time in strikes carried out by Moscow overnight Wednesday to Thursday. Russia accuses the United States, NATO and Ukraine of plotting the "terrorist" attack against nationalist writer Zakhar Prilépine.
