Ukrainian intelligence agents have successfully thwarted a Russian plan to assassinate Volodymyr Zelensky. The SBU State Security Service of Ukraine revealed that they apprehended Russian agents embedded within the Ukrainian state guard service. These agents were allegedly plotting to kidnap and assassinate the president along with other high-ranking government officials. According to Vasyl Malyuk, the Head of the SBU, the failed assassination attempt was intended as a "gift" to Vladimir Putin just before his upcoming inauguration on Tuesday. The SBU stated that they arrested two suspected "moles" who they believe were recruited by Russia prior to the invasion

In defiance of Russia's nuclear threats, Lithuania remains steadfast in its commitment to dispatch soldiers for a training mission in Ukraine, as stated by Lithuanian Prime Minister Ingrida Simonyte in an interview with the Financial Times published on Wednesday. Simonyte's remarks come in the wake of the Russian Defense Ministry's declaration of preparations for tactical nuclear weapons exercises, citing Western "threats and provocations." Addressing concerns over potential Russian reactions, Simonyte emphasised that succumbing to such fears would paralyse action, highlighting the recurring spectre of nuclear threats. She reiterated Lithuania's resolve to support Ukraine with troops despite the risks.
