The target was Andrii Yusov, spokesperson for Ukrainian military intelligence and deputy head of Ukraine's Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War, he confirmed later in the day.

"I don't know how we can even talk about negotiations," Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.

Russian forces launched 155 drones, 124 of which were intercepted, according to Ukraine's Air Force.

The drone entered the country after being diverted by Russian electronic warfare systems, Latvia's military said.

"Now is precisely the time for the European Union to provide real support to Armenia," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

Ukraine's military reportedly launched another onslaught of middle strikes on Russian and Russian-occupied regions overnight on June 8, striking multiple oil depots and electrical substations, Russian Telegram media channels reported.

The number includes 1,330 casualties that Russian forces suffered over the past day.

The leaders of the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, and Ukraine issued a joint statement on June 7 setting out five conditions that must be met between Kyiv and Moscow to bring a resolution to Russia's war in Ukraine.

Ukrainian drones continued their medium-range on western Russia, as well as Russian-occupied territories on June 7, damaging and destroying several military targets, Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces (USF) reported.

Zelensky said in a June 7 interview with Sky News that he asked Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich to deliver a message to Putin: Ukraine will never surrender Donbas, and Zelensky is ready to meet with Putin.

The attack was carried out with Ukraine's homemade Fire Point drones and new long-range Behemoth UAV, causing significant damage to the bridge, the military said.

The attack partially destroyed the repository's container reception building, though no spent nuclear fuel was being stored there at the time.

Finnish President Alexander Stubb also outlined a three-step approach for restarting diplomacy with Moscow.

Russia's Defense Ministry said its air defenses intercepted 95 Ukrainian drones overnight over Russian territory and occupied Crimea.
