On the night of August 30, Ukrainian drones attacked several regions of Russia. One of the targets, according to monitoring resources and satellite imagery published online, was a military airfield in Yeysk, Krasnodar Krai.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova described as “provocative” remarks by Armenian Security Council Secretary Armen Grigoryan about Yerevan’s readiness to accept Russians who may want to leave Russia in the event of a new mobilization. In her view, the Armenian official’s statement “encourages Russian citizens to engage in unlawful actions” and gives traditional Armenian hospitality a “toxic political coloring.”

A preliminary examination of the body of Abkhaz blogger and activist Daur Buava, who was found dead in Tbilisi, revealed no signs of violence. The Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs told the Georgian news agency IPN.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov doubted that Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan fully trusts his voters. The reason for this was the Armenian prime minister's remarks about a possible referendum on the country's accession to the European Union.
