An unidentified person set fire to a police station on Pionerskaya Street in Komsomolsk-on-Amur city in the Khabarovsk region of Russia. According to Russian media, the suspect first tried to enter the police station with the gasoline he brought with him. The suspect poured gasoline on the door of the police station, after he couldn’t enter the station because the doors were locked. Later on, the suspect set fire to the police station and then disappeared. The moments when the police station surrendered to the flames were recorded by the people around with a mobile phone camera. Meanwhile, the 50-year-old suspect caught in a short time and interrogated by the Russian police. While it isn’t known yet why the suspect carried out the attack, security measures have been increased in the area.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said the recent peace talks in Istanbul have brought a new dimension to diplomatic efforts on Ukraine and proposed a leaders’ summit hosted by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. “A summit with leaders from Russia, Ukraine, and the US could help achieve a long-term ceasefire,” he said.
Speaking at a joint press conference in Kyiv with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, Fidan emphasized Türkiye’s ongoing diplomatic efforts, stating that President Erdoğan has been working actively since the war began. He added that talks in Istanbul on May 16 led to concrete results, including a prisoner swap.
Fidan shared insights from his prior visit to Moscow and said Russia is open to further talks on June 2. He stressed the importance of continuing momentum and involving international actors to build common ground for peace.
Fidan is also scheduled to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Andriy Yermak, Rustem Umerov, and representatives of the Crimean Tatar and Gagauz Turkish communities.
