Russia Ministry of Defense announced that Yars Intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) has been deployed in in the city of Kozelsk in the Kaluga region, close to the border of Ukraine-Belarus, in central Russia. Ministry stated that the Kozelsk missile formation is the first area to be equipped with the Yars missile system with a range of 10 thousand kilometers.
Also within the scope of the “Union State” agreement with Belarus, Russian planes, which carried out flights with strategic bombers in the region last month, also made long-term flights on the Belarus-Poland border. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky recently announced that they could enter a major war with Russia. Russia’s placing of missiles on the border was described as intimidation to Ukraine.

While some remain cautious, many residents in Erbil and border areas see the move as a crucial opportunity for lasting peace.
“We hope for peace and stability,” said Erbil resident Serhang Necmettin, calling on both the PKK and Türkiye to pursue dialogue over violence. Similarly, local Turkmen Dilaver Bezirgan described the development as “an important step for coexistence.”
Nihat Cevat added, “If this process brings peace, it will end years of suffering and strengthen regional stability.”
Many in the KRG emphasized that war should no longer be the solution. “We long for peace,” said İbrahim Adnan, urging Türkiye to accelerate its support for the disarmament process.
