• Ukraine’s president urges global leaders at the UN General Assembly to stand with his country and not seek “an out” instead of a “real, just peace”.
• Russia’s Defence Ministry says its forces took control of the villages of Hostre and Hryhorivka in Ukraine’s eastern Donetsk region.
• Russia’s President Vladimir Putin will chair a meeting of the Russian Security Council on nuclear deterrence, the Kremlin says, as Moscow weighs how to respond to Ukraine’s requests to Western countries to allow it to strike deep into Russia with long-range Western missiles.
• The Kremlin has called a plan by Zelenskyy to force Russia to make peace a “fatal mistake” that would have consequences for Kyiv.
