Coat of arms

Krasnodar was founded as Yekaterinodar (“Catherine’s Gift”) as a gift to the Kuban Cossacks, having previously been part of Circassian lands. After the Revolution it was renamed Krasnodar (“Red Gift”) to get rid of the imperial connotations. Today the city is still considered the centre of the Kuban Cossacks and is proud of this link, with many related sights. 

It is a major economic and cultural centre in the region and as such has good transport links with other Russian cities. From Krasnodar it is easy to visit the Republic of Adygea and its capital Maikop which is located inside the Krasnodar Territory.

Russia-Ukraine war latest: Children to be evacuated from Russian city; Armenian leader warns another war will break out this week

Around 9,000 children will be moved from the Russian city of Belgorod and from several districts in the region of the same name after deadly Ukrainian attacks, according to the governor. Meanwhile, the Armenia prime minister has claimed Azerbaijan will wage war again over a land dispute.

Any French military units sent to Ukraine would be a "priority" target, Russia's chief of foreign intelligence has said.

"It (a French contingent) will become a priority and legitimate target for attacks by the Russian armed forces," Sergei Naryshkin said, according to TASS news agency.

"This means that the fate of all Frenchmen who have ever come to the territory of the Russian world with a sword would await it."

Last month, French President Emmanuel Macron wouldn't rule out the idea of European troops in Ukraine - although he cautioned "no consensus" has been agreed between allies.

"Nothing should be excluded," he added. "We will do everything that we must so that Russia does not win."

A White House official said the US had no plans to send troops to fight in Ukraine and there were also no plans to send NATO troops.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy has once again appealed to allies for more air defences, as Russia continues to launch airstrikes across the country's eastern regions.

He warned Russia launched 130 missiles, more than 320 attack drones and almost 900 guided bombs just this month.

"We require more protection, specifically a fully realistic number of air defence systems that our partners possess," Mr Zelenskyy said on X.

"Patriots and other systems must do what they were designed for: protect lives, not collect dust in storage."

Foreign military aid has waned as the war has continued, with a major package held up in Washington for months by Republicans in the House of Representatives.

Ukraine's prime minister, Denys Shmyhal, says the country hopes to have enough ammunition to repel Russian troops by April.

It comes as the Russian defence ministry claims its forces have captured the village of Orlivka, in the Donetsk region.

The Ukrainian general staff reported earlier today that its forces had repelled nine Russian army attacks in the vicinity of Orlivka.

Vladimir Putin has been made aware of 13 miners trapped in one of Russia's biggest goldmines, the Kremlin has said, and will make sure every effort is made for their rescue.

The country's ministry of emergency situations said communications are "being restored" after a rock fall at the Pioneer mine in the Amur region, which is in eastern Siberia and borders China.

"Mechanised clearing of the transport slope is being carried out," the ministry said on Telegram.

The mine is owned by the London-listed Russian gold miner Petropavlovsk POG.D, which in 2022 filed for administration after Western sanctions on Gazprombank, its main lender and the sole buyer of its gold, left it struggling to repay debt.

Pictures released by the ministry appear to show rescue operations under way at the site.

Russia claims it has killed two groups of "Ukrainian saboteurs" near the border with the regions of Belgorod and Kursk.

The country's defence ministry says it carried out pre-emptive strikes and, in both cases, the "saboteur groups were destroyed".

This has not been independently verified.

The Belgorod region has been the target of attacks over the course of the war, with the local governor Vyacheslav Gladkov claiming yesterday four people were killed when their home in the village of Nikolskoye was hit. 

Mr Gladkov said today around 9,000 children will be evacuated from the city of Belgorod and from several districts in the wider region.

Meanwhile Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the Ukrainian president, says Russia has launched 130 missiles of various types, more than 320 Shahed attack drones and almost 900 guided bombs in attacks on Ukraine this month.

The EU's foreign policy chief says he will propose using 90% of revenues from Russian assets frozen in Europe to buy arms for Ukraine.

Josep Borrell said he will submit a proposal to other EU states tomorrow, one day before a summit of the bloc's leaders.

"The concrete proposal will be tabled tomorrow," he said. "This is for member states to agree."

A senior EU official said last week Russian assets frozen in the EU are likely to generate between €15bn (£12.8bn) and €20bn (£17bn) in after-tax profits until 2027.

Mr Borrell, who said the idea is to use profits from assets rather than the assets themselves, said this could yield some €3bn annually.

The remaining 10% could go towards boosting the Ukrainian defence industry, he added.

Most of the Russian assets seized in the West are held in the Belgian central securities depository Euroclear, which has the equivalent of €190bn (£162.4bn) worth of Russian central bank securities and cash.

Russia has been accused of "political propaganda" for organising so-called Summer Friendship Games in the country.

The event, which has not been sanctioned by world bodies, is believed to be planned for September 2024, with a winter version in 2026.

Russia said last year it planned to relaunch the multisport Friendship Games in 2024, 40 years after its first edition.

"It is a cynical attempt by the Russian Federation to politicise sport," the International Olympic Committee said today.

"The commission even sees the risk of athletes being forced by their governments into participating in such a fully politicised sports event, thereby being exploited as part of a political propaganda campaign."

The IOC added that Russia has launched a "very intensive diplomatic offensive" by approaching governments around the world.

They are "deliberately circumventing the sports organisations in their target countries" in a "blatant violation" of the Olympic charter and an "infringement of various UN resolutions".

'Total disrespect'

Russia also shows "total disrespect" for global anti-doping standards, with the World Anti-Doping Agency last week expressing concern these events could go ahead without their "protection".

"The Olympic movement strongly condemns any initiative to fully politicise sport, in particular the establishment of fully politicised sports events by the Russian government," the IOC said.

The IOC, which in October suspended Russia for recognising organisations from four territories annexed from Ukraine, has already said athletes who support the war in Ukraine would not be welcome at the Olympics this summer.

It means individual Russian and Belarusian athletes will be allowed to compete, but only as neutrals.

More now on reports the EU is preparing to levy tariffs on food from Russia and Belarus.

According to the Financial Times, the European Commission is expected to soon impose a duty of £81 a tonne on cereals from Russia and Belarus - see our 7.51am post.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow had seen the report, but that the time frame and other details needed to be clear before Russia decides on its response.

The tariffs would apply to grains destined for use in the EU and would not affect the transit of grains through the bloc to other countries, sources said.

Total EU imports of grain and oilseed in 2023/24 from Russia stood at 1.8 million metric tonnes by the end of February - far less than the 19.1 million tonnes from Ukraine.

The move comes as farmers in Poland, Hungary and Slovakia, all of which are members of the EU, call for changes to restrictions placed on them by the EU's Green Deal plan to tackle climate change.

They are also calling for the re-imposition of customs duties on imports of agricultural products from Ukraine after an EU decision in 2022 to waive duties on Ukrainian food imports, which farmers in the EU argue undercut their prices.

Donald Tusk, the Polish prime minister, has also called for an EU ban on imports of Russian and Belarusian agricultural products.

Russia has reportedly appointed a new acting chief of the navy, after their dominance of the Black Sea was repeatedly challenged in Ukainian attacks.

Admiral Alexander Moiseev will replace Nikolai Yevmenov, state RIA news agency reports.

It follows days of speculation, which the Kremlin has not commented on.

A decorated commander and submariner, Mr Moiseev was awarded the Order of Courage for his participation in an operation in the North Pole in 1994.

In 2011, he was made a Hero of Russia, the country's highest honorary title.

He has previous experience of the Black Sea, having been appointed acting commander and then commander of the fleet there.

Ukraine's long-range missile attacks have at times caused havoc for the Russian fleet in the Black Sea.

Such attacks have forced parts of the Russian fleet to retreat towards the Russian mainland. 

Yulia Navalnaya, the widow of late Putin opponent Alexei Navalny, said today the president is not the legitimate leader of Russia.

The official results of the election, which have been widely criticised as neither fair nor free, had no meaning, she added.

"We proved to ourselves and others that Putin is not our president," she said, referring to the Noon Against Putin protests held on the last day of the election on Sunday.

"We did not elect him."

Thousands gathered in Red Square in Moscow yesterday to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the annexation of Crimea as well as Mr Putin's inevitable election victory.

People there appeared to mirror lines that typically come from the Kremlin, toasting that they are "united" because "those who are not needed left, and those who are needed stayed".

Others said Russia is flourishing and is regaining what they gave way long ago.

But our  international correspondent Diana Magnay said civil society is "not dead altogether" - as was seen in the hundreds who laid flowers for Mr Navalny, who died suddenly in prison last month.

"There are people who don't feel the same as those on Red Square," she said.

"It's just those voices are difficult to hear."

Moldova has expelled a Russian diplomat over the opening of polling stations in the breakaway Moldovan region of Transnistria, a pro-Russian enclave that split from the country after the Soviet Union's collapse.

Chisinau protested against the voting stations, opened for the presidential election inevitably won by Vladimir Putin, and criticised the move as disrespectful to Moldova's sovereignty.

The Russian ambassador to Moldova dismissed those complaints as "unfounded" and said the polling station were needed to ensure Russian citizens could participate in the elections.

Today, Moldova's foreign ministry announced it is expelling a diplomat after summoning the Russian ambassador.

It comes in the week Moldova's president, Maia Sandu, kicked off a push to join the EU, with a referendum expected later this year.

Having applied for EU membership in 2022, Moldova received a draft framework for accession negotiations in March, along with neighbouring Ukraine.

Explosion heard in Russian city of Krasnodar

From CNN's Josh Pennington and Hira Humayun

An explosion was heard in the Russian city of Krasnodar on Friday.

An explosion was heard in the Russian city of Krasnodar on Friday morning, state news agencies Tass and RIA Novosti reported.

Citing the operational headquarters of Krasnodar territory, the news agencies said the roof and windows of a building on Morskaya Street had been damaged. No casualties have been reported so far.

Social media videos geolocated by CNN to Morskaya Street show what appears to be an unmanned aerial vehicle in the sky, followed by the sound of an explosion. Other social media images show smoke rising from the building, and another image shows the building damaged.

"According to information coming to the city's emergency call center, at 04:17 a.m. in the city of Krasnodar, an explosion was heard in the area of a building on Morskaya Street, 54/2," Tass said.

"Emergency services were sent to the scene. No casualties have been reported. There was damage to the building's roof and windows, but no fire," the report said.

Iran has a direct route to send Russia weapons – and Western powers can do little to stop it

From CNN's Lauren Kent and Salma Abdelaziz

The waters of the Caspian Sea appear deceptively calm. But this sea route – which provides a direct path between Iran and Russia – is increasingly busy with cargo traffic, including suspected  weapons transfers  from Tehran to Moscow.

As cooperation between the two countries deepens, the Caspian Sea route is being used to move drones, bullets, and mortar shells that the Russian government has purchased from the Iranian regime to bolster its war effort in Ukraine, according to experts. Tracking data shows that vessels in the region are increasingly going “dark” – suggesting growing intent to obfuscate the movement of goods.

Last year, data from Lloyd’s List Intelligence revealed a September spike in the number of gaps in vessels tracking data in the Caspian. That’s shortly after the United States and Ukrainian governments say  Moscow acquired drones  from Tehran last summer. Russia’s use of Iranian drones  increased in the fall , including against critical energy infrastructure in Ukraine.

And analysts say that Ukraine’s Western allies would have little power to stop such arms deliveries.

“There is no risk to Iranian exports in the Caspian Sea because of the bordering countries – they don’t have the capability or motive to interdict in these sorts of exchanges,” said Martin Kelly, lead intelligence analyst at security company EOS Risk Group.

Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan, all former Soviet republics, are the other nations with ports on the Caspian Sea.

It’s a “perfect environment for this trade to go unopposed,” Kelly added.

"Get out": Influx of Russians to Georgia stokes old enmities

From CNN's Christian Edwards

Mother of Georgia statue in Tbilisi.

Above Tbilisi’s Old Town stands the Mother of Georgia statue, like a less imposing Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro. “Kartlis Deda,” as she is known to Georgians, holds a wine cup in her left hand and a sword in her right. She offers a choice to new arrivals. Come as a friend, you are our guest. Come as an enemy, you are not welcome.

Tbilisi, an ancient Silk Road city, is no stranger to foreigners turning up on its streets. But the arrival of more than 100,000 Russians in the country since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine last year has left Georgians uncertain whether to welcome them as friends or shun them as foes.

The government’s recent attempt to  force through  what critics see as a Kremlin-style “foreign agent” law, and the  huge protests  which prevented this, have not helped émigrés to settle in or locals to feel at ease alongside the new arrivals.

Many in Georgia fear what they see as the creeping Russification of their country – a story they know all too well.

On the streets of Tbilisi, the reception for Russian émigrés has also been mixed. “It’s a whole range of attitudes,” said Ivan, a 20-something IT consultant from a city in Russia’s far east. CNN is withholding Ivan’s real name, to protect him from retribution should he ever return to Russia.

Some Georgians are “warm and welcoming” and treat Russians as their “brothers,” Ivan told CNN. Others tell them to “get out.” The key difference is age, he has found.

Wagner clashes in and around Bakhmut are decreasing. Here's what else you need to know

From CNN staff

An aerial image shows destruction in the frontline town of Bakhmut, Ukraine,  in this handout picture released on May 21.

The Russian reconnaissance ship Ivan Khurs was seemingly hit by an unmanned surface vessel in the Black Sea, new video shows, disputing Moscow's claim it had  been able to thwart a Ukrainian attack  on the craft.

Footage shared by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense on social media Thursday and analyzed by CNN appeared to show the moments just before the impact. 

Here are other headlines you should know:

Bakhmut developments: Ukraine's number of clashes with Wagner mercenaries in and around Bakhmut has been decreasing over the past few days, according to the spokesperson for the eastern grouping of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Meanwhile, more than 100 Ukrainians who fought in the Bakhmut area and were captured by Russian troops have been released in a prisoner swap, the head of Ukraine’s presidential office said Thursday. And the head of Wagner, Yevgeny Prigozhin, told CNN he has handed over to Ukrainian authorities the body of a retired US Army Special Forces soldier who died fighting for Bakhmut.

Elsewhere in Ukraine: Russian officials in the occupied southern city of Berdiansk said Ukrainian forces have struck the city with a missile . A member of Russia's local administration in Zaporizhzhia said he still did not have information on casualties, adding that response teams were on site. And in the eastern Donetsk region, an official has accused Russian forces of destroying a dam and endangering nearby residents.

Military equipment: Finland on Thursday pledged to send additional military equipment to Ukraine. Meanwhile, the  transfer of some tactical nuclear weapons  from Russia to Belarus has begun, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko said Thursday, according to state news agency BelTA.

Tariff and quota suspension: European trade ministers agreed to  extend the temporary measures  that suspend customs duties and quotas on Ukrainian imports to the European Union for another year, until June 2024 . The temporary easing of trade regulations between Ukraine and the EU went into force in June 2022.

Foreign fighters on trial: Five foreigners who fought for Ukraine are to stand trial in absentia in Russia, according to state media. The group all fought for Ukraine in the defense of the southern city of Mariupol. 

US does not support attacks on Russian soil and has "made it very clear" to Ukraine, White House official says

From CNN's DJ Judd

White House National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby appears on CNN on Thursday, May 25.

US President Joe Biden's administration has reiterated in conversations with Ukraine that it does not support attacks on Russian soil, White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby told CNN Thursday.

“We have again made it very clear to the Ukrainians what our expectations are about attacking Russia — we don't want to encourage or enable that, we certainly don't want any US-made equipment used to attack Russian soil,” Kirby told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.

“And we have gotten assurances from the Ukrainians that they will respect those wishes … we have been very clear that we want Ukraine to be able to defend its own soil, its own territory. They have been attacked. They have been invaded. They have a right to defend themselves," he continued. "But, we've also been clear, well, that we don't want to see this war escalate beyond this, the devastation and the violence that is already visited on the Ukrainian people.” 

The conversations with Ukraine didn’t involve “outlining consequences” but were “simply a reaffirmation," Kirby told CNN. He added that these discussions have happened "as recently as over just the last day or so."

Some context: Kirby's comments come on the heels of a CNN report that anti-Putin Russian fighters, fighting alongside Ukrainian armed forces, conducted a raid inside Russian territory. 

In an interview with CNN’s Sam Kiley, one of the Russian nationals said the raid was conducted using American-manufactured equipment purchased on the open market. Kirby said Thursday that he could not confirm that.

He instead said the US is providing equipment "to be used to defend Ukrainian soil."

Russian reconnaissance ship seemingly hit by unmanned surface vessel, video shows

From CNN’s Vasco Cotovio and Yulia Kesaieva in Kyiv, and Sharon Braithwaite and Gianluca Mezzofiore in London

Footage shared by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense on Thursday appeared to show the moments just before the unmanned vessel made an impact with the Russian reconnaissance ship, Ivan Khurs.

The Russian reconnaissance ship Ivan Khurs was seemingly hit by an unmanned surface vessel in the Black Sea, new video shows, disputing a claim by Moscow, which said on Wednesday it had been able to thwart a Ukrainian attack on the craft.

The video is filmed from a camera placed on the surface vessel. It shows the vessel as it approaches a larger ship at high speed.  

CNN analysis determined the ship is likely to be the Ivan Khurs. It also shows the tip of the unmanned surface vessel, similar to the unmanned surface vessels seen in video posted by the Russian Ministry of Defense on Thursday.

The feed cuts as the vessel comes within a few yards of  the ship. 

"When the Russian reconnaissance ship 'Ivan Khurs' met a Ukrainian drone," the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense said in a tweet . "Indeed, a perfect match!"

More background: On Wednesday, the Russian defense ministry acknowledged the attack on the Ivan Khurs but said all the surface vessels had failed to hit the ship. 

"Today at 5:30 a.m., the armed forces of Ukraine made an unsuccessful attempt to attack the Ivan Khurs ship of the Black Sea Fleet with three unmanned speedboats," said the spokesperson for the Russian Ministry of Defense, Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov. "All enemy boats were destroyed by fire from the standard armament of a Russian ship 140 kilometers northeast of the Bosphorus."

The Russian Ministry of Defense also shared footage that appears to show one of the surface vessels exploding as it is hit by gunfire. 

"The ship ‘Ivan Khurs’ of the Black Sea Fleet continues to fulfill its tasks," Konashenkov added. 

It is unclear what happened after the surface vessel seemingly hit the Ivan Khurs and how damaged the reconnaissance ship may have been during the attack.

CNN has reached out to Ukrainian sources for additional details but has yet to hear back. 

Wagner chief claims to have handed over body of US Army veteran killed in Bakhmut

From CNN’s Clare Sebastian, Allegra Goodwin, Svitlana Vlasova and Sarah Dean

Army Staff Sgt. Nicholas Maimer, left, who was identified as the American citizen killed by Russian artillery in the embattled city of Bakhmut, is pictured with Senator James Risch.

The head of the Russian paramilitary company Yevgeny Prigozhin told CNN Thursday that he has handed the body of a retired US Army Special Forces soldier who was killed in the battle for the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut over to Ukraine. 

In a response to CNN asking if Wagner had returned the body of Retired Army Staff Sgt. Nicholas Maimer as promised by Prigozhin last week, Prigozhin said in an audio recording: “Today at 1500 hours we handed over the body of the American Nicholas Maimer to the Ukrainian side.” 

In a video shared with CNN by Prigozhin’s press service, the Wagner boss stands next to two coffins, one draped with an American flag and one with a Turkish flag, and says: “The American died in battle in the 'nest'” — one of the last contested areas in west Bakhmut — and added that the second coffin contained the body of a Turkish citizen who was in Bakhmut with his female partner. 

“They were found under the ruins of a building, or more accurately he and his documents. When the Ukrainians withdrew they blew up the building, and they died under the destroyed building. We weren’t able to get her out, but we got him out and will return to his motherland,” Prigozhin says of the Turkish citizens.

CNN cannot independently verify the location in the video or the date it was filmed. 

Ukraine’s Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War confirmed to CNN that Maimer’s body, along with the body of a Turkish citizen, had been returned to Ukraine on Thursday during a POW exchange . A video shared by the group showed a coffin covered with an American flag which matched the coffin seen in the video with Prigozhin. 

CNN is unable to independently confirm that the coffin contains Maimer’s body, or the circumstances in which he died.

Maimer's decades in uniform: According to Maimer’s service record provided to CNN, he served more than 20 years in uniform before retiring in 2018, according to his service record provided to CNN.

He served more than two years in the active-duty Army, leaving in December 1998; he then joined the National Guard in November 2000, and served about 18 years between three different Guard units before retiring in December 2018.

Among his awards and decorations are the Special Forces Tab, Army Commendation Medal and four Army Achievement Medals.

His uncle Paul Maimer told the Idaho Statesman his nephew had gone to Ukraine “as a humanitarian trying to do good for this world” and that the family wanted to bring him home for a “proper burial.”

“I think he’s deserving to be put to rest in a veterans cemetery,” he told the Statesman. “He might not have been fighting for our country, but he was fighting for the right reasons.”

CNN's Josh Pennington, Sandi Sidhu, Jennifer Hansler, Haley Britzky and Alex Marquardt contributed to this post.

Russia's transfer of tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus has begun, Lukashenko says

From CNN’s Uliana Pavlova

Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko attends a meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council at the Grand Kremlin Palace in Moscow on Thursday.

The transfer of some tactical nuclear weapons from Russia to Belarus has begun, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko said Thursday, according to state news agency BelTA.

"It was necessary to prepare storage sites, and so on. We did all this. Therefore, the movement of nuclear weapons began," Lukashenko said.

Lukashenko also promised the safety of tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, saying: “Don’t worry about nuclear weapons. We are responsible for this. These are serious issues. Everything will be all right here.”

Some background:  This comes after Moscow and Minsk signed an agreement on deploying tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, one of Russia's neighbors and most loyal allies. Lukashenko  raised the possibility  of Russia placing strategic nuclear weapons in Belarus during a national address in March, while baselessly accusing Western countries of “preparing to invade” Belarus and “destroy” it.

Finland will send additional military equipment to Ukraine, defense ministry says 

From CNN's Sarah Diab in London

Finland on Thursday pledged to send additional military equipment to Ukraine.

Finland’s 16th defense package to Ukraine will include anti-aircraft weapons and ammunition and will be worth 109 million euros (about $117 million), a Finnish defense ministry spokesperson told CNN.

That brings the total defense aid from Finland to Ukraine since Russian invasion began last year to 1.1 billion euros (about $1.18 billion).

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky thanked the Finnish government for the aid in a tweet:
