Ukrainian forces shot down a Russian warplane in the Donetsk region on Saturday, marking a significant development in the ongoing conflict. This incident occurred amid a Russian air attack on Kyiv, which Ukraine's military worked to repel. In a separate incident, a car bomb killed a Russian-controlled nuclear power plant employee in Enerhodar. Ukrainian military intelligence labeled the victim, Andrei Korotkiy, a "war criminal" and collaborator. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will present a "victory plan" to allies at the US Ramstein Air Base in Germany on 12 October. This plan aims to outline steps for ending the war with Russia.
