[Korrespondent] 21:43 Biden does not rule out lifting the ban on strikes against Russia with American long-range weapons, Blinken said in an interview with Sky News: "We never rule it out. But when we make a decision, we want to make sure that it is done in a way that can help achieve what the Ukrainians are trying to achieve."
21:36 Belgorod Region Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov announced fighting on the border with Ukraine in the area of Zhuravlevka. At the same time, he denied information about the capture of this settlement by Ukrainian troops.
20:56 The US Treasury Department announced the introduction of new sanctions against Iran due to the supply of missiles to Russia. In particular, the restrictions affected the airline Iran Air, as well as four ships that transport Iranian drones and missiles to Russia. Officials of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Iranian Ministry of Defense were also subject to sanctions. In total, the list includes ten individuals and six legal entities.
20:48 Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga held a telephone conversation with his Australian counterpart Penny Wong and asked her to transfer decommissioned equipment, including Bushmaster armored vehicles, to Ukraine.
20:17 Zelensky said in an evening video address that Ukraine is "bringing closer the steps of partners that can help now... The partners' determination must become more long-range." Work on logistics is also continuing - the timely delivery of the announced support packages. In addition, the president said that he heard reports from Syrsky today, as well as the Main Intelligence Directorate and the Foreign Intelligence Service: "We see what steps Moscow is planning, and we will act accordingly - exactly as tough as necessary."
Zelensky also commented on the changes in the Foreign Ministry: "Ukraine must be fully understood in all partner countries, particularly in Europe. Ukraine needs much more meaningful relations and cooperation than it has now with the countries of Latin America, with the countries of Africa and Asia. We must realize the full potential of strategic relations with the United States. And with all the countries that are key to their regions, but do not yet have strategic relations with Ukraine, we need a truly strategic level of cooperation... Among the key priorities of the year is the Second Peace Summit, which means the most active work with all our partners in groups on the points of the Peace Formula and on a common view of ending the war."
18:54 During his visit to Kyiv, Blinken plans to get acquainted with the situation on the battlefield, discuss Ukraine's needs and advance Zelensky's peace proposals, White House adviser John Kirby said. At the same time, he stressed that Washington is not pressuring Ukraine or pushing it to negotiate an end to the war: "Of course, ending the war through negotiations is the most likely outcome in this case. But when this happens, and under what conditions and circumstances - this will be decided by President Zelensky."
18:35 China is now supplying Russia not only with dual-use goods, but also with specific materials needed by the Russian Armed Forces, said US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell. In exchange, Beijing, according to his information, is receiving secret Russian technologies for submarines, missiles and aviation, which Moscow had previously been unwilling to share.
"These are part of a very significant effort on the part of China to support, build and diversify various elements of the Russian military machine. We see efforts at the highest levels of both governments to try to hide and protect certain elements of this troubling cooperation... Much of this activity is not publicly visible," Campbell said.
18:19 Zelensky said during the introduction of the new Minister Andriy Sybiha to the MFA staff that Ukraine needs a second Peace Summit this year: "This means maximum involvement of the world in the implementation of the Peace Formula. And maximum strengthening of our positions in order to make a fair process of restoring peace real... The team of the MFA of Ukraine, the entire government team, the Office team, our parliamentary diplomats, everyone involved in this work at the public level - everyone must understand that peace for Ukraine and a fair end to this war are not just a historical mission, but daily and very painstaking work."
The President also announced that Panama had joined the communiqué of the first Peace Summit, becoming the 94th signatory of the document.
17:56 The Hill journalist Juliegrace Brufke reported, citing the head of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee Michael McCaul, that Blinken and his British counterpart Lemmy will announce permission to use ATACMS missiles to strike Russia during their visit to Kiev.
17:47 The foreign ministers of Great Britain, Germany and France in a joint statement condemned Iran's supply of ballistic missiles to Russia and added that in response they would cancel air traffic with Iran and impose sanctions on Iranian ballistic missile manufacturers and their suppliers to Russia. The statement said that the supply of missiles to Moscow "is an escalation by both Iran and Russia and poses a direct threat to European security."
17:35 Financing one military costs the budget 1.2 million hryvnia, Shmyhal said. According to him, this year's budget lacks an additional 500 billion hryvnia for the army. "When we planned the 2024 budget together with the IMF, one of the partners' forecasts was that the war would continue until the summer of 2024," the prime minister explained, adding that now the Ukrainian Armed Forces need more funding.
17:21 The UK government announced sanctions against the Russian Aerospace Forces, as well as the 924th State Unmanned Aviation Center and the Military Transport Aviation Command. It is known that the 924th State Unmanned Aviation Center is responsible for delivering UAVs to the Russian army. In addition, London added five new vessel specifications to the list as part of restrictions against Russia and seven new sanctioned entities as part of the sanctions regime against Iran.
16:35 In Pokrovsk, Donetsk region, as a result of enemy shelling, a gas distribution station was damaged, 28 thousand subscribers of the community were left without gas supply, the city military administration reported. In addition, as a result of Russian shelling of the village of Gnatovka, one person was killed and one was wounded.
15:52 US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and British Foreign Secretary David Lemmy will visit Kiev this week. Lemmy announced this at their joint press conference in London.
15:45 Biden plans to discuss with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Friday, September 13, permission for Ukraine to use long-range weapons on Russian territory, Blinken said.
15:36 All thermal power plants that supplied Kharkiv have been destroyed, so mobile boiler houses will be brought into the city for the winter, Shmyhal said. "We are focusing on Kharkiv and the Kharkiv region, because we understand that the Russians have actually destroyed all the thermal power plants that were around Kharkiv and held Kharkiv. We are bringing in small mobile boiler houses there, 1 MW, installed by local authorities," the prime minister said. Similar technologies will be used in other cities, he added.
15:23 US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced new sanctions against Iran over missile deliveries to Russia. According to him, the full list of sanctions will be announced later today, but they will definitely include measures against Iran Air. "We have warned Tehran publicly, we have warned Tehran privately that this step would be a dangerous escalation. Russia has already received shipments of these missiles," Blinken said. He added that Russia will likely use these supplies within a few weeks.
14:37 In the first eight months of this year, weapons production in Ukraine has doubled compared to last year’s figures, Shmyhal reported.
13:48 The order to strike Okhmatdet was given by the then commander of the long-range aviation of the Russian Air Force, who was subsequently promoted to commander of the Air Force, said Prosecutor General Andrei Kostin. The Prosecutor General did not name the person, but from the description it follows that he is Lieutenant General Sergei Kobylash. He was notified of the suspicion in absentia.
13:14 International Criminal Court Prosecutor Karim Khan is on a visit to Kiev and has already visited the Okhmatdet children's hospital and spoken to one of the victims of the Russian strike. Commenting on Mongolia's refusal to arrest Putin, Khan noted that usually in such cases a general meeting of all states signatories to the Rome Statute is held, after which a decision is made. In turn, Prosecutor General Andrei Kostin said that Ukraine is working with partners to ensure that the country that ignored the ICC's demand "feels the consequences."
12:53 Russian troops attacked Kherson with drones, two people were wounded, OVA reported. In particular, the enemy dropped explosives on a bus stop. In addition, two residents of the region, who were injured due to Russian shelling the day before, went to the hospital today.
11:48 The White House has sent Congress a classified report on its strategy for the war in Ukraine, Reuters reports, citing sources. The report's preparation by June was put forward by Congress as a condition for the adoption of a $61 billion aid bill for Ukraine in April. Due to the missed deadlines, some lawmakers said they could block further funding. A congressional aide anonymously said the report was received on Monday, September 9, and they had not yet had a chance to review it.
11:16 Bild writes that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are critically short of spare parts for Western equipment, which is why the army cannot use, in particular, howitzers supplied by the Netherlands, Germany and Italy.
10:39 The UN does not have the tools or authority to force Russia to comply with international law, said UN General Assembly President Dennis Francis. He explained that the Organization acts in accordance with shared values and beliefs, hoping that all members will adhere to their obligations and respect the territorial integrity of other countries.
Francis noted that the UN continues to "hope and expect" that Moscow will fulfill its obligations within the framework of participation in the Organization. He also noted that the General Assembly adopted a number of "strong resolutions" calling on the Russian Federation to comply with the law and withdraw its troops from the territory of Ukraine. "This aggression by Russia is a gross violation of international law, and we cannot tolerate it," Francis emphasized.
09:45 In the morning, Russian troops attacked Ponyatovka in the Kherson region from a UAV - a regular bus was damaged, one person was injured, the OVA reported. Over the previous day, five people were injured as a result of Russian shelling in the region.

Restrictions on the receipt and departure of aircraft were also introduced at Vnukovo and Domodedovo airports.

00:12 The Netherlands is allowing Ukraine to use its weapons to strike deep into Russia's rear, said the country's Defense Minister Ruben Brekelmans. He also called on other countries to lift restrictions: "Ukraine has the right to self-defense. And if the country is attacked from border areas or from Russian airfields, it can target military facilities. The same applies to enemy missiles - they can also be intercepted by our weapons over Russia." The minister specified that permission to strike Russia directly concerns the F-16 fighters that the Netherlands will transfer to Ukraine.
