Lithuanian parliamentarians rejected the Kremlin's threats over the possible deployment of nuclear weapons, calling them a tool of psychological pressure. Vilnius emphasizes that NATO membership already makes the country a target of Moscow.

Dmitry Medvedev denied preparations for mobilization in Russia this autumn, calling the rumors a "false provocation by Kyiv" and linking them to the State Duma elections. Meanwhile, mobilization orders are being recorded on the ground.
