Ukraine Escalates Border Attacks.

Ukrainian forces have intensified their attacks against Russia along the border of Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk provinces. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy discussed preparations for a NATO summit and Ukraine's plan for ending Russia's invasion of Ukraine with British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly. US President Joe Biden hosted talks with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen on support for Ukraine and training Ukrainian pilots on fourth-generation fighter jets. Russian mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin said Ukrainian forces had retaken part of a village near Bakhmut after his Wagner paramilitary group handed its positions there to the regular Russian troops. The European Union restricted Ukrainian grain imports to Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia until September 15.
