Watch again as Vladimir Putin hosted a CIS Heads of State Council meeting on Tuesday (8 October).

The meeting came as Russia launched hypersonic missiles at Ukraine, with Kyiv’s military saying it had struck a major oil terminal in occupied Crimea that provides fuel for Putin's war effort.

During the summit, the leaders discussed tasks of the Commonwealth, as well as topical regional and international problems, and outline main areas of work in the future.

Putin also held several bilateral meetings on the sidelines of the summit.
