British defence publication Janes, citing multiple Indonesian government sources, reported that the Indonesian government has received an official request from Russia to allow Russian military aircraft to be stationed at the Frans Kaisiepo Airport in the West Papua state of Indonesia.

Australian Prime Minister Antony Albanese responded by saying that Australia is seeking further clarification but maintained that Australia has a good relationship with Indonesia.

Australian opposition Leader Peter Dutton called Putin a "murderous dictator" and said that "we've seen women and children who have died in Ukraine as a result of the decisions of Vladimir Putin."
