A Soyuz-2.1a is readied for launch. Nasa has announced that it will resume flights to the International Space Station with Russia.
This is taking place despite Washington's attempts to isolate Russia over its invasion of Ukraine. AFP
Nasa's announcement came hours Dmitry Rogozin was dismissed as head of Russia's Roscosmos space agency. AFP
A vocal backer of Russia's invasion, Mr Rogozin, had said US astronauts should get to the ISS 'on trampolines' rather than Russian rockets. AFP
Earlier this month, Russia's former Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov was appointed as the new director-general of Roscosmos. AP
