Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has confirmed that the traditional May 9 reception for foreign and honorary guests of the Victory Day celebrations in Moscow will proceed in its customary format, even as this year's military parade and related events have been somewhat modified. The reception is scheduled for heads of state and delegations invited to the military parade, Peskov said at a briefing, as reported by TASS.

The second, dated May 8, addresses the reception's format. Both reports quote Kremlin spokespersons directly and present the information without critical commentary.

AI-extracted; can misattribute a claim — see Methodology.
Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
