Roscosmos conducting repairs on Friday to eliminate air leaks in ISS' Russian segment - NASA

MOSCOW.June 5 (Interfax) - The Roscosmos cosmonauts are conducting repairs in a transfer compartment of the Zvezda module in the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS), prompting the Crew-12 crew to board a Crew Dragon spacecraft for safety reasons, NATO spokesperson Bethany Stevens said on Friday.

"Following new leaks, Roscosmos has elected to proceed with a more extensive repair operation on Friday, June 5," Stevens said on X.

For safety reasons, NASA instructed four members of the SpaceX Crew-12 crew and NASA astronaut Chris Williams to move to the Dragon spaceship while repairs are ongoing, she said.
