  • Russian forces have reportedly been using the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine as a base to launch attacks, raising security concerns in surrounding areas, France 24 reported. The power plant is the largest in Europe and has been under Russian control since March.
  • Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Moscow’s main goal in Ukraine is to oust President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s government, outlining the Kremlin’s war objectives in some of the harshest language yet as its forces bombard the nation with artillery and aircraft, according to the Associated Press.
  • Russia has charged 92 members of Ukraine’s military high command with crimes against humanity, CNN wrote. Moscow has filed more than 1,300 criminal cases against Ukraine’s military and political leadership, Russian officials told state media.
