  • Ukrainian forces were on Monday reported to be recapturing towns along the west bank of the Dnipro River in southern Ukraine near the city of Kherson.
  • Moscow’s troops have apparently yielded land that Russia claims to have annexed along a second major front after Ukrainian forces took the key logistics hub of Lyman — Kyiv’s most significant battlefield gain in weeks.
  • Kadyrov, the leader of Russia’s southern Chechnya region whose troops are fighting for Moscow, on Saturday called for a change of strategy “right up to the declaration of martial law in the border areas and the use of low-yield nuclear weapons.”
