Belarus drills

  • Belarus said its air force drills with Russia that start on Monday are defensive in nature to prepare for possible combat missions.

Dnipro survivors

Fighting

  • NATO said Kyiv can expect more deliveries of heavy weapons from Western countries soon.

  • Germany said Russia’s leaders and forces responsible for war crimes in Ukraine “must be held accountable”.
