Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed a decree sanctioning 178 Russian nationals, including Constitutional Court judges, for five years. The Kakhovka dam was blown up by Russian forces to prevent the Ukrainian offensive in the southern Kherson region, according to Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maliar.
