Russia has bombed the north-eastern city of Kharkiv, killing at least one civilian. One minor also injured.

Besides, at least 18 people, including five children, were injured after a Russian missile attack damaged a college and a kindergarten in the central Ukrainian city of Dnipro.

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed into law a measure lowering the army mobilisation age from 27 to 25. Mobilisation has been a divisive issue in a nation exhausted by more than two years of war with Russia, which has seen huge military losses. But the move comes as Ukraine lacks soldiers to battle the Russian invasion now in its third year.
