Russian attacks have struck gas stations across Kyiv, with Ukrainian authorities saying the strikes are meant to intimidate civilians by targeting fuel stations that have become essential for people during the war.
Ukraine, meanwhile, has stepped up attacks on Russian logistics centers and energy facilities in Crimea, a strategy Kyiv hopes will shape the war's outcome and one that could disrupt local supplies.
In a separate development, India's Supreme Court has directed the Ministry of External Affairs to appoint a nodal officer to handle DNA testing of Indians killed in the Russia-Ukraine war. The court ordered that the officer facilitate the identification of mortal remains and ensure that families receive legal aid for compensation claims.
