New explosions struck Sevastopol and smoke was seen rising from a prominent landmark just kilometres away from the Crimean city as Ukrainian forces announced they were carrying out a joint intelligence operation in the region illegally annexed by Russia in 2014. Ukraine has recaptured the eastern village of Klishchiivka on the southern flank of Bakhmut after heavy fighting. It follows the recapture of Andriivka, another village in the region, Kyiv forces are said to be gaining ground. On Sunday they sent drones to disrupt air traffic in Moscow and caused a fire at an oil depot, according to Russian reports. "Klishchiivka was cleared of the Russians and liberated," Alexander Syrskyi, commander of Ukraine's ground forces, said in a post on the Telegram messaging app. It comes as Volodymyr Zelensky spoke out in an interview with CBS saying the conflict is ‘World War I with drones’. He explained the war is fought on a 700-mile front and the red area is the 20% of Ukraine still occupied by Russia where donated tanks should have advanced but they were stopped by Russian trenches, minefields and artillery.

The undated "burn after reading" letter from Brian Laundrie's mother could provide what one legal analyst called the "proverbial smoking gun" in the civil case brought by Gabby Petito's family against his parents. But the note is unlikely to expose his mom to criminal charges, legal experts say.

Ukrainian forces claim to have destroyed a warehouse of military equipment used by Russian occupiers with a drone strike in the Donetsk region. Footage shows the moment of the strike, with smoke rising from the site close to Myronivskyi, a town about 15 miles southeast of Bakhmut. “Around 14:30pm, the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed a warehouse of military equipment of the occupiers near Myronivskyi, Donetsk region,” a social media post from the country’s strategic communications page read. The video was first posted by Serhiy Bratchuk, the spokesman for the Ukrainian Volunteer Army in the south of the country.
