Meanwhile, the EU has pledged 30 million euros to help restore water supplies in Kryvyi Rih, severely affected by the destruction of the Kakhovka dam. This aid is crucial for the region's recovery. Adding to the somber atmosphere, foreign diplomats visited a site in Kyiv to pay respects to rescuers who lost their lives. In another development, the ongoing attacks on the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNP) are highlighted, with reports of drone strikes on a training center.
