Ukraine has significantly ramped up its mobilization efforts, with the Cabinet of Ministers ordering the tax service to transfer data on all male citizens aged 18 to 60 to the Ministry of Defense. This move comes as the Prosecutor General's office reports over 1500 individuals illegally removed from military records in the Zakarpattia region, leading to the detention of former officials from the Mukachevo Territorial Recruitment Center.
Domestically, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced the dismissal of an official responsible for an "absolutely shameful situation" in Marhanets, where residents have been without water for several days. Meanwhile, a Russian drone attack on a market in the Sumy region injured 10 people.
In military developments, Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) claimed the destruction of a Russian Pantsir-S1 air defense system in occupied Crimea. Reports also indicate strikes on the Gvardiyskoye airfield, a known launch site for Russian Shahed drones.
