Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the arrival of the first batch of U.S.-made M1 Abrams tanks in Ukraine, which will strengthen their actions against Russian occupiers. However, fewer than half of the expected tanks have arrived so far. Meanwhile, a U.N. panel announced that some Ukrainian citizens have been tortured to death under Russian occupation, with reports of brutal torture and sexual violence against women. In the battleground, a town near Kherson was shelled, and Russian forces shot down two Ukrainian drones. Zelensky vowed to retaliate against Russian attacks. In global impact, the Canadian speaker of the House of Commons apologized for praising a 98-year-old Ukrainian man who served in a Nazi military unit, and the United States offered a $2 billion loan to Poland for military modernization. Additionally, Russia added the president of the International Criminal Court to its wanted list.
