A Russian strike on Kharkiv's TV tower is part of an intimidation campaign, Ukraine's Zelenskyy says
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said a Russian missile strike that smashed a television tower in Kharkiv was part of the Kremlin’s ongoing effort to intimidate Ukraine’s second-largest city, which in recent weeks has come under increasingly frequent attack. The strike sought to “make the terror visible to the whole city and to try to limit Kharkiv’s connection and access to information,” Zelenskyy said in his Monday evening address. The northeastern Kharkiv region straddles the about 1,000-kilometer (600-mile) front line where Ukrainian and Russian forces have been locked in battle for more than two years since Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

At least five migrants feared dead trying to cross English Channel
At least five migrants died in an attempt to cross the English Channel from an area near the French town of Wimereux on Tuesday, police said. The French coast guard confirmed a police rescue operation had found several "lifeless bodies" following a failed attempt to cross the Channel. A coast guard spokesperson said its agents were still operating at sea after what the official called a "busy" morning, with several crossing attempts. The attempts took place after Britain's upper house of parliament passed legislation on Monday night that will allow the U.K. government to send asylum-seekers to Rwanda rather than stay in Britain for processing.
