The head of the Russian occupation of Ukraine's Donetsk region, Denis Pushilin, visits Bakhmut. Two men are sentenced to 19 years in prison for throwing Molotov cocktails at a town hall.

The men were convicted by a military court in Yekaterinburg for "act of terrorism" in an organized gang. The two men are the first to be sentenced for the attack on an official building since the start of the Ukraine conflict in March. The Russian military says it has killed more than 1,000 people in the conflict.
