After scenes of jubilation in the newly liberated city of Kherson in southern Ukraine over the last few days, the hard work — to restore power and water supplies in the region and to clear landmines left by retreating Russian forces — is now beginning.
President Zelenskyy visited Kherson on Monday morning and thanked Ukrainian troops for their service. The president said that 400 war crimes, allegedly carried out by Russian forces during their eight-month occupation of the region, were being investigated.
In other news, Russia's foreign ministry denied a report that Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov had been taken to hospital after arriving in Bali on Sunday for the G-20 summit that's beginning on Tuesday. Indonesian officials suggested he had been taken to hospital for a heart condition. Russia denied this, calling it fake news.
