> Rodion Miroshnik, an envoy-at-large for Russia’s Foreign Ministry, said an attempt to evacuate patients needing advanced medical care from besieged Alyoshki in the Kherson Region to a district hospital in Skadovsk failed. After Russian engineers cleared the road, resumed Ukrainian shelling forced the ambulances to turn back.
