Russian war correspondent Ivan Zuyev has been killed by a Ukrainian drone strike while on assignment on the front line of the war in southern Ukraine's Zaporizhia region, his publication, state news agency RIA said. Zuyev's colleague, Yuri Voitkevich, was seriously wounded in the attack. Russia launched a large armoured assault with more than 20 armoured vehicles near the eastern Ukrainian town of Dobropillia, Ukraine's Azov brigade said, adding that its forces repelled the attack.

Russia's President Vladimir Putin said his forces are prevailing in what he described as a righteous battle in Ukraine. Our fighters and commanders go on the attack, and the entire country, all of Russia, is waging this righteous battle and working hard, he said. President Putin signed a decree ordering the conscription of 135,000 men for military service, the official government newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta reports.

"Unfortunately, the Russians' style is typical in their attacks,"
