Meduza cited two officials who described fears of new Ukrainian attacks among Russian officials. Russian officials have died in Ukraine's counteroffensives in the occupied regions, the outlet said. But higher pay does not make up for the risk of Ukrainian attacks, the two unnamed officials told Meduza. An unspecified number of Russian officials, including Alexei Katerinichev, a Russian-installed official in Kherson, have also been killed, per the outlet. Russia's Defense Ministry also announced last month that people in the four occupied regions will be included for the first time in its conscription campaign.

Ukraine is preparing for the possibility of another Russian invasion via Belarus amid military drills. Analysts are skeptical that the exercises are cover for an attack or that Belarus would send its troops to join the war. Belarus has already been used as a launching pad for Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine and has faced sanctions from Western countries as a result. There's also been some speculation that Belarus might send its troops into Ukraine to bolster Russia's war effort, but analysts are skeptical the drills are more than exercises. "The exercise does not appear to be cover for concentrating Belarusian and/or Russian forces near jumping-off positions for an invasion of Ukraine," ISW added.
Ukraine's president said 4.5 million people lost power on Thursday night from Russian attacks. Zelenskyy said Russia was targeting energy because "they cannot defeat Ukraine on the battlefield". Russia has increasingly hit Ukraine's power infrastructure since Ukraine began retaking territory. Zelenskyy said on Thursday night that damage from Russian attacks had left 4.5 million people temporarily disconnected from power supplies.
