In Ukraine, President Zelenskiy has celebrated his country's recent military gains by visiting the liberated city of Izyum. Russia has again responded by attacking civilian infrastructure with a missile attack on a dam on the central region of the country. 

Russia's focus on Ukraine may be having an impact on Moscow's sphere of influence in central Asia. Ongoing rivalries between former soviet states have flared up with armed border clashes.
