The day's dominant coverage centered on the conflict in Ukraine, beginning with reports of large-scale Russian missile and drone attacks, characterized as a "record" assault. This continuous aerial bombardment prompted Ukraine to withdraw from the Ottawa Convention, announcing its intention to use anti-personnel mines, explicitly linking the decision to the ongoing Russian invasion. Domestically, the day started with the resolution of a radar fault that had disrupted Northwest air traffic, later attributed to a TIM network issue. As the day progressed, a new infrastructure challenge emerged: widespread train delays, particularly on the Rome-Naples line, causing significant travel disruptions across the national rail network. Other stories included the Budapest Pride parade and proposals to "re-arm" the ILVA steel plant.
