President Zelensky flew to Brussels to present Ukraine's Victory Plan to the European Council. The plan, aimed at ending the war, was discussed amidst reports of continued Russian drone attacks and battles in eastern Ukraine. Zelensky emphasized that the plan's implementation doesn't depend on Russia's willingness. He also addressed concerns about Ukraine's NATO membership, stating it would either join NATO or potentially consider nuclear weapons - a claim he later clarified was not a statement of intent. The day saw discussions on mobilization changes, with debates on lowering the conscription age. Reports emerged of North Korean military involvement in training Russian soldiers. The UK announced new sanctions against Russia's shadow fleet, while the Netherlands pledged additional artillery support for Ukraine.
