North Korea officially entered the war against Ukraine, as reported by multiple outlets with Putin releasing a statement on the matter.

The Ministry of Labor launched a pilot program for shorter working hours, reinforcing labor policy shifts. Meanwhile, a major power outage paralyzed Spain and Portugal, affecting parts of Europe.
