Residents of Vovchansk are evacuated from the city en masse due to the threat of a reoccupation of the city.

Details: Radio Liberty emphasises that the city is being bombarded "continuously" by Russian troops.

During the evacuation, an FPV drone fell near rescue workers and journalists.

Quote: "People in Vovchansk are already under Russian occupation, and they don't want it…

They are attempting to flee not only because of the bombardment, but also because they are afraid of being under occupation."

Previously: Emergency workers rescued two men from the rubble left behind by a Russian strike in Vovchansk on the morning of 12 May. A woman was killed in the attack.

FCC officially votes to reinstate net neutrality
The Federal Communications Commission made its official vote Thursday to reinstate net neutrality, which bars broadband providers from slowing or even blocking internet traffic to some sites while improving access to others that pay extra fees. With some changes and protections, passing the order titled Safeguarding and Securing the Open Internet restores rules passed back during the Obama administration in 2015 and rolled back in 2017, after Donald Trump was elected president. Since the FCC announced in September that it would be pursuing this as a policy goal, it was more or less a fait accompli; there was no real reason why the Commission, split 3-2 in favor of the Democrats, would vote against it.
