		</div><p>Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has met Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg and prominent European figures who are forming a working group to address ecological damage from the Russian invasion.</p>
<p>The meeting in the Ukrainian capital came as fighting continued around the country.</p>
<p>The governor of the Kherson region, Oleksandr Prokudin, said two people were killed in the region’s capital in a Russian strike that hit residences, a medical facility and a school where residents were lined up to receive humanitarian aid.</p>
<p>Another person was killed in a morning strike on the village of Bilzoerka, the regional prosecutor’s office said.</p>
<p>The presidential office said on Thursday morning that at least eight civilians died in Russian attacks during the previous 24 hours.</p>
<p>The working group on the environment includes Ms Thunberg, former Swedish deputy prime minister Margot Wallstrom, European Parliament vice president Heidi Hautala, and former Irish president Mary Robinson.</p>
<p>Mr Zelensky said forming the group is “a very important signal of supporting Ukraine. It’s really important, we need your professional help”.</p>
<p>Ms Thunberg said Russian forces “are deliberately targeting the environment and people’s livelihoods and homes. And therefore also destroying lives. Because this is after all a matter of people”.</p>

<p>The objectives of the working group are evaluating the environmental damage resulting from the war, formulating mechanisms to hold Russia accountable, and undertaking efforts to restore Ukraine’s ecology.</p>
<p>In Moscow, the head of the Russian Orthodox Church Patriarch Kirill met Cardinal Matteo Zuppi, the Vatican envoy for seeking peace between Russia and Ukraine.</p>
<p>Mr Kirill, a supporter of the war, said: “It is very important that the Christian communities of East and West take part in the process of reconciliation,” according to video circulated by the Russian church.</p>
