Description:
------------
You can follow this link to see the current issue that is relevant on all version of php (even in 7.0.x or 7.1.0-RC6):

https://3v4l.org/GZlSs

The fact is that given the Timezone, the parsing can fail on different dates. The following code is used by Symfony Framework in a data transformer (DateTimeToLocalizedStringTransformer) that is used to parse date enter in Date and DateTime fields.

This might be an upstream issue.  Have you file a bug report there?

Actually, this is not a bug.  The dates that failed to parse are
dates on which a DST shift happened for Europe/Malta, and the
clock was forwarded from 00:00 to 01:00, so 00:00 doesn't exist.
Use lenient mode if you have to process such dates.
