Counting / Summing Dates (in Google Sheets)

I want to count how many events occur on which days of the week.

The data below would create the following result;

Mon=1
Tue=0
Wed=0
Thu=1
Fri=1
Sat=0
Sun=0

Is it possible to retrieve this data from the formatted text result. The data in the cells are 16/03/2026, 19/03/2026, 20/03/2026. The date column is column A.

Failing that, is it possible to have a command in B1 that will automatically copy all the text from A. The formatted text, not the contents. Because then I can just ask for cells including "Mon" with

=COUNTIF(A2:A340, "*Mon*")

(crossposted to r/googlesheets , will reply with answer if found there)
