Trump announces energy ceasefire
On Sunday morning, Donald Trump announced an immediate energy ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine war, saying both parties had agreed to stop hitting each other's energy infrastructure.
“effective immediately, there is an ENERGY CEASEFIRE in the War between Russia and Ukraine”
Ukraine says it was not consulted
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the ceasefire announcement was news to him. Russia has still not confirmed its agreement to the deal.
“news to me”
Russia strikes Ukrainian power plants
On Sunday, Russian drones hit a Kyiv power plant causing outages, and struck a power plant in Kharkiv. Zelenskyy said Ukrainian skies had been infested with Russian shaheds all day.
“Ukrainian skies have been infested with Russian 'shaheds' all day”
Russian attacks kill six civilians
Russian attacks killed six people in two Ukrainian cities on Sunday. A strike on a grocery store in Kharkiv killed three people and injured twenty, including two children.
Europe doubts Russia will comply
EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said the bloc would welcome a truce but only when it holds, adding we have not yet seen Russia stick to it.
“when it holds”
The key point
Russia struck Ukrainian energy facilities on Sunday despite Trump's announcement of an energy ceasefire, which Ukraine said was news to it and Russia has not confirmed.
