EU extends Russia sanctions as Trump claims deal on energy strikes

The European Union has extended sanctions against Russia following a Russian strike on a train close to the Ukrainian-Polish border. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot condemned the attack, stating it was designed to divide and intimidate European allies.

Meanwhile, military escalations continued across the region. Russian shelling in Ukraine's Kherson region killed two people and injured 14 others. Concurrently, Ukrainian drone strikes hit targets in Russia's Belgorod region and Sochi, leaving seven people wounded.

In diplomatic developments, US President Donald Trump claimed that Moscow and Kyiv have agreed to halt attacks on each other's energy infrastructure. Separately, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky issued an executive decree dismissing Ukraine's prosecutor general from his post.
