EU officials condemn Russian border strike as Trump claims energy truce

European Union officials condemned a Russian attack targeting a train near the Ukrainian-Polish border, warning that the strike aimed to intimidate European nations and fracture regional unity. EU diplomacy chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot denounced the incident amid continued cross-border hostilities.

On the battlefield, Ukrainian officials in Kherson reported two fatalities and 14 injuries from recent Russian shelling. Meanwhile, drone strikes in Russia's Sochi and Belgorod regions reportedly left seven people injured.

In diplomatic developments, U.S. President Donald Trump claimed that Moscow and Kyiv reached an informal understanding to refrain from striking each other's energy infrastructure. Separately, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a decree dismissing the country's prosecutor general as the EU officially extended its sanctions framework against Russia.
