Trump claims Russia and Ukraine agreed to pause energy infrastructure strikes

Donald Trump stated that Russia and Ukraine have agreed to refrain from targeting energy infrastructure, according to reports on the conflict's 1,663rd day.

The development occurs alongside continued combat and administrative changes in Kyiv, where President Volodymyr Zelensky dismissed the state prosecutor general by decree. Meanwhile, local officials reported two fatalities and 14 injuries from shelling in Kherson, while Ukrainian drone attacks in Sochi and Russia's Belgorod region injured seven people.

In response to a Russian strike on a train near the Polish border, EU diplomatic chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot stated the action aimed to intimidate European partners and create division. The EU has also extended its sanctions against Russia.
