Trump claims Russia and Ukraine agreed to pause energy strikes as fighting continues

US President Donald Trump announced that Russia and Ukraine agreed to refrain from targeting each other's energy infrastructure, according to recent reports. However, military strikes continue to inflict casualties on both sides. Ukrainian local authorities confirmed two deaths and 14 injuries from Russian shelling in the Kherson region. Conversely, Ukrainian drone strikes injured seven individuals across Russia's Belgorod region and the coastal city of Sochi.

Concurrently, European Union leaders extended sanctions against Moscow. EU Foreign Policy Chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot stated a Russian attack on a train near the Ukrainian-Polish border aimed to intimidate European nations. In Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky formally dismissed the country's prosecutor general via decree.
