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

US President Donald Trump announced that Russia and Ukraine agreed to pause strikes on energy infrastructure, though combat and casualties persist across several fronts. Local Ukrainian authorities reported two deaths and 14 injuries from Russian shelling in Kherson, while Ukrainian drone attacks reportedly injured seven people in Sochi and Russia's Belgorod region.

In Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a decree dismissing the country's prosecutor general. Meanwhile, European Union officials extended sanctions against Moscow following a Russian strike on a train near the Ukrainian-Polish border. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot described the train attack as an effort to intimidate European nations and sow division among Kyiv's allies.
