Trump claims Russia and Ukraine agreed to refrain from energy infrastructure strikes

U.S. President Donald Trump claimed Moscow and Kyiv agreed to refrain from targeting energy infrastructure, even as strikes persisted and the EU extended sanctions.
U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Moscow and Kyiv have agreed to refrain from targeting energy infrastructure, even as hostilities continue across multiple fronts. Ukrainian officials reported two fatalities and 14 injuries following shelling in the Kherson region, while Russian authorities said Ukrainian drone strikes wounded seven people in the Belgorod and Sochi regions.
International reactions intensified following a Russian attack on a train near the Ukrainian-Polish border. European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot stated the strike was intended to intimidate and divide European nations. Following the incident, the European Union formally extended its sanctions against Moscow.
In Kyiv, domestic political shifts continued as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed an executive decree dismissing the nation's prosecutor general.
