Fighting persists in Ukraine and Russia despite claims of an energy truce, as President Zelensky dismisses Ukraine's prosecutor general and the EU extends sanctions on Moscow.

On day 1,663 of the conflict in Ukraine, local authorities in the Kherson region reported two fatalities and 14 injuries from recent shelling. Meanwhile, Ukrainian drone strikes injured seven individuals across the Russian city of Sochi and the Belgorod region.

The military actions coincided with statements from US President Donald Trump claiming that both nations had agreed to cease attacks on energy infrastructure. In Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky issued a decree dismissing the prosecutor general. Concurrently, the European Union renewed its sanctions against Moscow. EU diplomatic chief Kaja Kallas and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot condemned a Russian strike on a train near the Ukrainian-Polish border, describing it as an attempt to intimidate European allies and cause division.
