Zelenskyy accuses Russia of striking power plant after Trump's claim of energy ceasefire
Ukrainian officials said the CHP-5 plant was hit at least twice and set on fire, underscoring continued attacks on energy infrastructure.
- President Donald Trump announced via Truth Social that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to an immediate "energy ceasefire" regarding infrastructure attacks, declaring: "Effective immediately, there is an ENERGY CEASEFIRE in the War between Russia and Ukraine. Both parties have agreed. Do not break it!"
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reacted with surprise, telling media that the announced deal was "news to me," while emphasizing that Kyiv remains willing to halt strikes on Russian energy infrastructure if Moscow genuinely adheres to the same terms.
- Just hours after Trump's declaration, Ukrainian officials reported that Russian forces struck the CHP-5 combined heat and power plant in Kharkiv, alongside continuing drone and aerial bomb attacks targeting Ukraine's energy grid.
- President Zelenskyy publicly highlighted the Kharkiv power plant strike to demonstrate that Russia has not abided by any unilateral ceasefire claims, calling on Washington to specify when and how the proposed arrangement will actually be enforced.
- The diplomatic dispute follows persistent pressure from the Trump administration for Ukraine to stop targeting Russian oil refineries and fuel depots—strikes Washington blamed for compounding global energy market disruptions following the Persian Gulf naval escalation.
