Ukraine hit by blackouts after Russian strikes despite 'energy ceasefire'
Russian strikes damaged power plants and grids in Ukraine, leaving residents in Izyum without electricity after Trump announced an energy ceasefire.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump announced an immediate "energy ceasefire" between Russia and Ukraine, yet President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that Russian forces struck power plants and energy facilities hours after the declaration.
- Seeking to lower domestic fuel prices before midterm elections, Trump urged a mutual halt to energy infrastructure strikes, which Zelensky said would be "good news" if Moscow reciprocated.
- Russian forces launched 121 drones and a missile overnight, with Ukrainian air defenses shooting down 89, while strikes hit 15 locations including a power plant in Kharkiv and residential Kyiv.
- EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas expressed doubt regarding Russian compliance, while Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declined to confirm the agreement, stating only that "contacts are ongoing."
- A bipartisan group of six US senators, including four Republicans, urged the administration to reverse the deal, citing concerns the agreement provides a "financial lifeline" to Moscow as winter approaches.
