Zelensky Condemns Russia's Attacks Amid Trump Ceasefire

Ukraine has accused Russia of willfully ignoring Donald Trump's proposed "energy ceasefire" following a renewed wave of missile strikes that resulted in four fatalities and left 600,000 people without power. The attacks targeted energy facilities and critical infrastructure in Kyiv and the eastern Kharkiv region, as reported by Prime Minister Sergiy Koretsky.

President Volodymyr Zelensky described the attacks as "entirely deliberate and demonstrative in its scale," asserting that Russia has shown unprecedented disrespect towards the U.S. Trump had recently announced the ceasefire, which surprised both Kyiv and Moscow, following a controversial deal to supply diesel fuel to Russia.

Tensions have escalated, with reports indicating that the U.S. threatened to withdraw intelligence-sharing with Ukraine. Additionally, Zelensky noted that Ukraine received no early warning about the missile launches, calling it "absolutely unjust." An aide also mentioned that the operation of Starlink internet terminals was disrupted, suggesting a connection to the political situation.
