Zelenskyy Says Russia Keeps Striking Ukraine's Energy Sites Despite Trump Ceasefire Push

Zelenskyy said the attacks hit six power plants and left 600,000 people without electricity as Moscow rejected confirmation of any truce.

  • On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy denounced Russia's overnight bombardment of energy infrastructure in Kyiv and Kharkiv, striking six power plants and leaving at least 600,000 people without power in apparent defiance of President Donald Trump's claimed "energy ceasefire."
  • Moscow's forces pounded the power grid for the third straight night despite Trump claiming Russia and Ukraine agreed to an "energy ceasefire" 4 years after the invasion; the Kremlin has not confirmed the truce.
  • Russia fired 39 ballistic missiles and more than 120 drones in the assault, killing five people and injuring 36, while Ukraine received no advance warning from partners, raising concerns the United States may be withholding intelligence.
  • Ukrainian drones retaliated against Russian targets overnight as the Russian Defense Ministry reported 902 drones downed, while SpaceX imposed speed limits on Starlink terminals that adviser Serhii Beskrestnov said complicates logistics and strike operations.
  • Zelenskyy travels to London on Wednesday for talks with British Prime Minister Andy Burnham to bolster defenses, with plans to attend a European Union summit later this week as European allies weigh imposing more sanctions on Russia.
