Overview

  • Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to a 30-day ceasefire on attacks targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure following discussions with Donald Trump.
  • Despite the agreement, Ukraine reported that Russia launched 145 drones and multiple missiles overnight, hitting energy facilities.
  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also committed to suspending attacks on Russian energy and civilian infrastructure as part of the deal.
  • Trump proposed U.S. ownership of Ukrainian power plants to protect the country's energy infrastructure, though the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant remains under Russian control.
  • Zelenskyy requested additional Patriot air defense systems from the U.S., with Trump expressing willingness to explore availability, particularly in Europe.
