Ukraine halted attacks on Russian oil refineries for two days after Trump's ceasefire announcement, but Russia ignored the truce. Zelensky said Ukraine has not targeted Russian energy infrastructure since Oct 11, but Moscow continued strikes on Ukrainian power plants and critical infrastructure.
Zelensky confirmed Ukraine stopped attacks on Russian refineries following Trump's Oct 11 announcement, but Russia violated the ceasefire. He said Russia has attacked over 200 Ukrainian energy facilities in the past week, killing more than 150 people and wounding over 700.
Ukraine's energy grid remains under attack as Kyiv experiences power outages and water shortages. Zelensky called for Russia to halt strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure and emphasized the need for global pressure to end the conflict.
Zelensky said Ukraine is ready to respect an energy ceasefire if Russia is willing to do the same, but the truce only addresses oil refineries. He stressed the need for broader de-escalation efforts and warned that continued attacks will not bring peace.
