Russia ukraine war: energy strikes continue despite Trump ceasefire claim
Zelenskyy says Russia is hitting Ukraine's fuel reserves, even after Trump claimed an energy ceasefire.
Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, says Russia still hits Ukraine's fuel reserves and energy sites. On Sunday, US President Donald Trump posted that a so-called energy ceasefire took effect right away.
Ukrainian officials say Russia kept hitting energy sites in Kyiv and Kharkiv. This was after the announcement.
Officials say at least 12 people were hurt in several Russian attacks on Kharkiv on Monday. Kharkiv's mayor said drones hit a high-rise building.
Floors seven to nine were destroyed. Zelenskyy says Ukraine will respond if Russia does not agree to an energy ceasefire.
The EU's top diplomat, Kaja Kallas, says she has seen no sign Russia will respect an energy pause. Australia says it backs an energy ceasefire that Russia respects, on Ukraine's terms.
