Six Ukrainian energy facilities have been targeted by Russia since former U.S. President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed today. The attacks occurred in various regions of Ukraine, including the eastern part near the frontline with Russian-backed separatists.
Zelensky condemned the attacks, labeling them as a deliberate attempt to destabilize the country and undermine the peace efforts. He stated that these actions go against the spirit of the ceasefire and expressed concerns about the safety of Ukrainian citizens.
On the other hand, Russia denied any involvement in the incidents. The Russian government dismissed the accusations as baseless and called for an independent investigation to determine the true perpetrators.
