Russia and Ukraine have launched air attacks that damaged each other’s infrastructure, hours after Vladimir Putin said Russia would stop targeting Ukrainian energy sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia’s targets included hospitals. He said the Russian leader had in effect rejected a comprehensive ceasefire in his call on Tuesday with US President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Putin told Trump a full ceasefire would only work if Ukraine’s allies stopped giving military assistance – a condition Ukraine’s European allies have previously rejected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officials in the southern Russian region of Krasnodar said that a Ukrainian drone attack sparked a small fire at an oil depot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Within hours of Putin agreeing to halt attacks on energy infrastructure, Zelensky said “there have been hits, specifically on civilian infrastructure”, including a hospital in Sumy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zelensky said that Russia launched more than 40 drones against Ukraine in the hours following the call between Trump and Putin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It is these types of night-time attacks by Russia that destroy our energy sector, our infrastructure, and the normal life of Ukrainians,” Zelensky said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Today, Putin effectively rejected the proposal for a full ceasefire.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, the Russian defence ministry said of the 57 Ukrainian drones it intercepted and destroyed overnight, 35 were over the Kursk border region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Belgorod, a Russian region on the border with Ukraine, the governor said the situation “remains difficult”. Moscow said on Tuesday that Ukrainian forces attempted a ground assault on Belgorod but were pushed back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
