Trump says Russia and Ukraine agree to 'energy ceasefire'
U.S. President Donald Trump said Russia and Ukraine have agreed to an "energy ceasefire." The deal would stop attacks on energy infrastructure in both countries. Trump announced the agreement but gave no details on when it would start or how long it would last. Neither Russia nor Ukraine has confirmed the deal. An energy ceasefire means both sides promise not to strike power plants, pipelines, or other energy sites. Such attacks have caused blackouts and heating failures for millions of people during the war. It is not clear whether the agreement covers other types of fighting. The war continues on the ground, and previous ceasefire attempts have failed. Officials from Russia and Ukraine have not responded to Trump's statement. More information is expected in the coming days.
