Russia does not hit Ukrainian energy targets for the first time since US President Donald Trump’s weekend announcement of an “energy ceasefire,” according to reports citing Russian and Ukrainian strike accounts.
Outlets say that overnight into Tuesday, Russia’s defence ministry summary makes no mention of attacks on energy infrastructure. Instead, it describes strikes focused on cities’ transport and logistics, carried out with ballistic missiles and drones. Other reporting notes that it is not immediately clear whether the lack of energy targeting is deliberate or simply temporary. Separately, Kyiv says it will honour a truce if Moscow does, framing the episode as part of a developing pause in certain categories of attacks.
While all sources align on the reported absence of energy targeting and the continued use of missiles and drones against other targets, they differ in emphasis: some focus on the timing relative to Trump’s announcement, while others highlight the uncertainty over Russia’s intent and whether the broader “truce” framework is being implemented consistently.
