Summary
Russian forces reportedly struck an energy facility on the outskirts of Kharkiv on October 11, according to Ukrainian authorities and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The attack resulted in 3 deaths and 9 injured. Ukrainian officials stated the strike caused significant damage to a high-rise building and power outages in Kyiv. The incident occurred hours after US President Donald Trump announced an 'energy ceasefire' between Russia and Ukraine. Zelenskyy expressed willingness to comply with the ceasefire if Russia reciprocated, but said Russia continued striking energy infrastructure in Kharkiv and Kyiv. European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas expressed skepticism about Russia's commitment to the ceasefire. The Kremlin did not immediately confirm the attack. Ukrainian officials characterized Russian targeting of energy facilities as 'weaponising winter' to deny civilians power, heat, and water.
