Summary

Russian forces claim to have struck the CHP-5 power plant in Kharkiv's suburbs on October 11, an event disputed by Ukrainian officials including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and a senior Ukrainian official. According to the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor's Office, the strike with Banderol-class missiles caused three deaths and nine injuries, prompting a war crimes investigation. Power outages were reported in Kyiv following the strikes. The incident occurred hours after U.S. President Donald Trump announced an energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, which Ukraine indicated willingness to accept but Russia has not confirmed. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas expressed skepticism about Russia's commitment to the ceasefire.
