Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reacted sharply after Russian forces struck his country's electricity network and fuel sites for a third night in a row, following US President Donald Trump's statement that Moscow and Kyiv had accepted a pause in attacks on energy targets. The Kremlin has not confirmed any such agreement, saying only that talks continue. Zelensky, who has agreed to end Ukraine's strikes on Russian refineries, posted on social media calling for a strong international reaction to Russia's air assaults. Russian attacks overnight into Wednesday hit power plants in the Kyiv area and Kharkiv, leaving at least 600,000 people without electricity, Ukrainian officials said; Kyiv police reported five dead and 36 wounded. Zelensky was due in London to meet British Prime Minister Andy Burnham as Kyiv and European backers seek to bolster Ukraine's defenses.
