KYIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Monday that Ukrainian forces had carried out strikes on Russian energy infrastructure in the Rostov, Yaroslavl and Udmurt regions.
In a statement posted on X, Zelensky said the attacks targeted an export terminal in the Rostov region, about 150 kilometres from the front line, as well as oil-related facilities in the Yaroslavl region and the Udmurt Republic.
He praised Ukraine’s defence forces for what he described as precise long-range operations, saying the strikes were aimed at increasing pressure on Russia while advancing Ukraine’s goal of achieving a lasting and dignified peace.
Russia has not immediately commented on the reported strikes, and the claims could not be independently verified.
Kremlin: No proposal for air ceasefire so far
Kremlin Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that Russia has not yet received any proposals on a potential air ceasefire from Ukraine. An earlier media report suggested that officials from Ukraine and the United States are considering a proposal that would halt the highly destructive airstrikes exchanged by Ukraine and Russia daily.
Peskov told reporters that Moscow has not seen any new formulas for a peace settlement either. Asked about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s claim that Russia plans to deploy an additional 30,000 North Korean soldiers, Peskov refused to comment, stating that “it is not Zelensky who should be talking about our plans.”
