Daily Summary

Russia and Ukraine are accusing each other of breaking a U.S.-mediated 30-day ceasefire designed to stop attacks on energy infrastructure, with both sides disputing when the pause began and trading blame for continuous strikes. Russia claims Ukraine has been attacking almost daily, while Ukraine alleges that Russia has launched thousands of deadly drone and missile attacks, including a strike that downed one of its Western-supplied F-16 jets. Meanwhile, fragile diplomatic efforts continue amid escalating military actions and unresolved preconditions for securing safe Black Sea shipping.
