Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy says Russia is continuing to attack Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, despite a US-brokered agreement to stop such attacks.
The Russian military on Thursday fired artillery at the city of Kherson, damaging an energy facility along with other buildings, Zelensky told a press conference in Paris.
“I think there should be a US response,” he said, adding that concrete action was needed rather than just words. Zelensky said Ukraine has recorded the violation, and that all the evidence is being prepared and will be handed over to the United States.
The local authorities said the Russian shelling had caused power outages in Kherson and had also damaged railway infrastructure. At least two people were killed and four injured in the attack. Representatives of Russia and Ukraine agreed on Tuesday in Riyadh to to implement a mutual ban on energy infrastructure strikes.
