Zelenskyy Confirms Continued Strikes on Russian Oil Facilities Amid Peace Stagnation
The Ukrainian president announced ongoing operations against Russian oil refineries as a response to energy infrastructure attacks, while the Kremlin dismissed immediate prospects for peace.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced that his country will continue its military operations targeting Russian oil refining facilities. He stated that these actions are a direct response to Russian strikes against Ukraine's own energy infrastructure.
The announcement was made via Telegram following reports from Russian officials regarding multiple strikes on oil sites over the past week.
In response, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov downplayed the possibility of reaching a peace agreement in the near future, citing a lack of European readiness to engage in discussions regarding continental security.
