Trump says Russia agreed to energy truce, but Kyiv says it did not
Russia has not agreed to halt attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure, despite U.S. President Donald Trump’s claim that Moscow and Kyiv had reached a reciprocal agreement, Bloomberg reported on Sept. 14, citing a Ukrainian official.
Russian forces struck two additional UKRNAFTA gas stations in Kyiv on Tuesday, according to the head of Naftogaz, Ukraine's state-run gas company. Serhiy Fedorenko reported that the enemy targeted civilian infrastructure in the capital, specifically two stations located on both sides of the Dnipro River. Fedorenko stated that the gas stations immediately halted operations upon the initiation of an air raid alert, with employees seeking shelter and no customers present at the time.
Naftogaz's chief emphasized that the company adheres to a strict safety protocol, ceasing all gas station operations during any air raid warning to safeguard staff and patrons. Earlier reports indicated that Russian aggression had targeted two gas stations in Kyiv's Darnytsky and Holosiivsky districts, resulting in at least one injury and significant smoke.
Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed that a man sustained serious injuries after a drone attack at the Darnytsky district gas station, while strong smoke was observed near the Holosiivskyi district location. On September 11, Russian forces simultaneously attacked two JSC Ukrnafta gas stations in Kyiv, situated in the Obolonsky and Dniprovsky districts.
