Russian strikes hit key power plant in Kyiv, Zelensky says

Russian ballistic missile strikes targeted a key energy facility in Kyiv, Ukraine, on Tuesday night, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The Darnytska CHP-4 power plant, along with a nearby residential building, were the primary targets. US President Donald Trump had claimed an energy ceasefire had been reached between Russia and Ukraine two days prior to the attack.

However, Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported that no early warnings were given by Ukrainian partners before the missile strike. As a result, two people were killed and 21 were injured in the residential building. Since the claimed agreement on the energy ceasefire, Kyiv has faced multiple Russian missile attacks. Following the Tuesday night strikes, Kyiv officials declared a red alert due to a "missile threat" and urged residents to seek shelter.

Zelensky condemned the strikes, stating that Russia is targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure while failing to provide early warnings about ballistic missile launches.
