President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated on Sunday that Russia has deliberately attacked Ukraine’s energy, oil, and gas sectors 76 times in the week following US President Donald Trump's announcement of an energy ceasefire. According to Business Recorder, the recent strikes targeted substations in the Odesa, Zhytomyr, Khmelnytskyi, and Vinnytsia regions, though neither Kyiv nor Moscow has confirmed the ceasefire agreement.
Separately, Brent crude oil prices rose to $110 a barrel on Friday, the first time they have reached that level since May, before settling at $109.86. The Economic Times - Top News reports that this increase was driven by concerns over global energy supplies resulting from Houthi militant attacks on Saudi Arabia and Iran-backed activities in the Strait of Hormuz.
During the week, Saudi Arabia intercepted missiles over the Red Sea, including one directed at the Yanbu oil export terminal, and destroyed three drones near Riyadh.
