  "account": "A power plant in Kharkiv, eastern Ukraine, was struck twice by Russian forces despite President Donald Trump announcing an energy ceasefire earlier that day, according to Ukrainian officials. A local official confirmed that the thermal power plant CHP-5 caught fire following the attack. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed the incident in a statement, stating that it occurred after Trump's announcement. Ukraine had reportedly been ready to accept the ceasefire immediately if Russia agreed, but learned of the announcement through social media. Zelenskyy expressed surprise at the unexpected ceasefire declaration and emphasized Ukraine's readiness to halt attacks on Russian energy facilities if Russia reciprocated. Ukraine had proposed numerous de-escalation measures, and Zelenskyy urged Russia to match Ukraine's willingness for peace. The Kremlin has not yet commented on the incident.",
