Zelensky Blasts Diesel Deal After Russian Strikes Kill 15
Zelensky said the deal would ease pressure on Moscow after Russian strikes killed at least 15 people, including three children, Ukrainian officials said.
- Early Saturday, Russia targeted residential neighborhoods in Zaporizhzhia with "five guided aerial bombs," killing at least 15 people, among them three children, according to Ukraine's authorities.
- President Donald Trump announced Friday that President Putin agreed to release large amounts of diesel onto global markets for sanctions relief, with Trump stating prices would be "coming down, in record numbers, and fast."
- Kyiv suffered "large-scale power outages" Saturday due to Russian strikes, according to energy provider DTEK; rescuer Daniil Pishkin told AFP he saw people pulled from rubble, adding "unfortunately there was a little girl who died."
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told reporters the deal was "unworthy of our partners," while foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said lifting sanctions would help "fuel the Kremlin's war on Ukraine."
- U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff discussed "potential avenues to de-escalate" the conflict with NATO and European officials in Miami on Friday, though Moscow has intensified its bombardment of Ukraine in recent months, leaving peace efforts deadlocked.
