Ukraine bets on a 40-day push to pressure Russia as Crimea outages bite

President Zelenskyy announced a 40-day operation against Russian targets to pressure Moscow to end the war, with Ukraine claiming strikes on oil refineries in Ufa and an oil depot in Krasnodar; Crimea faced power shortages after Ukrainian drones hit Sevastopol, Belarus relay stations were silenced, and Chernihiv evacuation orders were issued. Kyiv also warned Russia was moving air defences toward Moscow while prioritising protection of the Kerch Bridge and other key assets.

Kremlin Broadens Peace-Talk Agenda as Energy-Strikes Pause Is Framed as a Limited Concession

ISW says the Kremlin rejects Rubio’s claim that Donetsk Oblast is the only unresolved issue in peace talks, arguing that many topics remain. Moscow reportedly agreed to a temporary pause on striking Ukrainian energy infrastructure at Trump’s request, but ISW views it as a limited concession while Russia continues offensives across multiple axes and pursues long-term aims in Donetsk, Kharkiv, Oskil River, and Zaporizhzhia. The report also notes ongoing alleged POW executions and other war crimes by Russian forces, and Belarus increasing military ties with Russia amid the conflict, with Ukraine facing continued energy outages.
