Ukraine to Resume Strikes on Russian Oil Refineries, Zelensky Says
Ukrainian President Zelensky announced the resumption of attacks on Russian oil refineries, ending a period of self-restraint, while expressing frustration over US restrictions on intelligence sharing and Starlink satellite services. In an interview with the Financial Times in London, Zelensky stated the restraint policy is withdrawn, criticizing President Trump's pressure to halt strikes and his controversial deal to purchase Russian diesel fuel. Ukraine also reported Starlink service limitations affecting military operations. Zelensky accused Trump of favoring Russia and revealed US warnings to stop energy facility attacks or lose intelligence support. He described the fuel agreement as a clear victory for Moscow, acknowledging Ukraine is losing a powerful partner.
