War Ukraine Russia, Trump-Putin agreement on diesel. Kiev drones on Russian terminal. LIVE

The US is trying to revive talks to end the conflict in Ukraine, with a Kiev delegation and European envoys arriving in Miami for two-day talks with US negotiators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. But at the same time Donald Trump opens a game on another table, speaking on the phone with Vladimir Putin and securing precious help from him in view of the Midterm elections: supplies of millions of tons of diesel, which will be exempt from US sanctions until April, with the aim of lowering energy prices. An announcement confirmed by Putin himself. Volodymyr Zelensky's reaction was immediate: "Gifts to Putin will not bring peace or any benefit to the civilized world and Russia will 'repay' the diesel with further terror and perfidy.

US President Donald Trump struck a diesel deal with Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ignored his numerous pleas to stop attacks on Russian oil refineries. Axios writes this, citing a well-informed American official, according to whom Trump believes that the Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries are directly affecting American consumers. "Zelensky is misinterpreting the situation. By continuing to target refineries, he is eroding the good relationship that has been built with Trump over the last six months," the US official was quoted by Axios as saying on condition of anonymity. “Attacks on refineries cause pain in Russia, but they also cause pain for the United States,” the U.S. official said.

In an interview with Axios after the announcement of the suspension of American sanctions on Russian diesel, Zelensky said he was shocked by the agreement between Trump and Putin, which he defined as "unfair and dishonest", as well as an unjustified gift to the Kremlin leader. Zelensky had previously told Trump and his envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner that he was ready to stop attacks on Russian oil refineries if Moscow stopped attacks on Ukrainian power plants. The US official instead told Axios that Trump wanted Ukraine to unilaterally stop attacks on Russian refineries because they were contributing to rising gas prices in the United States. Trump did not view attacks on Russian refineries on the same level as Russian attacks on Ukraine's power grid, another U.S. official said.

Russian guided bombs hit an apartment building in Zaporizhzhia, southern Ukraine, killing four people and wounding four others, one seriously. The Kyiv Independent reports it. Mykhailo Semikin, head of the military administration of Zaporizhzhia Oblast, explained that Russian forces hit a five-story residential building with guided aerial bombs around 5 this morning. The attack partially destroyed an entrance to the condominium, causing the collapse of some sections of the structure up to the second floor.

“There could still be one person under the rubble,” Semikin said. Rescue operations and the search for survivors are still underway.

Ukrainian armed forces conducted a drone attack on an oil export terminal in Novoshakhtinsk in southern Russia's Rostov region, causing a large fire. The local media reported it, while images of the refinery in flames were shared on social media. Located on the Don River, it is responsible for storing and loading fuel onto oil tankers intended for transportation across the Sea of ​​Azov. The attack follows US President Donald Trump's announcement of talks with Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin which led to the suspension of sanctions on Russian diesel until April next year.

The Rostov terminal hit by Ukrainian drones is used to receive, store and load oil products onto river and sea tankers, with an annual handling capacity of up to 3.5 million tons, almost 300 thousand tons per month. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had defined the easing of US sanctions against Russia as ''a sign of weakness'', saying it would not contribute to peace.

Donald Trump decided to end the diesel deal with Russia after Volodymyr Zelesnky ignored repeated American requests to stop attacks on Russian oil refineries. Axios reports it citing some sources. "Zelensky is misjudging the situation. By continuing to hit refineries, he is undermining" the trust and willingness gained by Trump over the last six months, an American official explained. The president wanted Ukraine to unilaterally stop attacks on refineries because they were driving up energy prices in the United States.
