Ukraine received no intelligence from partners about missiles headed to Kyiv, Zelenskyy says

Euronews.com • • general

Key Points:

  • A Russian ballistic missile struck a power plant (CHP-4) in Kyiv on Tuesday evening, causing significant damage and killing at least two people, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko.
  • Ukraine did not receive any early warning from Western allies about the missile attack, despite relying heavily on their intelligence to detect Russian strikes, which Zelenskyy criticized as unjust.
  • Kyiv, with a population of about three million, has been increasingly targeted by Russian drones and missiles, particularly focusing on energy infrastructure to disrupt the city’s power supply.
  • Confusion arose after US President Donald Trump announced an "energy ceasefire" on his social media platform, claiming Russia and Ukraine agreed to halt long-range strikes on energy facilities, a claim not supported by recent events.
  • Ukrainian officials noted that the delayed air raid sirens during recent attacks might be due to Russia’s use of hard-to-detect missiles or technical issues with warning systems.
