Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Claims Putin Agreed To Pause Attacks On Kyiv During Extreme Cold

Caption: Trump claims Putin agreed to pause attacks on Kyiv during extreme cold. Donald Trump said Vladimir Putin had agreed not to strike Kyiv or other Ukrainian cities for a week because of exceptionally cold weather. Speaking during a cabinet meeting in Washington, Trump described a direct request to Putin to halt attacks amid plunging temperatures, claiming the Russian leader accepted the proposal. Moscow has not confirmed any such agreement, but Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed the announcement and described it as an important step for protecting civilians. Zelensky said discussions between Ukrainian and U.S. teams had taken place in the United Arab Emirates and expressed hope that the arrangements would be respected. Ukraine is expected to mirror Russia’s actions by pausing strikes on Russian oil refineries during the same period, according to information understood by the BBC. Overnight air raid alerts were limited to four Ukrainian regions near the front line, as temperatures in Kyiv were forecast to fall as low as minus 24 degrees Celsius. Russia has repeatedly intensified attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure during cold spells, leaving millions without reliable heating or electricity since the invasion began in 2022. While trilateral talks involving Russia, Ukraine and the United States have been described as constructive, there has been no official confirmation of a formal pause in hostilities.
