The Russian military has accused Ukraine of deliberately sabotaging a temporary truce on targeting energy infrastructures by orchestrating a drone attack on an oil depot in southern Russia.

This incident reportedly occurred just hours after a conversation between Russian President Vladimir Putin and former U.S. President Donald Trump, during which they agreed on a 30-day moratorium.

The overnight attack ignited a fire at the oil facility located near the village of Kavkazskaya in the Krasnodar region, according to local authorities. No casualties have been reported yet.
