The AFU did not violate the "energy truce" — General Staff
This is stated on the General Staff's Facebook page.
On March 25-26, the Ukrainian Defense Forces did not launch UAV strikes on Russian energy facilities in the Kursk and Bryansk regions, as well as on energy facilities in the territory of Crimea temporarily occupied by the Russians.
The Russian Defense Ministry is spreading false and baseless accusations in order to prolong the war, continue false propaganda, and typical Russian attempts to deceive the world, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noted.
As reported, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that Ukraine allegedly continues to attack the country's energy infrastructure.
In particular, the Russians stated that on the night of March 26, two Ukrainian UAVs were allegedly shot down off the coast of Crimea, and the object of the attack "was the ground equipment of the Glibovka gas storage facility."
The Russian Federation also accused Ukraine of an "energy attack" on the Kursk and Bryansk regions.
