Russia and Ukraine Agree to Limited Black Sea Ceasefire After U.S.-Mediated Talks

The agreement aims to ensure safe navigation and protect energy infrastructure, but implementation faces challenges due to ongoing hostilities and unresolved sanctions disputes.

• Russia and Ukraine have agreed to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire in the Black Sea, focusing on safe navigation and preventing the use of commercial vessels for military purposes.
• Both nations committed to developing measures to ban strikes on energy infrastructure, though the scope of the agreement remains contested.
• Russia has tied the ceasefire's implementation to the lifting of sanctions on its agricultural and financial sectors, a demand Ukraine opposes.
• Cross-border attacks continue, with a Russian missile strike on Sumy injuring over 100 people, including 23 children, highlighting ongoing hostilities.
• Further negotiations are expected, but no concrete timeline or broader resolution has been established following the talks in Saudi Arabia.
