Putin’s Easter ceasefire

Yesterday the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin announced the so-called Easter ceasefire, which was supposedly to last for 30 hours, from yesterday until Monday morning.

However, as it turned out, despite the statements about a truce, combat actions did not cease.

In particular, in Kherson around 6:00 PM, a multi-storey building caught fire as a result of drone strikes, and several populated areas in the region were also attacked. Andrii Kovalenko, the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation, reported on the shelling that continues unabated in the east of the country.
