Ukraine and Russia blame for breaking Easter example

The Russian Defense Ministry said the Ukrainian Armed Forces had repeatedly violated the Easter ceasefire yesterday declared Russian President Vladimir Putin.

« Despite the announcement of the Easter ceasefire, Ukraine’s armed forces units tried to attack the positions of Russian troops in the areas of the Suha Balka and Balkan settlements in the Donetsk People’s Republic, but these attacks were rejected, » the ministry said in a statement.

In addition, at night, according to the same report, the Ukrainian side used 48 drones, including one operating on Crimea.

Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski today accused Russia of creating « an illusion of respect for Easter ceasefire », saying Moscow continued the attacks overnight after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a unilateral truce in Ukraine.

« On the Easter morning we can conclude that the Russian army is trying to create a general impression of a ceasefire, while in some areas it continues with isolated attempts to advance and inflict losses to Ukraine. Russia must fully respect the conditions of the ceasefire, » he wrote on Telegram.

He added that Ukraine’s proposal to implement and extend the ceasefire for 30 days after midnight remains at the table.

Zelenski further said there were 59 cases of Russian shelling and five attacks by Russian units.

« In the Kursk area, Russian forces carried out artillery attacks and used drones. Everywhere our fighters respond as the enemy deserves, based on the specific combat situation. Ukraine will continue to act reciprocally, » the Ukrainian president wrote.

Greenski congratulates Easter in a special announcement, stating that « evil may have his hour, but the Lord will have his day » and that sooner or later evil will withdraw and life will win.
