Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized Russia for not complying with a ceasefire that began on Saturday, despite a notable decrease in large-scale drone and missile attacks. The ceasefire was brokered by US President Donald Trump, who announced a three-day pause in military activities and an exchange of 1,000 prisoners from each side. However, fighting has persisted along the front line, with nine injuries reported in eastern Ukraine on the second day of the ceasefire. Both nations have accused each other of violating the agreement, with Russia's defense ministry claiming 16,071 ceasefire violations by Ukraine within 24 hours, including drone attacks on civilian sites. Ukraine's air force noted a reduction in long-range drone strikes from Russia, but reported ongoing clashes, with nearly 210 incidents recorded along the 1,200-km front line since the ceasefire began. The conflict, which escalated following Russia's invasion in 2022, has resulted in significant casualties and remains a major focus of international diplomatic efforts.
