President Trump Announces Three-Day Ceasefire Between Ukraine and Russia Amid Victory Day Parade
President Donald Trump announced a three-day ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, set to take place from May 9 to May 11, 2026. This agreement, brokered by Trump, includes a suspension of all kinetic activities and a prisoner swap involving 1,000 prisoners from each country. The ceasefire coincides with Russia's Victory Day military parade, which is being held in a scaled-down format due to security concerns. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed a decree allowing the parade to proceed in Moscow, although the ceasefire is limited to the Red Square area. The Kremlin has heightened security measures in Moscow, fearing potential drone attacks from Ukraine, which has demonstrated the capability to strike deep into Russian territory.
