Russia's Alleged Ceasefire Violations Escalate Tensions with Ukraine
Russia has reportedly violated a recently announced Easter ceasefire over 400 times, according to Ukraine's General Staff. The ceasefire, which was supposed to last 32 hours starting from April 11, was breached with 469 recorded violations. These included 22 enemy assault actions, 153 instances of shelling, 19 kamikaze drone strikes, and 275 FPV drone strikes. The General Staff also reported 101 combat clashes along the front lines. In the North Slobozhansk and Kursk directions, Russian forces conducted 45 attacks on Ukrainian positions, with four involving multiple launch rocket systems. Meanwhile, Russian authorities accused Ukraine of violating the ceasefire by targeting locations in the Kursk and Belgorod regions with drone strikes, injuring five people. The ceasefire was initially announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Ukraine had expressed willingness to observe a similar truce.
