Russia Unleashes DEADLY STRIKES After Easter Ceasefire Ends | Zelenskyy: ‘Truce Was Always a LIE!’

Russia launched deadly airstrikes across Ukraine just hours after ending its unilateral Easter ceasefire. Odesa was hit by a massive overnight drone attack, striking residential buildings, schools, and critical infrastructure. In Zaporizhzhia, Soviet-era glide bombs killed one woman and injured 22 civilians, including children. Ukraine reports over 2,900 ceasefire violations in just days. As Moscow escalates with 54 Shaheed drones in one night, tensions rise ahead of high-stakes talks between Kyiv, Washington, London, and Paris. Zelenskyy slams the ceasefire as a “sham” masking continued aggression. #RussiaUkraineWar #Ukraine #RussiaStrikes #DroneAttack #Odesa #Zaporizhzhia #Putin #Zelenskyy #CeasefireBreach #ShaheedDrones #UkraineWarNews #Invasion #CivilianTargets #WarCrimes #EasterCeasefire #GlideBombs #UkraineUnderAttack #UkraineNews #Kyiv #UkraineRussia #Moscow #WarInUkraine #BreakingNews #GeoPolitics #DroneWarfare #WarUpdate #UkraineConflict #NATO #USUKFrance #EasternEurope #KremlinStrike Also Read Preparations Underway For Vladimir Putin’s India Visit: Russian FM Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/preparations-underway-for-vladimir-putin-s-india-visit-russian-fm-lavrov-4106621.html?ref=DMDesc Diplomatic Breakthrough: Russia and Ukraine Commit to Black Sea Maritime Safety :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/diplomatic-breakthrough-russia-and-ukraine-commit-to-black-sea-maritime-safety-4105123.html?ref=DMDesc What Makes Ukraine’s Minerals So Special?

BREAKING: Ukraine Confirms Loss of Another U.S.-made F-16 Fighting Falcon During Combat Operations

26-year-old pilot Pavlo Ivanov was tragically killed in the mission, making this the second confirmed F-16 loss in the Ukraine war. However, a major question remains: Who shot it down — Russia or Ukraine itself? President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has demanded a full military report into the incident, as speculation grows over whether this was enemy fire or another deadly case of friendly fire. Russian military blogs claim the jet was downed by a surface-to-air missile (SAM), but Kyiv has not confirmed the cause. With rising tensions, high-risk air missions, and increasing losses, the F-16 saga raises urgent questions about Ukraine's air defense coordination and battlefield clarity. #F16Down #UkraineWar #PilotKilled #BreakingNews #UkraineConflict #RussiaUkraine #FriendlyFire #UkraineAirForce #PavloIvanov #Zelenskyy #WarInUkraine #F16Crash #NATOJets #MilitaryNews #EasternUkraine #UkraineDefense #USJetsInUkraine #AirCombat Also Read Pakistan Air force F-16 crashes in Islamabad during parade day rehearsal :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-air-force-f-16-crashes-in-islamabad-during-parade-day-rehearsal-3048159.html?ref=DMDesc Abhinandan Varthamanan: This year, that year, the dog fight which took down a Pak F-16 :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/abhinandan-varthamanan-this-year-that-year-the-dog-fight-which-took-down-a-pak-f-16-3040561.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Air Force fighters intercept Kabul bound Spice Jet plane, escort out of its airspace :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-air-force-fighters-intercept-kabul-bound-spice-jet-escort-out-of-airspace-2963140.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.346~HT.336~GR.124~
