What was meant to be a 30-hour Easter ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine quickly descended into chaos, as both sides exchanged fire and accusations. Within hours of Russian President Vladimir Putin announcing a āhumanitarianā truce, Ukrainian strikes reportedly hit Donetsk and Lugansk, triggering fires and damage. Kyiv, meanwhile, accused Moscow of using the ceasefire as a smokescreen while continuing drone and artillery attacks. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed Russia carried out nearly 400 assaults overnight, but questions are now being raised: Did Zelensky fall into a trap? Who really broke the truce first?

The Kremlin has confirmed that Russian President Vladimir Putin has not extended the Easter ceasefire with Ukraine, which was set to end at midnight on April 21. Despite Putin's initial announcement for a 30-hour truce, both Russia and Ukraine accused each other of multiple violations during the pause. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov clarified that no additional orders were given to prolong the ceasefire. Ukrainian President Zelensky indicated willingness to extend the truce if Moscow adhered to the terms, but both sides reported hundreds of attacks during the declared pause in hostilities.
