20.04.2025 ⇢ Day Putin's Easter Truce Shattered By 3,000 Violations
⌨Putin's Easter ceasefire announcement from April 19 quickly proved hollow as Ukrainian sources reported 387 Russian attacks before midnight. By morning, Zelensky revealed Russian forces continued operations with 26 assault attempts. At 10 AM, Russia intensified shelling and doubled FPV drone usage to over 400 deployments.
The situation deteriorated when Ukrainian forces fell into a Russian ambush near Toretsk, resulting in casualties. By evening, Zelensky reported nearly 3,000 ceasefire violations throughout the day. The Kremlin rejected extending the truce despite the White House supporting continuation.
In parallel, peace negotiations gained momentum with a US team heading to London next week. Trump boldly predicted a Ukraine-Russia agreement within days, claiming both countries would subsequently "do big business" with the US. Zelensky proposed a 30-day ban on long-range strikes as an alternative, but received no Russian response.
