Heavy Russian Losses in East Ukraine Despite Shaky Ceasefire
A partial ceasefire on energy infrastructure between Russia and Ukraine commenced on March 25th, following negotiations involving the US. Despite this agreement, both sides traded accusations of ceasefire violations, with Russia launching a diplomatic campaign to discredit Ukraine and President Zelenskyy. Russia claimed Ukraine attacked energy facilities in Russia, while Ukraine denied these accusations and countered with accusations of Russian provocations. This partial ceasefire, brokered after the US abandoned an earlier, more comprehensive proposal, has been marked by conflicting statements and ongoing hostilities in other areas of the conflict.
