Ukraine Proposes Ceasefire, Russia Violates It 1820 Times
Despite Ukraine’s proposed ceasefire beginning May 6, Russia reportedly violated the terms 1,820 times by 10 a.m. local time, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky. These violations included attacks on civilian infrastructure, attempted assaults, and drone strikes across Ukraine, particularly in Zaporizhzhia and Dnipro. Concurrently, Russia accused Ukraine of breaching its own ceasefire by launching attacks on occupied Crimea and Russia’s Bryansk Oblast. Russia’s Foreign Ministry further stated that its air defenses intercepted or downed numerous Ukrainian drones overnight. Zelensky characterized Russia’s actions as a clear rejection of peace, with Ukrainian officials denouncing Moscow’s inability to uphold a ceasefire and highlighting the insincerity of Russia’s own proposed ceasefires for Victory Day.
