Despite Vladimir Putin’s announced “Easter truce” ceasing all military operations, air raid alerts sounded across Ukraine shortly after its purported commencement. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy immediately denounced the truce as a sham, citing the detection of Russian attack drones in Ukrainian airspace. Zelenskyy asserted that the drone attacks demonstrate Putin’s disregard for human life and the sanctity of Easter. Ukrainian air defenses were activated to counter the threat.
