Ukraine Accuses Russia of Breaking Unilateral Ceasefire

Ukraine said Russia fired more than 100 drones and three missiles overnight, killing at least 27 people and injuring dozens before Kyiv’s ceasefire took effect.

  • On Wednesday, Ukraine reported that Russia violated Kyiv's unilateral ceasefire by launching 108 combat drones and three missiles at Ukrainian cities overnight, breaching the peace proposal that came into effect at midnight.
  • Moscow declared a ceasefire for Friday and Saturday to commemorate the allied victory over Nazi Germany in World War II; Kyiv rejected the timing, arguing human life is more valuable than any anniversary celebration.
  • Strikes across eastern Ukraine killed at least 27 people late Tuesday, including 12 in Zaporizhzhia, where City Council Secretary Rehina Kharchenko reported the enemy intentionally targeted rescue teams with Iranian-designed Shahed drones.
  • President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Kyiv would "act reciprocally" as Ukrainian forces launched F-5 Flamingo cruise missiles at military-industrial facilities in Cheboksary, located more than 1,500 kilometers inside Russian territory.
  • Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha condemned the attacks on social media, stating Russia rejects peace and calling on international partners to increase pressure through sanctions, isolation, and enhanced support for Ukraine.
