Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russia broke its 30-hour Easter truce more than 2,000 times. He claimed there were 67 attacks, over 1,300 shellings, and 673 drone strikes. In response, Zelenskyy offered a deal: Ukraine would pause long-range missile strikes on civilian sites for 30 days, if Russia agrees. He said if Russia refuses, it proves they want to keep the war going. The UK confirmed RAF jets stopped Russian planes near NATO airspace. The US welcomed a truce extension, but Russia hasn’t agreed. Many fear the ceasefire was just a show with no real effort for peace. (PC: Reuters)
