Zelensky: Fighting ongoing in Russian border regions despite Putin’s Easter ceasefire declaration
Fighting continues in Russia’s border regions of Kursk and Belgorod despite President Vladimir Putin’s declaration of an Easter ceasefire, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky charges.
“Kursk and Belgorod regions — Putin’s Easter statements did not spread to this territory,” Zelenskiy says in a social media post, referring to two Russian border regions where Ukrainian forces have made incursions. “Fighting continues, Russian strikes continue.”
Zelensky does not provide evidence and Reuters cannot independently verify the report.
