Ukraine has alleged that Russia violated a 72-hour ceasefire declared by President Vladimir Putin, meant to precede Russia’s annual May 9 military parade.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha criticized the ceasefire as a “farce,” highlighting continued attacks despite a reduction in drone and missile strikes.
