Russia-Ukraine Easter truce violations

Despite the Kremlin-declared lull in major missile strikes, drone and artillery activity continued along the 1,200-kilometre front line.

Ukrainian officials recorded over 2,200 breaches, while Russia claimed nearly 2,000 violations by Kyiv's forces.

The expiration of the truce marks a return to full-scale hostilities as both nations signal a lack of trust in future diplomatic pauses.

International observers noted that while long-range strikes were reduced, the brutal ground war remained largely unchanged during the holiday period.
