Ukrainian authorities say Russian drone and missile strikes during the night and into daylight hours have killed at least 22 people and wounded more than 80 others. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Tuesday criticized Moscow for launching the attacks after Russia announced a temporary unilateral ceasefire for later this week. Russia’s Defense Ministry declared a ceasefire for Friday and Saturday. But it warned of retaliation if Kyiv disrupts Victory Day festivities. Ukrainian forces have also continued their attacks on Russian areas by targeting oil facilities. Russia said that it destroyed 289 Ukrainian drones overnight across 18 regions. Both sides remain deeply mistrustful of each other, which is complicating ceasefire efforts.
