Russian positions have been attacked numerous times by the Kievs forces, the Defense Ministry has said
The Russian military has been targeted more than 1,300 times by Ukrainian forces in the less than 24 hours since the declaration of an Easter truce by both sides, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said earlier that the pause in hostilities would be in effect from 6:00pm Moscow time on Saturday, and last until midnight on Monday. He instructed the country's military to stay on high alert and be ready "to respond to any violations or provocations." Ukraine's Vladimir Zelensky answered a few hours later that Kiev's forces "will act in a reciprocal way."
