Russian troops immediately broke ceasefire regime announced by Zelenskyy: Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia oblasts under attack

Russian forces break Zelenskyy’s ceasefire in first minutes

Russian occupation forces violated the ceasefire regime announced by Volodymyr Zelenskyy in its first minutes after it took effect at midnight on 6 May, launching attacks on Ukraine with attack drones and guided aerial bombs.

This is evidenced by the air-raid alert map, as well as reports from local media and the Air Force, Censor.NET informs.

In particular, after midnight, the Air Force reported a drone threat to Kharkiv Oblast. UAVs were detected near Izium, Balakliia and Kharkiv.

There was also a threat to Zaporizhzhia and Pavlohrad.

In the morning, the enemy struck an industrial infrastructure facility in Zaporizhzhia Oblast with guided aerial bombs.

After 6 a.m., Kharkiv came under enemy attack.

Thus, Russian troops are once again demonstrating their disregard for ceasefire agreements.

Ceasefire for May 9

  • As reported earlier, on 29 April, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin held a phone call with US President Donald Trump that lasted more than an hour and a half.
  • During the call, Putin announced Russia’s readiness for a ceasefire with Ukraine for "Victory Day," which is celebrated in Russia on 9 May.
  • Trump said he had proposed "a little bit of a ceasefire" in the war against Ukraine to the dictator.
  • For his part, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stressed that the Kremlin’s proposal for a ceasefire on "Victory Day" on 9 May reflects Russian dictator Putin’s desire to hold the military parade "calmly" and then resume attacks.
  • On 4 May, Russia unilaterally announced a ceasefire for 8 and 9 May. Russia’s Ministry of Defense said it expected the Ukrainian side to "follow" its example. If Ukraine launches a strike "with the aim of disrupting Victory Day celebrations," Russian forces will "launch a retaliatory strike on central Kyiv."
  • At the same time, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukraine was declaring a ceasefire from midnight on the night of 5-6 May and would respond in kind if the truce was violated.
