Overview
- A 32-hour truce announced Thursday by the Kremlin will run from 4 p.m. on April 11 to the end of April 12.
- Putin ordered the general staff to halt combat in all directions during that window, with troops told to be ready for provocations.
- Zelenskyy earlier urged both sides to stop hitting energy sites over Easter, routing the offer through the United States.
- Kyiv had no immediate public response to Moscow’s decree.
- Similar short pauses, including last year’s 30-hour Easter truce, drew mutual violation claims as the war enters its fifth year along a roughly 1,250-kilometer front.
