Zelensky expects American delegation, Russia and Ukraine accuse each other of ceasefire violations
Videos
Russia and Ukraine accused each other on Friday of violating the two-day ceasefire that Moscow unilaterally declared on the occasion of celebrations of the 81st anniversary of victory over Nazi Germany. Zelensky stated that Russia carried out more than 140 attacks overnight and sent more than 850 drones over Ukraine, showing no effort to observe the ceasefire. Moscow, on the other hand, claimed it had neutralized 264 Ukrainian drones. Ukraine responded with an attack on the Slavneft-Yanos oil refinery in Yaroslavl, located approximately 250 kilometers northeast of Moscow. ta3.com ↗
President Zelensky warned Russia's allies against participating in the military parade in Moscow on May 9, noting that Russia is moving its best air defense weapons to the capital. Russia, in turn, warned foreign diplomats in Kyiv to urgently leave the city in case Ukraine disrupts the Victory Day celebrations, threatening "massive retaliation" against "decision-making centers" in Kyiv. hnonline.sk ↗
On Friday, testimonies from former prisoners about physical and psychological violence in Russian prisons in occupied territories, where Ukrainian soldiers and civilians faced brutal treatment, also became public. Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico plans to visit Moscow on May 9, where he will lay flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, but will not attend the military parade. He is expected to deliver messages from Zelensky. ta3.com ↗
