On April 19, 2025, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared a pause in hostilities in Ukraine for Easter. This ceasefire is effective from 1800 on April 19 to 0000 on April 21, as confirmed by the Kremlin. However, Putin remains vigilant, asserting that Russian forces will be ready to counter any aggressive acts from the Ukrainian military. This move continues amidst ongoing tensions since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, with the Kremlin referring to the situation as a 'special military operation.'
The Russian president has declared an Easter truce. During a meeting in the Kremlin, the supreme commander-in-chief heard a report by Valery Gerasimov, chief of the general staff of the Russian armed forces, on the situation on the line of contact and said that the Russian side stops all hostilities from 1800 on April 19 to 0000 on April 21.
But he said Russian troops would be ready to repel any 'aggressive actions' by the Ukrainian military.
