Zelensky: Crimea will return to Ukraine, perhaps through diplomatic means

Russia has violated a recently announced Easter ceasefire more than 400 times since it took effect at 4:00 p.m. local time, Ukraine's General Staff said April 11.

Ukrainian armed forces said they struck two oil facilities overnight on April 11, targeting the Krymskaya oil pumping station in Russia's Krasnodar Krai and the Gvardiyskaya oil depot in occupied Crimea.

In his Daily Mail article, ex-U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson describes the harsh realities faced by Ukrainian soldiers and civilians, while also criticizing Western partners for their lack of support for Ukraine.

"This is the true cost of Russia’s talk of 'truce' — they came here to kill and destroy. They don’t want peace," Governor Vadym Filashkin said.

"Ukraine will adhere to the ceasefire and respond strictly in kind. The absence of Russian strikes in the air, on land, and at sea will mean no response from our side," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

Most of those released had been in Russian captivity since 2022, President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

According to the report, at least 211 people were killed in March, and 1,206 were injured.

Ukrainian forces downed 133 out of the 160 drones, including Shahed-type attack drones, launched by Russia overnight, the Air Force reported.

The number includes 1,440 casualties that Russian forces suffered over the past day.

Russia has designated at least 19 Western universities as "undesirable" organizations, exposing individuals linked to the schools — including students — to a possible four-year prison sentence.

"My Administration stands ready to use the full Economic Might of the United States to strengthen Hungary's Economy, as we have done for our Great Allies in the past, if Prime Minister Viktor Orban and the Hungarian People ever need it."

Estonia will not detain Russian shadow fleet vessels in the Baltic Sea due to concerns about military escalation, a senior naval commander told Reuters on April 10.
