Russian forces killed several Ukrainian troops in an ambush in the city of Toretsk.
This was disclosed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a post on his X account on Easter Sunday.
Zelenskyy, who did not mention the number of Ukrainian troops killed, said: “In the Toretsk direction, our warriors, unfortunately, were caught in a Russian ambush. There are fatalities.”
According to the Ukrainian leader, those responsible for the attack will certainly be eliminated.
“The Russian military who committed this will be destroyed,” he vowed.
This development comes just days after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced what he described as an “Easter ceasefire” from April 19 to April 21.
Ukraine and Russia have been at war for over three years as of today.
Thousands of casualties have been recorded in both neighbouring countries.
