Ukraine and Russia resumed overnight drone strikes on Monday, April 13, following the end of a 32-hour Orthodox Easter ceasefire that both sides accused each other of repeatedly violating. Russia launched 98 drones at Ukraine, according to the Ukrainian air force, which said its air defences intercepted 87 of them. The swift return to hostilities underscores the fragility of short-term truces in the conflict, with brief pauses doing little to build momentum toward a broader ceasefire.
