Russia Continues To Shell Bakhmut Despite Ceasefire | Russia Vs Ukraine War Update | English News
Shellfire echoed on Saturday around the near-deserted streets of the Ukrainian town of Bakhmut, the current focus of the most intense fighting in Russia's invasion of Ukraine…
This, is despite Moscow's declaration of a ceasefire for Eastern Orthodox Christmas.
Ukraine’s President Zelenskiy said on Saturday (January 7) that Russia’s call for a ceasefire had been ‘deceptive,’ adding shells had hit Bakhmut.
On Friday, Putin ordered a 36-hour ceasefire for Christmas celebrations.
Many Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas on Jan. 7, but the Russian Orthodox Church's backing for Moscow's war in Ukraine has angered many Ukrainian Orthodox believers and splintered the worldwide Orthodox Church.
