Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Russia does not deserve a lifting of sanctions following deadly overnight strikes in Ukraine. The attacks targeted Kyiv, Odesa, and Dnipro, with nearly 700 Russian drones and 19 ballistic missiles used. This comes after the end of a 32-hour Orthodox Easter truce, which was marred by accusations of mass violations from both countries.
