The Russian Defense Ministry announced on Monday that it will declare a ceasefire in the conflict with Ukraine on May 8 and 9, to mark Victory Day.
"Pursuant to the decision of Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, a ceasefire is declared on May 8–9, 2026, to commemorate the Soviet people’s victory in the Great Patriotic War," the ministry said in a statement. It added that it expects Kiev to follow Moscow's example.
Earlier in the day, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said his country did not receive any proposal for a ceasefire, claiming that Russia aims to exploit the holiday, but after May 9, the situation could flare up again.
