The Easter truce between Ukraine and Russia just started. It runs from 16:00 on April 11 to the end of April 12.

Ukraine’s General Staff says it will observe the Easter truce and respond only in kind.

An hour after the truce began, Russian propagandists predictably claim "Ukraine broke it by hitting Nova Kakhovka."

SBU drones are winning at tag with Russian occupiers.

An air raid alert was declared in part of Ukraine’s Sumy region. An alert was also declared in Russia’s Kursk region.

A Ukrainian FPV drone scored a beautiful hit on a Russian UAZ Bukhanka. At least two troops fell out of the burning vehicle while it was moving.

A fire is burning at the Gagarin aircraft plant in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. Preliminary info says a workshop that makes auxiliary assemblies critical for serial production is on fire.

According to OSINT analysts CyberBoroshno, the fire at KnAAZ was in Shop 46, which makes composite parts for the Su-57. Damage there could directly halt or slow serial Su-57 production.

Moldova has formally quit the Commonwealth of Independent States. President Maia Sandu signed decrees denouncing the Charter and core treaties, published in Monitorul Oficial and now in force.

Easter should be a time of safety and peace; Ukraine will mirror any violations and has proposed to Russia that the ceasefire continue, Zelensky says.

He adds Ukraine hopes to continue POW exchanges soon and is searching every name.

Russia says Ukraine tried to drone hit Plesetsk during a satellite launch. Roscosmos boss Dmitry Bakanov told Putin this ahead of Cosmonautics Day.

Oko Gora analysts say the Easter truce has cut overall activity almost to zero on quiet sectors, but limited infantry assaults and FPV flights plus Lancets, Molniis and some artillery continue on active fronts. No Shaheds, KABs or ballistic launches, MLRS mostly quiet.
