Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered Moscow’s armed forces to observe a 36-hour ceasefire in Ukraine this weekend for the Russian Orthodox Christmas holiday, the first such sweeping truce move in the nearly 11-month-old war.

Kyiv indicated it would not follow suit.

Mr Putin did not appear to make his ceasefire order conditional on a Ukrainian agreement to follow suit, and it was not clear whether hostilities would actually halt on the 1,100-kilometre (684-mile) front line.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky dismissed the Russian move as playing for time to regroup its invasion forces and prepare additional attacks.

I don't think the Nazis should be given a moment's rest.
