Quote: “At this stage, it is a dispute over a few square kilometres of territory in one direction or another.”

“It is indeed just a matter of a few kilometres… roughly speaking, there is 18-17% of the Donetsk People’s Republic [as the Kremlin refers to Donetsk Oblast] that remains for us to liberate [occupy], and this would mean reaching the administrative borders.”

Details: Peskov promised that the war will continue after the Easter ceasefire.

Background: Ukraine’s General Staff reported as of the morning of 12 April, 2,299 violations of the ceasefire regime, which began at 16:00 the previous day, had been recorded.
