The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky called on Thursday for participants in the conflict to adhere to the ceasefire, which begins at noon on Saturday.
According to him, this decision is aimed at preventing morning attacks and facilitating the onset of peace. "I call on everyone to adhere to the ceasefire, starting from February 27," Zelensky said.
He also added that the five-month war has already taken the lives of more than 14,000 people, and it is time to end this senseless and tragic conflict.
"We cannot wait while more people die," Zelensky said. "We must do everything possible to avoid more loss of life. Peace is our future."
