(Reuters) - Fighting continued in Russia's border regions of Kursk and Belgorod despite President Vladimir Putin's declaration of a Eastern ceasefire, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
"Kursk and Belgorod regions - Putin's Easter statements did not spread to this territory," Zelensky said in a social media post, referring to two Russian border regions where Ukrainian forces have made incursions. "Fighting continues, Russian strikes continue."
Zelensky did not provide evidence and Reuters could not independently verify the report.
