Zelensky announced a “silence regime” starting May 6. This was his response to the May 8-9 ceasefire announced by Putin

“We consider human life a value incomparably greater than the ‘celebration’ of any anniversary. In this connection, we are announcing a silence regime starting at 00:00 on the night of May 5-6. We will act symmetrically starting from the specified moment. It is time for Russia’s leaders to take real steps to end their war, if the Russian Ministry of Defense itself believes it will not hold a parade in Moscow without Ukraine’s goodwill,” Zelensky wrote on Telegram.

He added that Ukraine had not received any official appeals from Russia regarding the “modality of the cessation of hostilities.”
