Trump announces three-day Ukraine-Russia ceasefire

U.S. President Donald Trump announced Friday that Ukraine and Russia have agreed to observe a three-day truce starting Saturday and a mutual swap of 1,000 prisoners each.

Trump posted on social media that the truce on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday would hopefully be "the beginning of the end of a very long, deadly, and hard fought War."

Russia had previously announced a two-day unilateral ceasefire to mark its May 9 World War II Victory Day on Saturday. Ukraine previously stated that it too had offered a truce, but that this had been ignored by Moscow.
