Former CIA station chief Dan Hoffman joins'Fox News Live' to discuss Russian President Vladimir Putin's announcement of a ceasefire in Ukraine on Easter Day. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed skepticism over Russian President Vladimir Putin's announcement Saturday that Russia would observe a temporary ceasefire during the Easter holiday. After the announcement, Zelenskyy posted on X that air raid alerts were ringing out across Ukraine, adding that Russian attack drones were detected in the skies. "Shahed drones in our skies reveal Putin's true attitude toward Easter and toward human life," he wrote. The Kremlin on Saturday shared a video in which Putin said, "Guided by humanitarian considerations, today from 18:00 to 00:00, from Sunday to Monday, the Russian side declares an Easter truce.'"
