Details: Despite Putin’s announcement of a so-called "Christmas truce", supported also by Russia’s Ministry of Defence, the air raid siren sounded all across Ukraine on 6 January, meaning that children had to hide in freezing cold bomb shelters - and the Russians launched an attack on a fire station in Kherson.
Quote: "6 January. Air alert all over Ukraine. Children are in cold bomb shelters again. A fire station was hit in Kherson. This is the essence of the Russian ‘truce’. They stab you in the back while imitating peace.
So – never…
Never take Russia’s words seriously. It is always a primitive and cynical deception."
