Zelenskyy says Russia trying to create ‘impression of a ceasefire’ as attacks continue

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused Russia of creating a false appearance of honouring an Easter ceasefire, saying Moscow continued to launch attacks overnight after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a unilateral temporary truce in Ukraine.

This Midwestern city has long been a federal hub. The pain from DOGE’s cuts is everywhere

In her 28 years working for the federal government, Shea Giagnorio provided daycare for the children of US soldiers, training for employees and oversight for safety net programs. Public service took her from Germany to Alaska to Kansas City, Missouri, where she moved last year for a long-sought promotion.
