KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian drone strikes killed at least two people and wounded two others in the Ukrainian city of Odesa overnight into Saturday, hitting a residential area. The attacks came hours before a 32-hour Easter ceasefire declared by Russian President Vladimir Putin was due to take effect. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukraine was ready to mirror any ceasefire steps. Previous truces have had little impact, with both sides accusing each other of violations. A possible prisoner exchange over the Easter holiday has also been discussed.
