Ukraine's defense forces have been ordered to temporarily observe a ceasefire along the frontline from 00:00 September 5 to 23:59 September 8, according to Ukrainska Pravda. The order, reported by the outlet citing brigade sources and a senior security official, is a Ukrainian initiative. No ceasefire agreement with Russia had been reached as of publication, and an air raid alert was declared in Kyiv at midnight. The temporary truce precedes planned visits by US President Donald Trump's special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Moscow and Kyiv for peace talks. President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine would ensure "normal functioning of Russian airspace" during the September 5-6 visits.
