Confusion over possible ceasefire: Ukraine's army has not been ordered to hold fire
While US sources speak of a possible ceasefire deal for September 5-8, a source in the Ukrainian president's office says the armed forces have not received any order to stop fighting along the front line.
Uncertainty surrounds a possible ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine war. Ukrainian public broadcaster "Suspilne" reports that Ukraine's defense forces have not received any order to halt fighting anywhere along the front line, citing a source within the Ukrainian president's office.
Conflicting signals from the US
At the same time, US sources are reporting something different — suggesting a possible agreement on a ceasefire that could be in effect from September 5 to 8. However, the exact terms and scope of any such agreement remain unclear. It is not known whether this would mean a full ceasefire along the entire front, or a more limited arrangement covering only certain areas or types of military activity.
This discrepancy between Ukraine's official position and what US sources are reporting suggests that any negotiation process toward a ceasefire has not yet been finalized, or at least has not been publicly confirmed by all parties involved. The situation remains fluid, and further information is expected in the coming days that could clarify whether — and in what form — a ceasefire might actually take effect.
