Kherson residents enjoy rare quiet under US-brokered ceasefire, fear renewed conflict

Kherson has experienced its first two days of quiet since many years under a US-brokered temporary ceasefire, allowing residents rare respite from constant Russian aerial attacks. While people have taken to streets and squares for ordinary activities, the pause is set to end on Sunday. Residents and officials fear Russia is using the lull to bolster forces and mine roads ahead of a renewed onslaught, potentially making the situation worse after the ceasefire expires.
