'The city is alive': A brief peace in Kherson, but residents fear what comes next
- The Ukrainian city of Kherson has known its first two days of quiet after many years, as a US-brokered temporary ceasefire has allowed residents rare moments of respite from the constant Russian aerial attacks that plague the front line region.
- Videos posted on social media showed people strolling down streets covered in anti-drone nets and gathering in the city's squares - ordinary activities that usually mean keeping one eye on the sky and one ear out for incoming drones.
- "Ever since the ceasefire was announced, there's been total silence," said Olga, 42, speaking by phone from Kherson.
