CNN visits Ukrainian monitoring center as Russian ceasefire due to begin

The Kremlin says Russian forces are observing a ceasefire in Ukraine, after Russian President Putin instructed his troops to begin a three-day pause at midnight. Ukrainian President Zelensky says Moscow’s announcement is a stunt and has continued his call for an immediate 30-day ceasefire. CNN’s Nick Paton Walsh was granted exclusive access to a monitoring center in eastern Ukraine overnight and captured the moment Russia’s unilateral ceasefire was due to begin.
