December 25, 1914 - Just after midnight on Christmas morning, German troops at the front in World War I ceased firing their guns and artillery, and began to sing Christmas carols. At the first light of dawn, many of the German soldiers emerged from their trenches and approached the Allied lines across no man's land, calling out "Merry Christmas" in their enemies' native tongues.
At first the Allied soldiers suspected it to be a trick, but they soon climbed out of their trenches and shook hands with the German soldiers. The men exchanged presents of cigarettes and plum puddings; the fighting didn’t resume in earnest for several days, and then only at the insistence of the generals.

There was *another* #ChristmasTruce
(snip)
Fritz Vicken, a 12 year old boy in December 1944, told the story of he and his mother spending Christmas Eve in a cottage in the Huertgen forest after their home in Aachen had been destroyed.
Separate small groups of first American then German soldiers, each with wounded comrades, knocked on the door seeking refuge and were accepted.
Although they all could have been executed for fraternization, they shared a meal of chicken, potatoes, rye bread and wine. The next day they shook hands and departed in the direction of their separate armies.

На Рождество Христово христиане России продолжат убивать своих братьев по вере.
Путин отказался от рождественского перемирия, об этом он заявил на "прямой линии".Сегодня утром Россия нанесла удар по Киеву пятью баллистическими ракетами типа «Искандер-М». Пострадали здания шести дипломатических представительств (Албании, Аргентины, Палестины, Северной Македонии, Португалии и Черногории) и Костел Святого Николая.
Обломки сбитых ракет нанесли ущерб и разрушения в пяти районах столицы. Мэр Киева Виталий Кличко заявил, что в результате атаки было ранено 9 человек, из них четверо были отправлены в реанимацию. Один убит.
Было повреждено теплоснабжение 630 жилых домов, 16 лечебных заведений, 17 школ и 13 детских садов. Из них без отопления и горячей воды все еще остаются 18 домов, одна больница и 13 ведомственных построек.**Ссылки на авторитетные медиа:**

And today we're all brothers
Tonight we're all friends
A moment of peace in a war that never ends
Today we're all brothers
We drink and unite
Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground whiteA Christmas on the frontline
We walk among our friends
We don't think about tomorrow
The battle will commence
When we celebrated Christmas
We thought about our friends
Those who never made it home
When the battle had commenced#Sabaton #HeavyMetal #WWI #ChristmasTruce

Such a powerful #narration by #PeterCapaldi of a letter by Captain #ReginaldJohnArmes describing the #ChristmasTruce during First #WorldWar, as part of #LettersLive: https://youtu.be/ZQgR1h2Rogg
I've heard of and read about that brief truce during #WW1 before, but never this first hand account of it. Most notably probably for me is the song by #Sabaton: https://youtu.be/HPdHkHslFIU

At 10pm EST on Christmas Eve, Repairers of the Breach will host “No War: A Moral Call for A Christmas Truce.” The call is similar to the Christmas Truce that occurred spontaneously on the front lines of World War I in 1914.

"Se una tregua spontanea fu possibile nel 1914, oggi le autorità politiche e i Governi dei paesi europei potrebbero imporre una tregua di #Natale ai due contendenti come viatico per un cessate il fuoco permanente che apra la strada alla ricerca di una pace giusta e onorevole per tutte le parti in causa."
