Is it normal that during a cease fire, not all troops have yet received the official order?

I know we are 2025. They should have perfect communication with the chain of command. But if you see the current state on how they are fighting...
(WW1 trench like state) i doubt it.

Maybe some local commanders still didn't received the orders? or with a delay?

I think in every war we know, there were ALWAYS broken deals during the cease fire.
Because of miscommunication or they just don't care. Or both sides find any good reason to ignore the cease fire (the other side did something suspicious)
If there is an official surrender, or a official peace deal. Everybody needs to stop shooting and release the POW's, but during a cease fire.
Especially a temporary cease fire. Both parties will always do things in there advantage.
And what is seen as a cease fire? Does supplying ammunition and reinforcing defensive positions fall under ''cease fire''?

''oh look its a temporary cease fire, but they are getting new ammunition, and they are preparing themselves for a next assault. Should we do something?''
''No,we have orders, its a cease fire, we just watch and do noting''

or
'' Screw the cease fire, we have a reason to shoot at them''

I never take these temporary cease fires for real. There is still a war going on. So you can never guarantee the cease fire.
Both sides Ukrainian military and Russian military will disrespect the cease fire.

The only good thing about a temporary cease fire, is that both sides have the time and safety to take care of there wounded.
