The ceasefire enabled evacuations of children and people with limited mobility as the six-day pause in fighting neared expiry, officials said.
- On Sunday, the Ukrainian military evacuated 167 civilians from the Kherson region as the six-day local ceasefire in the Russian-held town of Oleshky neared its expiry at midnight Moscow time.
- First Lady Melania Trump and Pope Leo XIV brokered the six-day truce, enabling a humanitarian mission that provided residents with food, medicine, and clean water during the pause in fighting.
- Evacuees included 22 children and 21 people with limited mobility, transported via 25 buses and nine ambulances in a coordinated operation between military and local authorities.

- Military action persisted elsewhere on Sunday, with strikes reported in the Sumy and Vinnytsia regions, indicating broader conflict continues despite the localized pause in the south.
