Russia, Ukraine say Oleshky demining operations complete, humanitarian operation to proceed
The convoy will deliver food and medicine as residents who want to leave can evacuate under a ceasefire brokered by Melania Trump.
- On Tuesday, a US-brokered truce began in Russian-occupied Oleshky, allowing humanitarian aid delivery and civilian evacuations coordinated by First Lady Melania Trump and Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmytro Lubinets through November 1.
- Russia has occupied Oleshky since 2022, reducing its prewar population of roughly 24,000 to about 2,000 residents who now face severe shortages of food and medicine across the Dnipro River from Kherson.
- Evacuees wishing to reach Ukraine must first travel to Anapa in Russia before flying to Gomel, Belarus, according to the agreement signed October 23 by Lubinets and Russian counterpart Yana Lantratova.
- Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War warned Russia could use the truce to rebuild forces in Kherson Oblast, while observers expressed concern about potential so-called "filtration."
- A Ukrainian delegation led by Lubinets is scheduled to depart Anapa for Gomel on October 31, aiming to establish systematic monthly aid and repatriation operations with support from the First Lady.
