First Lady Secures Ceasefire for Oleshky Amid Humanitarian Crisis

Filed · 3 publisher pages · upstream origin unresolved

First Lady Melania Trump brokered a ceasefire in Oleshky, allowing humanitarian aid and civilian evacuation. The deal, effective October 29, aims to rescue 2,000 trapped residents facing dire conditions.

Ukraine and Russia confirmed the agreement, with Russia pledging to halt fire earlier. The ceasefire includes demining roads, delivering food, water, and medical supplies, and enabling safe passage for civilians.

The deal comes as U.S., Ukrainian, and Russian negotiators prepare for talks in Abu Dhabi, focusing on security and European involvement. Trump's pressure on Zelenskyy and concerns over diesel prices highlight ongoing tensions.

Ukraine's human rights ombudsman, Dmytro Lubinets, emphasized the 'extremely difficult' humanitarian operation, noting Russian forces have blocked aid and used civilians as shields, a war crime under international law.
