Extraordinary scenes right now in Russian-held Oleshky, Ukraine's human rights ombudsman is chatting with local residents. Evacuation from the frontline city should begin very soon, Ukrainian MP said this morning 527 people have asked to go back to Ukrainian-controlled territory.
We are in Oleshky! The Ukrainian delegation has safely reached the city.
The ceasefire has been in effect for 80 hours and remains in place. I am currently on the ground, speaking with local residents to hear about their needs and understand what kind of assistance they need most.
I will share more details later.
This work is being carried out in accordance with the agreements reached with Russia’s Commissioner for Human Rights, Yana Lantratova, with the support and coordination of U.S. First Lady Melania Trump @FLOTUS
