Russia's war against Ukraine
Oleshky humanitarian mission begins — but can Russia be trusted after overnight Kyiv strike?
Ukraine’s military intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov has confirmed the start of a humanitarian mission in occupied Oleshky, with evacuations and aid deliveries under a reported “silence regime” allegedly mediated by Melania Trump. Yet hours before the announcement, Russia struck Kyiv with ballistic missiles, killing one person and damaging the Pivdennyi Bridge, a hospital and Lisova metro station. No independent evidence of the evacuation has emerged, and Moscow has said nothing.
