Ombudsman's Office denies reports Russian occupation forces have begun evacuating Oleshky residents
The Office of the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights refutes reports that Russian occupiers have begun evacuating residents of the town of Oleshky in Kherson region, without waiting for the announced arrival of representatives of the American media and teams from both the Ukrainian and Russian human rights commissioners.
The humanitarian mission to the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky in Ukraine's Kherson Oblast has advanced significantly, with mine clearance completed and a prepared convoy poised to deliver aid, according to Ukraine's Human Rights Commissioner Dmytro Lubinets on October 29th. The mission, coordinated with a localized ceasefire initiated by US First Lady Melania Trump, aims to provide essential supplies and a safe exit route for civilians trapped in the city.
Upon arrival, Lubinets stated that humanitarian support would be distributed to those in need, with civilians able to depart until 2 p.m. local time. The negotiations were described as arduous, but Lubinets emphasized the urgency of the mission, stating that he would return to Oleshky for any individual in need.
