  "account": "In a remarkable humanitarian effort, civilians, including a 94-year-old and a one-year-old, were safely evacuated from the Russian-occupied town of Oleshky in occupied Kherson Oblast, Ukraine. This operation took place under the longest ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia since 2022. The delegation returning from the mission highlighted the success, praising the US First Lady Melania Trump for her assistance. The delegation worked closely with Ukrainian authorities to arrange the evacuations, ensuring families could wait in safe locations until the column arrived. The operation not only rescued individuals but also their beloved pets, including dogs, cats, a parrot, and a raccoon. Lubinets emphasized that saving lives must remain the top priority, and this mission could potentially serve as a model for future evacuations from other severely affected areas.",
  "summary": "For years, civilians in Russian-occupied Oleshky lived under shelling and drones, cut off from food and water. Ukraine has now evacuated them under the longest ceasefire since 2022, in a mission its ombudsman says was made possible by US First Lady Melania Trump.",
