In Ukraine, humanitarian mission in occupied Oleshky hides growing fear of Russian military operation

Ukraine and Russia have launched a coordinated humanitarian operation to deliver food, medical supplies, and other essentials to residents of Russian-occupied Oleshky in southern Ukraine, while offering civilians the opportunity to evacuate. The mission, prepared after weeks of negotiations and completed demining along designated routes, is being coordinated by the two countries’ human rights commissioners, Dmytro Lubinets and Yana Lantratova, with mediation from US First Lady Melania Trump.
