Melania Trump's Ceasefire Expands Humanitarian Aid Access in Kherson
Melania Trump's brokered ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine has expanded to include the Kherson Region, allowing humanitarian aid to reach civilians in Oleshky. The ceasefire, which began on October 27, 2026, at 4:00 am Moscow time, was announced two days ahead of schedule to protect civilians and facilitate aid delivery. General Valery Vasilyevich, Russian Armed Forces Joint Chief, confirmed the expanded ceasefire area. The humanitarian crisis in Oleshky has reached critical levels, with residents turning to wild vegetation for sustenance. Kyiv estimates around 6,000 people, including 200 minors, remain in the area, down from 24,000 before the 2022 invasion. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov reported no ceasefire violations, while Ukraine's human rights commissioner stated the country is honoring its commitments.
