Evacuation from Oleshky: How are preparations going?
Preparations for evacuating residents from Oleshky, Ukraine, are underway following a ceasefire. The town has been under Russian occupation since 2022, and residents face dire conditions. The Save Ukraine Foundation has rescued civilians and is coordinating evacuation efforts, which are complicated by mined routes and security concerns. Approximately 500 people may be evacuated, but the process will take time due to mine clearance and the need for medical assistance. Melania Trump’s involvement has drawn attention to the humanitarian crisis in Oleshky, which is described as genocide by the Russian Federation.
