With the evacuation from occupied Olesjky, Russians are trying to distract from major bombings on, among others, Dnipro

The temporary ceasefire in Olesjky, attributed to Melania Trump, allows humanitarian aid but raises propaganda concerns. Russian forces are using the situation to divert attention from ongoing bombardments in Dnipro. A convoy of buses and ambulances facilitated evacuations, while supplies were provided for those remaining. The ceasefire, effective until November 1, has led to a tense silence in the region, with residents still fearing attacks. Critics argue that Russia's humanitarian efforts are disingenuous, as they created the crisis. The media portrayal of Ukraine as the aggressor complicates perceptions, despite ongoing violence against civilians in other areas.
