A phone conversation, explosions in Russia and the truce that endures in Oleshky

A rare ceasefire continues in Oleshky, Ukraine, allowing humanitarian aid amidst ongoing conflict. Ukraine attacked a chemical factory in Russia, while a Russian submarine launched an intercontinental ballistic missile. Norwegian and Finnish leaders spoke with Putin to discuss the war's future, despite criticism from allies. The ceasefire aims to facilitate civilian evacuations, although returning to Ukrainian-controlled areas is nearly impossible due to destroyed bridges. A significant portion of Oleshky's residents wish to stay, despite the dangers from drone attacks and mines. Russia reported intercepting numerous Ukrainian drones during the night.
