Reuters: Russia and Ukraine began a local ceasefire in Russian-occupied Olsheki on Tuesday to allow aid shipments and the evacuation of civilians amid acute shortages of food and medicine. Kiev confirmed that it was honoring the agreement, while Moscow said it had suspended shelling of Kherson. US First Lady Melania Trump helped mediate the settlement. Attacks continued elsewhere, including in Kyiv, where Russian attacks damaged transportation infrastructure. Ukrainian, Russian and US negotiators are expected to meet in Abu Dhabi in November.
