Russia and Ukraine agreed Friday to a temporary ceasefire in the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky, intended to let humanitarian aid in and residents evacuate. The White House said first lady Melania Trump secured the truce. Her senior advisor, Marc Beckman, said Russia has since agreed to extend the ceasefire by two days and expand it to a broader area of Ukraine's Kherson region; this extension has not been confirmed by Russian or Ukrainian officials.
