Kyiv region

Ukraine's Kherson regional administration has published footage of an operation delivering four tonnes of food to civilians in Oleshky, a town in Russian-occupied Kherson oblast, where residents are reportedly facing food shortages. The delivery underscores the dire humanitarian conditions in occupied territory near the Dnipro delta and Kyiv's continued efforts to reach civilians cut off by the front line.

Ukraine has raised the alarm over conditions in Oleshky, a Ukrainian city in Kherson region under Russian occupation since 2022. According to Ukrainian officials, civilians trapped there are being deliberately starved and forced to eat grass to survive. Kyiv is calling for international attention, framing the situation as a war crime, and drawing attention to the plight of residents in occupied territories.
