The Armed Forces of Ukraine will ensure that decisions regarding the humanitarian mission in Oleshky are carried out

The Ukrainian Armed Forces will ensure the implementation of decisions regarding the humanitarian mission in the temporarily occupied town of Oleshky in the Kherson region. “The Ukrainian Armed Forces will ensure the implementation of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief’s decisions to carry out the humanitarian mission in Oleshky. The relevant orders will be communicated to the troops in accordance with established procedures,” the General Staff’s statement reads.

This means that Ukrainian units will receive the necessary orders to carry out their assigned tasks. At the same time, the General Staff’s statement did not specify when exactly the mission will begin or what specific measures it will entail.

Aid has already been delivered to residents via drones

Further steps will depend on the orders received and the ability to ensure humanitarian access to the city’s residents. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine published a corresponding statement on its Telegram channel.
