Residents of the Russian-occupied town of Oleshky have arrived in Ukraine and reunited with family members after months of isolation, Al Jazeera reports. The evacuees are described as starved and exhausted.
The source text is very brief and gives no details about the evacuation: it does not say how many people left, how the journey took place or who organised it. What is clear is that not everyone has left the town, as some residents have stayed behind in Oleshky.
No further information about conditions in the town or the circumstances of the evacuation is available in the source.
