Was October 27, 2026 a ceasefire in Ukraine?
YES
Yes, sort of: a local truce in the occupied city of Oleshky began today, but the wider war continues.
Why
- Truce began 3am Kyiv time Tuesday, brokered with Melania Trump's help
- Russia said it halted shelling toward Oleshky; Kyiv said it was honouring its commitments
- Russian missile and drone attacks on other Ukrainian cities continued overnight
