Oleshky evacuations proceed under truce as strikes continue elsewhere and US OKs Patriot sale

On Friday, residents of Russian-occupied Oleshky began leaving during a rare US-brokered local ceasefire, and an aid convoy entered the town. Elsewhere the fighting went on: Russia said it struck energy infrastructure in and around Kyiv, and Russian authorities said they intercepted more than 1,000 Ukrainian drones overnight, with an oil refinery struck. Late on Friday the US approved the sale of 500 Patriot interceptor missiles to Ukraine.

• Residents of Oleshky have left for Anapa in Russia with a Ukrainian delegation, according to official David Arakhamia, and are expected to fly to Belarus and then travel by bus to Ukraine. Moscow and Kyiv have so far observed the six-day truce.
• On Wednesday a Russian drone strike on a Dnipro railway station killed at least 13 people. President Zelensky called it horrific and said it demands a response from Ukraine's allies.
• The US State Department called the approach of Russia's Cosmos-2612 satellite to Ukraine's Iceye-X36 satellite "threatening". A Greek container ship sank off Bulgaria on October 28 after being hit by three drones, potentially of Russian origin.
• European foreign ministers refused to pose with Russia's Sergei Lavrov, so the G20 family photo in Atlanta was cancelled.
