Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is in Turkey, according to Le Monde.fr's live coverage of the war in Ukraine. The same reporting says residents of Oleshky who were evacuated on Friday have reached northern Ukraine.

Oleshky lies under Russian occupation, Le Monde.fr reports. According to the outlet, Russia's human rights commissioner said the humanitarian mission in the town has been completed.

Coverage cited by Le Monde.fr describes evacuees being welcomed by relatives once they arrived. One resident told Charente Libre, as referenced in that coverage, that the community had gone almost a year without food.

The reports do not specify the number of people evacuated, the route they took or the terms of the operation. Details of Zelensky's schedule in Turkey were also not provided in the material available.

The evacuation accounts and the Russian commissioner's statement describe the same operation from different sides, and Le Monde.fr's live coverage presents them without reconciling the two.

Watch for further reporting from Le Monde.fr on the outcome of Zelensky's visit to Turkey and on how many Oleshky residents have been relocated.
