Melania Trump’s Ukraine ceasefire clings on as humanitarian aid arrives
A six-day ceasefire in the Ukrainian city of Oleshky continues to hold as humanitarian aid is expected to arrive on Friday
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on the same narrow frame: a ceasefire in Oleshky and the arrival or expected arrival of humanitarian aid. The Independent emphasizes that the six-day ceasefire is still holding, while BBC News foregrounds the question of whether Melania Trump brokered it and says the ceasefire has come into effect; only the BBC extract specifically names her as the broker.
