- Kubectl/drain: add disable-eviction option.Force drain to use delete, even if eviction is supported. This will bypass checking PodDisruptionBudgets, and should be used with caution.

* Fix metrics API group name in audit configuration ([#53493](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53493), [@piosz](https://github.com/piosz))
* Use separate client for leader election in scheduler to avoid starving leader election by regular scheduler operations. ([#53793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53793), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

- Fixed an issue where `StatefulSet` might not restart a pod after eviction or node failure. ([#120398](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120398), [@aleksandra-malinowska](https://github.com/aleksandra-malinowska))

- Fixed a bug where dry-run is not honored for pod/eviction sub-resource. ([#76969](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76969), [@apelisse](https://github.com/apelisse))

  - PreemptionByKubeScheduler (Pod preempted by kube-scheduler)
  - DeletionByTaintManager (Pod deleted by taint manager due to NoExecute taint)
  - EvictionByEvictionAPI (Pod evicted by Eviction API)
  - DeletionByPodGC (an orphaned Pod deleted by PodGC) ([#110959](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/110959), [@mimowo](https://github.com/mimowo))

- Fixed two regressions introduced by the PodDisruptionConditions feature (on by default in 1.26):
  - pod eviction API calls returned spurious precondition errors and required a second evict API call to succeed

* Eviction thresholds set to 0% or 100% will turn off eviction. ([#59681](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59681), [@mtaufen](https://github.com/mtaufen))
