 * [CHANGE] Server: Instrument `cortex_request_duration_seconds` metric with native histogram. If `native-histograms` feature is enabled in monitoring Prometheus then the metric name needs to be updated in your dashboards. #6056
 * [CHANGE] Distributor/Ingester: Change `cortex_distributor_ingester_appends_total`, `cortex_distributor_ingester_append_failures_total`, `cortex_distributor_ingester_queries_total`, and `cortex_distributor_ingester_query_failures_total` metrics to use the ingester ID instead of its IP as the label value. #6078
 * [FEATURE] Ingester: Experimental: Enable native histogram ingestion via `-blocks-storage.tsdb.enable-native-histograms` flag. #5986
+* [FEATURE] Ruler: Add support for filtering out alerts in ListRules API. #6011
 * [FEATURE] Query Frontend: Added a query rejection mechanism to block resource-intensive queries. #6005
 * [FEATURE] OTLP: Support ingesting OTLP exponential metrics as native histograms. #6071
 * [FEATURE] Ingester: Add `ingester.instance-limits.max-inflight-query-requests` to allow limiting ingester concurrent queries. #6081
