Many modalities are possible, but it must take place in line with the parties’ obligations under the laws of war," Griffiths said. “Civilians in places like Mariupol, Kharkiv, Melitopol, and elsewhere desperately need aid, especially life-saving medical supplies. He then requested the need for “safe passage for humanitarian supplies into areas of active hostilities.”
All civilians, whether they stay or leave, must be respected and protected," he said. “This includes allowing safe passage for civilians to leave areas of active hostilities on a voluntary basis, in the direction they choose. Martin Griffiths said that the first priority is that parties “must take constant care to spare civilians and civilian homes and infrastructure in their military operations.”
The UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator outlined three immediate priorities in his speech to the UN Security Council Monday aimed at minimizing what he called the pain and suffering the whole world is watching unfold in Ukraine. The main purpose of the convoy is mainly “re-supply,” Kirby said. “We don’t assess over the course of the weekend that it has made any progress,” he added. There is “heavy fighting outside” of Kharkiv and “they are still attempting to encircle” the city of Chernihiv in the north, Kirby added.Ī large Russian military convoy outside of Kyiv is “still stalled, it is still stuck,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told reporters on Monday. The US does not see Russian forces taking control of Kyiv, the capital. So this is bombardment, missile strikes, long range artillery into city centers that they aren't in yet at least not on the ground in any significant number,” Kirby said. “What we assess is as they continue get frustrated, they continue to rely now more on what we would call long range fires.
Russian forces continue to rely more and more on “long-range fires,” including “bombardment, missile strikes, and long-range artillery into city centers,” the Pentagon press secretary said on Monday. “We believe they are very much aimed on taking Mariupol, Mariupol is a violent place to be right now, this is another location for long-range fires and bombardment,” Kirby added. The US also believes Russia is in control of the nuclear power plant near the Dnieper River, Kirby said. They have taken control of Kherson, a town on the coast of the Sea of Azov, and Berdyans’k, another coastal town, Kirby said. What is the latest with the Russian invasion of Ukraine: Russian forces continue to see more success in southern Ukraine. And we said before, when we deployed the additional 7,000, that there would be associated enablers with them. “These are specifically, the ones we’re talking about today, are enablers. “These are purely defensive forces,” Kirby said. ET Moscow time on Tuesday, ahead of the ceasefire starting at 10 a.m. Russia said it is offering to agree on the plan for the evacuation corridors with Ukraine by 3 a.m. Also, a humanitarian corridor will be opened from Mariupol along the two routes to the territory of Russia and Zaporizhie.” The Russian statement added that evacuation corridors "will also be open from Chernihiv through the territory of Belarus, from the city of Sumy along two routes to Poltava and to the territory of Russia, from Kharkiv to the territory of Russia or to Lviv, Uzhgorod, Ivano-Frankivsk. (Moscow time) on March 8, and is ready to provide humanitarian corridors: from Kyiv and adjacent settlements to the Russian Federation through the territory of the Republic of Belarus to Gomel," Russian media quotes the statement. "Russia declares a ceasefire from 10 a.m. Ukraine has yet to formally agree to the ceasefire proposal. ET Tuesday, which indicates it’s ready to open evacuation corridors from Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv and Mariupol, Russian media reports quoting the Russian Coordination Headquarters for Humanitarian Response in Ukraine. Russia has proposed a new ceasefire starting 10 a.m.
