Ukraine not to start customs clearance of Russian humanitarian cargo without documents from ICRC - NSDC

Ukrainian experts haven't started formal procedures for accepting the Russian humanitarian cargo at Donetsk border crossing checkpoint in Rostov region, as the International Committee of the Red Cross has not yet provided documents describing the cargo, the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine has said.

"The Ukrainian side has sent its experts - border guards and customs officers there (to the Donetsk checkpoint on the Russian border). They are ready to start clearing the cargo, the working places have been prepared. However, our representatives have not received any documents from the International Committee of the Red Cross about the cargo. Once these papers are received, the border guards and customs officers will start the clearance of the goods," spokesman for the information and analytical center of the National Security and Defense Council Andriy Lysenko said at a briefing on Friday.
