Ukraine calls on UN, Red Cross, OSCE to set up group of observers for work of humanitarian corridors

Ukraine has called on the UN, the International Committee of the Red Cross and the OSCE to create a group of observers for the work of humanitarian corridors, Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration Olha Stefanishyna said.

"Ukraine has proposed to the UN, the International Committee of the Red Cross and the OSCE to create a special group of international observers who will monitor the security situation around the delivery of humanitarian aid to the affected regions of Ukraine on the terms of preliminary agreements reached with Russia," the official said.

Stefanishyna noted that the situation around humanitarian corridors still remains difficult due to constant shelling from Russia.

"Even the fact that the convoys are moving under the auspices of the Red Cross does not stop the Russian army from shelling. We once again call on international organizations to ensure monitoring of the situation, facilitation of dialogue with Russia and countering the manipulations and horrific propaganda of the Russian Federation," Stefanishyna stressed.
