The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said it is getting ready to aid the safe passage of civilians from the besieged Ukrainian port city of Mariupol on Friday, APA reports citing CNN.
“Our teams are traveling right now with pre-positioned relief items and medical supplies to be ready to facilitate the safe passage of civilians out of Mariupol,” the ICRC said in a statement.
“For logistics and security reasons, we’ll be ready to lead the safe passage operation tomorrow, Friday, provided all the parties agree to the exact terms, including the route, the start time, and the duration.”
“It is desperately important that this operation takes place. The lives of tens of thousands of people in Mariupol depend on it,” the ICRC added.
Ukrainian officials said Thursday an evacuation corridor had been agreed with the Russians.
