“The clearance of humanitarian cargo will take place at the Russian checkpoint Donetsk (from the Ukrainian side - Izvarino). On behalf of the President of Ukraine, employees of the border department and customs service went to the site to organize the passage of cargo,” reports the State Border Service of Ukraine.
The cargo will be cleared in the presence of OSCE representatives; the recipient of humanitarian aid is the International Committee of the Red Cross.
As Navigator reported, on August 12, a convoy of 280 white KAMAZ trucks with humanitarian aid left the Moscow region. Initially, it was planned to meet the column on the border of the Belgorod and Kharkov regions. However, the convoy did not reach the checkpoint in the Kharkov region, where Ukrainian border guards were supposed to inspect the contents of the KAMAZ vehicles, and turned east. The convoy stopped at an air base near Voronezh. Yesterday, August 14, the trucks hit the road again and stopped in the Rostov region.
