Ukraine launches desperate call for civilians to flee the East

“It is necessary because the population will be under fire and death threats. They will not be able to do anything and we will not be able to help because it will be almost impossible to stop the fire.. It is necessary to evacuate while there is such a possibility,” he said in a statement.

Vereshchuk explained that the Ukrainian military forces deployed in these regions began to alert the residents and wanted to reassure the population by asserting that the government “is doing everything possible to ensure that the evacuation is organized.”

In this sense, he warned the population that “they must be prepared” for a new escalation of hostilities by Russia.

“The withdrawal of the occupying troops from the kyiv and Chernigov regions was not a gesture of goodwill before the next round of talks, as Russian officials try to present”, but a sign “of the iron will of our Army, Government and the entire Ukrainian people,” he stressed.

This Wednesday the opening of eleven new humanitarian corridors was also known, several of them from the city of Mariupol to Zaporizhia and also from Berdyansk to Zaporizhia, from where buses will be chartered to leave the region, reports Ukrinform.

On Monday, NATO had warned that Russia’s offensive would be concentrated in the Donbas region, where pro-Russian separatists are based.
