Donetsk militia to free trapped Ukrainian troops
Leaders of the self-proclaimed Donetsk
People's Republic are ready to provide humanitarian corridors for
encircled Kiev-loyal troops on condition of their disarmament.
According Itar-Tass, the Kremlin press service said earlier on Friday that Putin in his
address to militia of Novorossia (the Donetsk and Luhansk republics)
urged to let troops out of the encirclement to prevent unneeded
casualties. The president said many servicemen participated in the
Kiev-organized military operation in the southeast not on their own free
will but obeying the order.
He called on Kiev authorities to
immediately stop fighting and sit at the negotiating table with Donbass
representatives. The president pledged that Russia would continue
providing humanitarian aid for southeastern Ukrainian regions.
The Russian Emergency Situations Ministry sent a convoy of 262 trucks
with relief supplies for residents of the war-torn southeast of Ukraine
on August 12. The cargo contains some 2,000 metric tons of humanitarian
aid, including food (grain, sugar, baby food), medications, sleeping
bags and portable power generators.
The republic's Prime Minister Alexander Zakharchenko told Russia 24
Television on Friday that the republic's leaders supported Russian
President Vladimir Putin's initiative.
"With all due respect for Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, the president
of the country that is the first to support us morally, we are ready to
provide humanitarian corridors for encircled Ukrainian troops on
condition that they surrender heavy weapons and ammunition so that the
weaponry and ammunition would not be used against us," he said.
Putin's address
The presidential address reads as follows: "I am calling on militia
forces to open a humanitarian corridor for encircled Ukrainian
servicemen in order to avoid senseless casualties, enable them to get
out of the area of combat operations unimpededly and reunite with their
families; bring them back to their mothers, wives, and children, and
urgently to give medical aid to those wounded in the military
operation".Russia will continue to render humanitarian aid to the population of
Donbass, says an address, issued by Russian President Vladimir Putin, to
the militias of Ukraine's south-east. President stated, "The Russian
side is ready and will continue to provide humanitarian aid for the
population of Donbass who suffer from a humanitarian disaster".
Humanitarian aid
Troops loyal to Kiev and local militias in the southeastern Ukrainian
Donetsk and Luhansk regions are involved in fierce clashes as the
Ukrainian armed forces are conducting a military operation to regain
control over the breakaway territories, which on May 11 proclaimed their
independence at local referendums and now call themselves the Donetsk
and Luhansk People’s republics.During the military operation, conducted since mid-April, Kiev has
used armored vehicles, heavy artillery and attack aviation. Hundreds of
civilians have been killed in it. Many buildings have been destroyed and
hundreds of thousands of people have had to flee Ukraine’s embattled
southeast.
