Ukraine’s government said on Monday that it is planning eight humanitarian corridors for citizens fleeing the country’s conflict.
The routes would be utilized for buses to evacuate and provide relief, according to Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk.
People are to be transported from the besieged port city of Mariupol to the south-eastern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhya, according to Vereshchuk.
