Russia will open new humanitarian corridors across multiple Ukrainian cities on Monday to allow civilians to evacuate.
The ceasefire will take place from 10:00 Moscow time (07:00 GMT) according to Russia’s defence ministry, with evacuation routes set up in the capital Kyiv, as well as Kharkiv, Mariupol and Sumy.
Over the weekend, two efforts to open a route to allow civilians to evacuate from Mariupol in the country’s south-east collapsed. Russia and Ukraine traded accusations for the failure.
