Three trucks with humanitarian aid from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) have entered the parts of Donetsk and Luhansk regions not under the control of the government (ORDLO), eastern Ukraine.
“Three trucks with humanitarian aid from the International Committee of the Red Cross passed through the Novotroyitske checkpoint. Some 37.2 tonnes of hygiene kits were delivered to residents of the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine,” the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine said.
The service recalled that entry-exit checkpoints operate daily from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.. “However, traffic in most of the humanitarian road corridors is blocked from the side of the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine,” the message says.
Thus, of the seven open checkpoints, a full-fledged pass is carried out only in Stanytsia Luhanska. During the week, passenger traffic in it has decreased by 6%.
Opposite the Novotroyitske checkpoint, the Russia-backed separatists unblocked the movement only on Sept. 20.
