Ukraine plans to create a "security zone" for the movement of people, according to the Minister of Reintegration of Ukraine Iryna Vereshchuk in her telegram channel.
"In order to protect the border areas of Ukraine (primarily the border areas of Sumy region), the Ukrainian Defense Forces are creating a security zone on the territory of Russia adjacent to the territory of Ukraine," she wrote.
She mentioned "humanitarian operations" and "opening humanitarian corridors for the evacuation of civilians," among the measures that will be taken. The Minister also announced her intention to attract international organizations to support the initiative.
The fighting in the Kursk region has been going on since the morning of August 6. Then the Ukrainian troops attempted to break into the territory of the region.
During this time, 28 settlements in the region were under the control of the Ukrainian military, where about 2 thousand people may remain, acting Governor Alexei Smirnov said on August 12. The Ukrainian forces went 12 km deep into the region, RBC quotes him.
