Ukraine: More than 70 buses ready to evacuate civilians from Sumy

More than 70 buses are ready in the besieged city of Sumy in northeastern Ukraine to evacuate civilians who have gathered before a “safe passage” operation that the Red Cross hopes to launch today, a spokesman said.

“People have gathered, we hope it will go as planned,” Watson, a spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), told Reuters in Geneva. “At least we hope to start this business today.”

Earlier, Watson told a United Nations briefing in Geneva that the ICRC and the Ukrainian Red Cross hoped to organize the evacuation of two convoys of about 30 buses to a safe area.
