Russia sends another ‘humanitarian convoy’ to Donbas – State Border Service

On Thursday, December 5, another illegal Russian convoy consisting of 25 vehicles arrived at the non-government-controlled territory of Donbas.

“On December 5, two columns of the so-called humanitarian convoy from the Russian Federation passed through the Donetsk and Matveev Kurgan checkpoints,” the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine reported.

As noted, the 94th convoy consisted of 25 vehicles. In addition, the vehicle load was about 70%. Its movement, like the previous ones, occurred with a gross violation of the norms of international and domestic legislation and modalities agreed with the International Committee of the Red Cross. The Ukrainian side carried out only visual observation without performing control functions.

As reported, Russia since August 2014 has illegally sent convoys of trucks to Donbas, which it calls a “humanitarian convoy”.
