Fighting in Ukraine continues. Buses have evacuated civilians from the town of Sumy to the town of Poltava. However, the evacuation of civilians and the delivery of food and medicines to the besieged town of Mariupol have failed after the attack of Russian forces, UNIAN agency announced.
The issue of humanitarian corridors was also discussed by the UN Security Council because of the rapidly growing number of civilian casualties. Western countries have called on Russia to allow the safe passage of civilians from besieged Ukrainian cities and the delivery of humanitarian aid.
"Russia offers humanitarian corridors towards Russia. I do not think there are many Ukrainians who would want asylum in Russia. This is hypocrisy," permanent representative of France to the United Nations, Nicolas de Rivière, said.
More than 1,700,000 Ukrainians have fled their homeland since the start of the war, the UN Refugee Agency has reported. Bulgaria has welcomed more than 38,000 refugees, as 21,000 of them have chosen to stay in the country.
Bulgaria supports sanctions against Russia as a means of stopping the invasion in Ukraine, but would probably seek an exception to a ban on imports of Russian natural gas and oil, if such a proposal was submitted to the EU, Prime Minister Kiril Petkov told Reuters.
