According to Vereshchuk: "I am addressing those civilians who are waiting to be evacuated from Mariupol:
There is a possibility that tomorrow we will be able to open a humanitarian corridor from Mariupol."
Details: Vereshchuk said that evacuation buses will be collecting civilians at the roundabout in front of the Port-City shopping mall at 10:00 on Saturday, 23 April.
She urged Mariupol residents to follow official reports on Saturday morning.
"If everything is alright, I’ll give a confirmation. I am writing to you now, in the evening, so that you are somewhat prepared if in the morning we manage to agree on the corridor," Vereshchuk added.
She recalled that humanitarian corridors from Mariupol have been disrupted on many occasions, but reiterated that "we have to try as many times as is necessary, until we succeed."
