“Last week we received information that this cargo is being formed, but it is being formed under the auspices of the military contingent. And instead of a humanitarian convoy, Russian troops will be brought in. Military units, armored personnel carriers, mercenaries and military ammunition, which the DPR currently lacks. This information was implemented in intelligence and released to the EU format, accordingly the Russian Federation was warned that this would be considered as direct aggression. As a result, the format was changed. And under the auspices of Putin, this cargo was sent, but without military assistance to the separatists. The main danger is that there is no clear identification of the cargo,” Malomuzh said.
As Navigator reported, earlier in Kyiv they said that they did not know where the humanitarian convoy was located: initially it was planned to meet it at the border of the Kharkov region. Former Minister of Defense of Ukraine Yevgeny Marchuk said that the convoy was divided into two parts.
