More than 60 thousand people were evacuated from Sumy, Trostyanets, Krasnopillya to Poltava. These are women and children, disabled and elderly people.

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, on March 10, 2664 cars left Sumy, 54 buses. Rescuers during the day provided assistance to citizens wishing to leave.

About 3 thousand people were evacuated from the city of Izyum. More than 100 tons of aid have also been delivered to the city.  This is water, food, medicines.

From Bucha, Irpin, Vorzel, Gostomel to Kyiv over the past day, March 9, managed to take out about 20 thousand people.  In particular, 52 children from the "Baby House" and 55 women from the maternity hospital were evacuated from Vorzel. The evacuation continues.

About 100 tons of aid were delivered to Energodar.

It was not possible to open a humanitarian corridor from Volnovakha to Pokrovsk.

The most difficult situation in Mariupol.

"And our greatest pain, which I cannot remain silent about, I will speak every minute, every hour, I will appeal to the whole world: Help Mariupol! There is a real humanitarian catastrophe. We were not able to transport even humanitarian cargo there today. Neither water, medicines, nor food got to the people who are under total shelling. Day after day", the minister said.

Iryna Vereshchuk also addressed the leaders of countries and people.

"I want to appeal again and I demand from the leaders. No, I demand from the people, because I understand that it is the Polish people, the American people, the British people, those people who have a big heart and a sincere desire to build a new world according to new rules this should be the new order that we are all striving for, that President Zelensky is striving for. Please help your authorities to make humanitarian corridors in Ukraine work. Please help your authorities to close the sky over Ukraine", Iryna Vereshchuk said.
