"For the success of the deal, it is important that the parties respect the agreements and provide the necessary conditions and security guarantees", the ICRC said in a statement.
The ICRC claims to act as a "neutral intermediary" with plans to "escort a convoy from Mariupol to another city in Ukraine".
"Our presence will mark a humanitarian marker on this planned movement of people, providing the convoy with additional protection and reminding all parties of the civilian, humanitarian nature of the operation", the ICRC said in a statement.
The team plans to try again to make the trip to the besieged city on Saturday, April 2.
