Moscow, SANA – Russian Defense Ministry reaffirmed the readiness of Moscow and Damascus to resume the humanitarian pause in Aleppo if the international organizations provide guarantees of their readiness to let the civilians and the injured leave the eastern neighborhoods of the city.
Spokesman of the Ministry Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said in a statement on Wednesday that the “Russian Federation together with the Syrian authorities are ready to resume the humanitarian pause in Aleppo on receiving international organizations’ guarantees of readiness to lead ill and injured people and civilians out of the militant-controlled districts of the city.”
