The Russian Defense Ministry said a temporary ceasefire will start at 10am local time on Monday, citing the "catastrophic" humanitarian situation on the ground.By opening multiple humanitarian corridors Russia is taking the risk of allowing the the neo-Nazi aligned military in Ukraine to regroup, as well as the possibility of them escaping, and so Ukraine's accusation that Russia has been firing on civilians doesn't make any sense, it also doesn't benefit their cause is any way whatsoever. However, there is a growing body of evidence showing that Ukraine has been using civilians as a human shield, by secreting their weaponry in residential areas, along with numerous reports of the death threats they've issued to civilians attempting to flee:
A safe passage was opened from Kiev to Belarus, where refugees will be airlifted to Russia, the ministry said. Exit routes to Russia were set up from the eastern Ukrainian cities of Kharkov and Sumy, as well as Mariupol on the Azov Sea coast. Moscow warned Ukraine not to prevent civilians from leaving. It also said any attempts of the Ukrainian side to shift the blame for undermining humanitarian efforts would be "senseless," as Russia will monitor the evacuation by using drones.
The ministry said the step was taken after a phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron on Sunday. Macron said he demanded "a ceasefire and the protection of civilians."
The Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), which broke off from Ukraine shortly after the 2014 coup in Kiev, considers Mariupol part of its territory. However, for eight years, the city has been controlled by Ukraine. DPR forces backed by Russian troops effectively surrounded Mariupol last week.
Attempts to arrange safe passage from the city on Saturday and Sunday failed, with both sides blaming each other. The Mariupol City Council accused Russia of shelling, while Moscow claimed Ukrainian "nationalists" were using civilians as "a human shield." RT was unable to independently verify the situation on the ground.
More than 1.5 million people have fled Ukraine to the West after Russia attacked the country on February 24, according to the UN.
Additionally, 96,000 people fled to Russia in the week prior to the offensive, during the flare-up between Ukraine and the DPR, as well as the neighboring Lugansk People's Republic, another entity that seceded from Ukraine in 2014.
Well on the way, head in a cloud
The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
The Russian Defense Ministry said a temporary ceasefire will start at 10am local time on Monday, citing the "catastrophic" humanitarian situation on the ground .I don't want to forget that this "catastrophic" humanitarian situation on the ground was directly caused by those instructing the Russian Defence Ministry's bureaucrats and the military under their command.
Truth is the daughter of time, not of authorityNow, if truth is the daughter of time, then her mother and her father must be time indeed, assuming you think it is true that it takes two to make another?
What should I have done, as a mature, rational adult instead?You would be advised not to come into my yard because scale matters and as you described it you went over the top of license - you were out of bounds. Now sometimes there is nothing wrong with being on the fence, and expressing ones views is something we all ought be allowed to do, but if you chase my kids and smash up my garden furniture and/or cause any harm to my plants, then I don't give a shit about who gets arrested, I think I will respond in kind. Ruthlessly.
I catch hold of a couple of your kids and give them a good thumping and kick the dogs.I reserve the right to kill you.
Sam CLYes, there's more clarity there. I forgot to tell you though that I was carrying a lit flamethrower and my chums from the neighbourhood association were coming up your drive armed to the teeth...we had you cornered.What should I have done, as a mature, rational adult instead?You would be advised not to come into my yard because scale matters and as you described it you went over the top of license - you were out of bounds.

Does that answer your question?

And I won't forget the men who sodomized each other, and took that right from me
And I'd gladly stand up, move away from you, and have not returned today
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
But the synagogue damned the USA!
