Sumy governor says humanitarian corridor to continue
The governor of the north-eastern city of Ukraine says a humanitarian corridor that was opened earlier on Tuesday, is set to continue on Wednesday.
Qazet.az reports that some 5,000 people were estimated to have left Sumy in two evacuation stages, according to the Ukrainian government.
Sumy, near the Russian border, has for days been under fierce Russian bombardment.
On Monday alone, 22 people (including three children) were killed in Russian air strikes, local officials said.
