Moscow has assessed the humanitarian operation in Oleshky. However, no similar operations are currently planned in the future, states Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov.
According to him, Moscow considers the humanitarian operation in Oleshky a success and highly appreciates the coordination among all those involved.
At the same time, Russia is not planning any new humanitarian operations similar to the evacuation from the occupied city of Oleshky in the Kherson region.
"There are currently no plans or initiatives for operations similar to this humanitarian mission, but the interests of citizens will remain a top priority in every case," Russian propaganda media quoted Peskov as saying.
On October 31, evacuated residents of Oleshky arrived in Ukraine via Belarus.
The humanitarian convoy evacuated more than 750 people: most went to Ukraine, while some went to Russia.
As RBC-Ukraine reported, Russia claimed that same day that it had reached an agreement with Ukraine on regular humanitarian missions.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha also said that Ukraine was ready to halt hostilities along the entire front line if Russia did the same.
He suggested that the outcome in Oleshky could help build trust and pave the way for further steps in the peace process.
