Moscow has struck a deal with Kyiv and the Red Cross to evacuate residents from the embattled Kursk region, parts of which have been seized by Ukraine, Russia’s rights commissioner said Monday. Some of those residents have now crossed into Ukraine’s neighbouring Sumy region and are awaiting evacuation via Belarus, Russian rights commissioner Tatyana Moskalkova said.
