The Russian Ministry of Defense claimed in a statement accompanied by an image taken by an unmanned aerial vehicle that the convoy, which was advancing through the evacuation corridors, was stopped by Ukrainian nationalist groups. “A video from the checkpoint at the Chernihiv exit, where Ukrainian nationalist groups block civilians’ exit with vehicles along the humanitarian corridor. Nationalists (in black uniforms) are turning cars around and returning them to the city. Representatives of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and nationalists refuse to allow the civilian population of the city to use the humanitarian corridor, instead hiding behind them and holding them as hostages,” the statement reads.
