Details: According to Iryna Vereshchuk, it was impossible to evacuate people from Izyum to Lozova,  Kharkiv oblast, due to mortar shelling by the occupying forces on the route. The buses returned to the town of Lozova.

People could not be evacuated from the villages of Andriyivka and Mykulychi in the Kyiv oblast to Zhytomyr because the occupying forces denied the passing and ordered the buses to turn around and go back. The Russian military said it had not received the order to pass a convoy of buses to evacuate people.

There was no evacuation from the town of Makariv in the Kyiv oblast to Zhytomyr, as the occupying forces violated the ceasefire on the route.

Similarly there was no evacuation from Borodyanka, Kyiv oblast, to Zhytomyr due to violations of the ceasefire by the occupying forces.

There was also no evacuation from Mariupol to Zaporizhya. A new attempt will be made to evacuate people from this location on Saturday.

"All of Ukraine will be watching the evacuation tomorrow. First we plan to bring humanitarian aid to Mariupol, and then we want to evacuate people. I ask everyone who can cover this event tomorrow to pay attention to this humanitarian corridor. It is the toughest situation there," Iryna Vereshchuk said.

There was no evacuation from Volnovakha, Donetsk oblast, towards Pokrovsk.

At the same time, Vereshchuk said that more than a thousand people were evacuated from Vorzel, Kyiv oblast, on Friday. People also managed to get out of Bucha, Gostomel and Kozarovichi, Kyiv oblast.
