“One of the priority tasks was to determine which regions, in addition to the Rostov region, are ready to accept refugees,” RIA Novosti quotes a message from the Ministry of Emergencies.

Chupriyan demanded within 24 hours to organize brigades responsible for paying money to residents of the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics.

It is noted that in the Rostov region there are 15 checkpoints on the border of Donbass.

Earlier, the head of the DPR, in an address to residents, said that in connection with the dangerous situation in the Donbass, from February 18, the departure of the population to Russia was organized.
