Military operation in Ukraine

If Kiev really controls Konstantinovka, then let it demine town — Kremlin

According to Dmitry Peskov, the demining would take five days

MOSCOW, November 13. /TASS/. If Ukraine really controls Konstantinovka like it says, then let it clear mines from access roads there, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

"We have said that we are in control of Konstantinovka, and so, we are ready to start clearing mines. It will take five days, and later, after all guarantees have been given, all security guarantees have been agreed, a humanitarian operation will be carried out," he said at a briefing.

"If the Ukrainians, as they claim, control Konstantinovka, let them do it, let them carry out mine clearance."
