NEW DELHI, August 25. /TASS/. India is ready to dispatch the 12th batch of humanitarian assistance at Ukraine’s request, Indian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Ruchira Kamboj said on Wednesday.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special military operation in response to a request for help by the heads of the Donbass republics. He stressed that Moscow had no plans of occupying Ukrainian territories, but aimed to demilitarize and denazify the country. After that, the West began to impose large-scale anti-Russian sanctions and intensified weapons supplies to Ukraine.
