The SMM visited two border areas currently outside government control. At the Uspenka border crossing point (73km south-east of Donetsk), present for under 30 minutes, the SMM saw (…) ten blue Kamaz trucks with covered trailers, all with "DPR” plates. All vehicles were in a queue to exit Ukraine. The driver (a middle-aged man) of one of the blue trucks told the SMM that the ten trucks were transporting wheat and he had faced no problems exiting Ukraine with the plates he had and his "DPR” "passport”. At the Novoazovsk (101km south-east of Donetsk) border crossing point, in less than an hour, the SMM saw: four covered trucks (with Ukrainian licence plates) transporting wheat and ten civilian cars (nine with Ukrainian licence plates, one with "DPR” plates) exit Ukraine. The driver of one of the trucks told the SMM that they were transporting wheat.
