Via another humanitarian corridor, over 6,200 militants left Syria's Eastern Ghouta with their family members on Friday mounting buses that transported them to the Idlib province.
"Via a humanitarian corridor, 6,276 militants and members of their families were transported by 141 buses to the province of Idlib on March 30," a statement by the Russian Defense Ministry read.
Relatively, the statement noted that Failaq al-Rahman militants continued to leave the settlement of Irbin in Eastern Ghouta as a result of the agreements reached by senior officials of the Russian center for Syrian reconciliation with the group's leaders.
All in all, the total number of militants and their families, who have left Irbin since the relevant agreement has been in place, has reached 38,191.
The ministry also announced the decision to prolong the regime of humanitarian pauses to evacuate the rest of the Failaq al-Rahman militants from the area.
The ministry further noted that over 150,000 people had left Eastern Ghouta since the launch of daily humanitarian pauses in late February organized by the Russian center for Syrian reconciliation.
The ministry added that the civilians continued to return to the settlements liberated from militants as humanitarian and medical aid was delivered to the area.
