Kiev, Ukraine (CNN) -- The Ukrainian government has recognized the contents of a Russian convoy as humanitarian aid for war-weary civilians in the eastern part of the country, according to a statement from the Ukrainian Cabinet office.

Still, it may be awhile before the aid reaches those who need it.

Pascal Cuttat, head of the International Committee of the Red Cross delegation in Moscow, says there are still "basic technical details" that need to be discussed.

The convoy's inspection will "not realistically" happen today, said Victoria Zotikova, a spokeswoman for the ICRC.

Zotikova added that the aid agency is missing security guarantees from all sides "acting on the territory through which the convoy will be moving."

Months of fighting has killed hundreds of people and, aid groups say, left thousands in eastern Ukraine without access to water, electricity and proper medical aid.........
