Russian and Ukrainian forces will again try to keep their fingers off their triggers for a little while.
A second ceasefire will be implemented from noon South African time.
Officials in Mariupol say new 'green routes' have been identified to move civilians.
A truce on Saturday was interrupted by gunfire, with civilians scrambling back to shelters.
Russia and Ukraine blame each other for the collapse of the ceasefire.
Officials hope they will be able to get over 200,000 people out of the city.
Meanwhile, Russia's financial woes continue with Mastercard and Visa stopping operations.
