The convoy's passage had been delayed for more than a week amid suspicions it was being used as cover for a Russian invasion.
Ukraine's Security Service chief Valentyn Nalyvaichenko has called the convoy's movement a "direct invasion" which "happened for the first time under the cover of the Red Cross", but said Kiev would not use force against it.
The convoy also proceeded without support from the Red Cross, who have been accompanying its journey so far.
Nalyvaichenko has claimed the men driving the trucks are Russian military forces trained to drive combat vehicles, and said the vehicles would go on to be used to transport weapons to the pro-Russian rebels, and remove the bodies of fighters from eastern Ukraine, AP reported.
