Mariupol from the height of flight

Our defenders showed what the city, being a martyr and a hero at the same time, looks like. Defenders of Mariupol stressed that there are still people in basements of high-rise buildings, smoldering because of Russian shelling. People are running out of food, the humanitarian catastrophe is at its peak, so the only hope of the citizens is the salvation.


"This is a Mariupol today ... Like a dead city shot by the enemy ... But it is still alive. People are breathing there - hungry, in the basements of burning houses. Their hearts are still beating under the rubble in the hope of salvation", – Mariupol defenders said.


The scale of the destruction of our port city can be seen even from space. But the rashists continue to shell Mariupol, committing genocide against its inhabitants. More than 3,000 civilians have already died. The infrastructure of the city has been almost completely destroyed.
