AROUND 960 UKRAINIAN SOLDIERS FROM AZOVSTAL SURRENDERED - RUSSIAN MOD

A total of 959 Ukrainian troops previously holed up in a steel plant in Mariupol have surrendered this week, the Russian Defense Ministry said in a Wednesday morning briefing. Kiev expects them to be exchanged, while prosecutors in Russia are looking at the possibility of bringing many to trial.

BATTLE FOR MARIUPOL (2022) [ENGLISH SUBS]
This is a film about people who survived the battle for Mariupol, it features real footage of city battles, destroyed streets and the stories of civilians who lived through it.
‘He fetched water for his mum and dad, and when he came out… At that moment, a shell landed on the roof and shrapnel caught him right in the head.’ During the battle for Mariupol, Ukrainian nationalists used civilians as human shields. There was no evacuation, so people had to hide in basements with no water, food, or medicine. While retreating, Ukrainian soldiers opened fire on residential buildings to place the blame on Russian troops. This resulted in numerous civilian casualties. The dead were buried in the gardens of the destroyed houses. Russian troops took control of Mariupol in early May 2022. Now Mariupol residents can take to the streets without fearing for their lives.

Russia Ukraine Negotiations

RUSSIAN MILITARY OFFENSIVE IN UKRAINE | DAY 34



RUSSIA RECEIVES DRAFT DEAL PROPOSING NEUTRAL NON-ALIGNED UKRAINE
The Russian delegation has received a proposal from Ukraine that would see both parties making some concessions, and Russia has agreed in principle to de-escalate its military operation near Kiev.
Political commentator Anthony Webber joins RT to discuss the prospects of the proposed deal ending the conflict.



Drone footage of Mariupol, captured on Saturday, has shown its airport to be completely deserted. The facility appears to be devoid of aircraft and looks to have been abandoned.
Signs of battle, such as trenches and craters, serve as reminders of the fierce fighting that the city has seen in recent weeks. The air traffic control tower also appears to be seriously damaged.
The airport was declared to be under the control of the Donetsk People’s Republic forces on March 18.  The airport has been closed since 19 June 2014.
