The Mariupol City Council notes that today the Russian occupiers are continuing to fire on Mariupol, with all areas being destroyed by enemy fire. There are no streets left without broken windows, destroyed apartments, or even houses of civilians. It is difficult to determine the number of death, caused by Russian aggression, due to fact that the bodies of the dead victims are buried right in the yards of the residential sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The city is still without lighting, water, and even gas. So the citizens prepare food near the houses on the fires(a bonfire). However, the danger unites inhabitants: everyone helps each other. Mariupol was left without means of communication. The only opportunity to gain any info about the situation in the country is asking the military.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
