Russia wants to capture wounded fighters in Mariupol, local governor says

A Ukrainian governor says Russia is preventing wounded Ukrainian fighters from being evacuated from a steel plant in Mariupol because it wants to capture them. Hundreds of fighters and civilians are holed up in the Azovstal steel works in Mariupol as Russian forces continue to surround the plant. Pavlo Kyrylenko, governor of the Donetsk region, said Russia is not agreeing to evacuate anyone, not even wounded troops.

"They [want to] use the opportunity to capture the defenders of Mariupol, one of the main [elements] of whom are the... Azov regiment," Mr Kyrylenko said.Share post

Civilians and children after these 'guys, Azov, military' this is how Ukrainian regime taking care about lives of Ukrainian people...

Its against narrative 4 ABC to remind readers that US trained&armed Afghan mujahideen who turned to Taliban/Al-Qaeda & return favour so whole world suffered. US supported Chechen freedom fighters, they paid back in Boston US arming far-right neo-nazi in 🇺🇦, how will they pay back

They can go out without weapon, surrender and get medical help. Civilians have Stockholm syndrome as they think there are still clashes up there and Azov nazis are protecting them.. but reality is Azov won't let them out as it is only protection they have.... terrorists tactics

. . Sshhhh, it's a secret... But those soldiers trapped in the steelworks using civilians as himan shields... I think you'll find... THEY'RE NOT UKRAINIAN. Who are they? Well that's part of the secret... .

It is obvious that they can’t be allowed to just ‘evacuate’! This is war. Injured soldiers can’t just be evacuated - the will have to surrender. Russia do in fact provide medical treatment to Ukranian soldiers who surrender.

Yeh the video footage from the Russian humanitarian brigade and the stories from locals in Mariupol tell a VERY different story. The Nazi regime of Ukraine (with weapons from NATO and US) are killing indiscriminately and blaming Russia.

Sounds like America's war on drugs again. Seriously.

'Ok, so let's just let them leave so they can kill more of us later.' 😒

Are they foreigners ❓ I remember in Macedonia, NATO were quick to take the terorist to unknown location, can they try it here?
