Ukraine's military said on Tuesday it was working to evacuate all remaining troops from their last stronghold in the besieged port of Mariupol, ceding control of the city to Russia after months of bombardment.

The evacuation likely marked the end of the longest and bloodiest battle of the Ukraine war and a significant defeat for Ukraine. Mariupol is now in ruins after a Russian siege that Ukraine says killed tens of thousands of people in the city.

Another 211 people were taken to the town of Olenivka, in an area controlled by Russian-backed separatists, Deputy Defence Minister Anna Malyar said. All of the evacuees will be subject to a potential prisoner exchange with Russia, she added. Arriving in Novoazovsk in a bus marked with Z, a symbol for Russia's invasion, men could be seen stacked on stretchers on three levels. They stared out the windows without reacting. One man was wheeled out, his head tightly wrapped in thick bandages.

Areas around Kyiv and the western city of Lviv, near the Polish border, have continued to come under Russian attack. A series of explosions struck Lviv early on Tuesday, a Reuters witness said. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage.

You say 'evacuate' but it was actually 'surrender to Russia as prisoners of war'

at it again, there is a term for this it’s called “surrendering” feel free to be objective and non - partisan in your reporting

corrupt press not telling the truth.. typically of the empire of lies

Public already knows about your orders to insistently use the word 'evacuate', you know?

Fuck off the tractors are winning

Barbiewithatude Hmm. Both Reuters and BBC said 'evacuated' when 'captured by Russians' might have been better. Also, the Putin 'climb down' over NATO is because he knows Turkey will sabotage the deal, so he doesn't need to be dramatic.

In a Special military operation, Russian forces defeated Ukraine's Nazzi troops in Mariupol. Triage is ongoing to separate foreign mercenaries from Ukrainian soldiers. Trial to all will be fair.

What a strange terminology How can troops who were besieged, asking for the Pope's intervention cede control? They surrendered. That's the military terminology Ceding control means handshakes & then walk home

Evacuate? hahahahahahahahaha

Western media 🚮. Even Reuters succumbed to the propaganda. I wonder how they will spin the next surrenders. Azov Nazis crawl out of their basements to have tea with their Russian hosts.

Azov bandits captured by Russia forces..lol

Does this mean the Azov battalion has been rescued?

They will be home just in time for another U2 concert

Evecuated by Russia to russian prisons...this war also caused millions civian evacuation to other european countries right?

Ukraine to Russia: We go now; but we come back.

SURRENDERED

Capitulated, taken prisoners,

They are safe, well done, the World watched...

They held out for a long time, so at least it was not a premature evacuation.

I thought Russia is losing? Such mixed messages

Defeated N🔼ZIs

Yeah sure...evacuated to POW prison in Donbass or...Siberia. Bravo Zelensky! Hail Hitl...sorry, i mean Slava Ukraini! 😎✌️

Next Donbas, Nikolaev, Aleksandrovsk, Dniepropetrovsk, Odessa and Harkov. Hooe more will surrender and less get killed.

You mean they gave up and surrendered and are now going to prison.

They surrender into Russian Custody and they probably wont ever get to see their home again but God be damned, those are the most heroic people I have ever seen and I hope History books teach of their legends for generations.

Surrender

Call it what it is. They surrendered. That's not dishonoring them. They gave their all. I just hope they survive the POW camps.
