The "Azov" Regiment has published a new video about the life of Mariupol residents in the bomb shelter on "Azovstal." The video appeared on the YouTube channel of the Regiment.
"My job has gone, my hospital was destroyed, my department was destroyed, my house was destroyed. From the first days [of war], my hospital received the patients who had no limbs, not military but civilians. The whole world is watching what the russian federation is doing to our city, our children, and our men. They are deported to Russia by force. Is it really normal? ” - says one of the women in the video.
"The children do not sleep. The children are trembling because of the russian federation," - said another woman.
Also, one of the bomb shelter residents showed a room where children sleep at night. According to her, they have had no diapers in the bomb shelter for two months now, so they make improvised diapers for a one-year-old using fabric and plastic bags.
"That's how children sleep. This is how a one-year-old child sleeps. There are no diapers. That's how he suffers; his skin is red, there is rash," - she says.
Some women say they found themselves in a bomb shelter on the way to work in February and still do not know if their relatives are OK.
"We have not left the shelter for two months. I don't even know what the weather is like. It feels like it's still February 28,” - said one woman.
On 24 April 2022, Deputy Commander of the "Azov" Regiment, Sviatoslav Palamar, recorded another video address to the world community. He appealed to the whole civilized world, asking people to do everything possible so that the militaries who performed a superhuman feat in the abandoned Mariupol were able to tell everything to their relatives to visit the graves of their brothers-in-arms.
According to Mykhailo Podoliak, an Adviser to the Head of the Office of the President, russia is attacking "Azovstal" in Mariupol non-stop on Easter. The russians also intensively concentrate equipment and forces for the assault.
On 24 April 2022, the Head of the Office of the President, Andriy Yermak, said that the russians had not gained complete control of Mariupol and noted that the country's military and political leadership was in constant contact with the worriers who remained in the city.
