According to the mayor of Mariupol, Vadym Boychenko, the authorities are aware that the russian military is taking the bodies of killed Mariupol residents to the territory of the Staryy Krym cemetery, where they bury them in mass graves.
“We know about these mass graves because these fascists — and I have no other words — involve the local population for burial for food. They told us that you have to earn “labor hours” to be given food, water... Now in Mariupol there is not enough humanitarian aid that they bring in, so people are forced to do it,” Boychenko told.
Stary Krym has been under occupation by russian troops since March 10.
