The russian soldiers dropped multi-ton bombs all night on a military field hospital located on the territory of the Azovstal plant in Mariupol, where the injured defenders were treated.
Russian military used bombs able to penetrate any concrete protective structures. After the destruction, the enemy continued shelling the ruins with naval artillery, Azov-Mariupol informed.
"Some of the already injured soldiers are dead, newly injured, or shell-shocked," the soldiers said.
Part of the hospital building collapsed, including the operating room. This makes it impossible to provide help to our soldiers as before.
"The Geneva Convention guarantees the protection of stationary and mobile medical facilities; they should not be attacked! The injured and sick people must be protected, regardless of whether they are civilians or military personnel. The wounded people should be provided with the necessary aid without any discrimination", - the representative of "Azov" pointed out.
Ukrainian defenders requested the international human rights organizations to react to Russia's attempt to kill even those defenders of Mariupol who can no longer hold weapons.
Azov also made public a video taken immediately after the shelling. The video showed how the soldiers who were in the hospital with serious injuries, were dug out of the wreckage, dead. The surviving victims were provided with first medical aid.
The city council of Mariupol informed today about the possible preparation of another assault on Azovstal. The occupiers have intensified their activities in the area of Veselka Park, searching and detaining people there. In the city, movement of numerous military vehicles and equipment has been recorded.
