russian Ukraine War: Mariupol is a city in Ukraine. The distance of this city from Kyiv is only 25 kms but the situation here looks very bad as compared to Kyiv. Mariupol is Ukraine's new hell if the words of the people who have come out of this city are to be believed.
Russian bombs and missiles have worsened the condition of this city. The city has so far seen 2500 civilian deaths since the Russian attack. But any resident of Mariupol can be shocked to see the pictures of the city that have come out through drones and satellites. Because the scenes of devastation and destruction are scattered all over the city. And the rubble of the ruin is shedding tears over the fortunes of the city.
More than three and a half lakh people trapped in the city
russian Ukraine War: If the words of the Ukrainian authorities are to be believed, more than 3.5 lakh people are still trapped in this city. Whereas many residents of the city as well as electricity, water and medicine have also disappeared from here, so the remaining residents are forced to save their lives without gas in minus 5 degree temperature. That is, the situation is that if Russia escapes from the bomb, then the weather will kill.
According to Mariupol City officials, nearly tens of thousands of people in the city have managed to get out of the city in their own cars. Apart from this, more than 2000 vehicles are parked on the highway leading out of Mariupol city. For the last 15 days, the city has been surrounded by the Russian army. But the green corridor is also made by the Russian army in between to let the civilians out of here, in such a situation it does not appear to give relief to the people of the city.

russian Ukraine War: What two women told about Mariupol, who ran to the Zaporizhia area, about 225 km from the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, is no less than a scary dream. He told that Russian bombs and missiles are falling near the houses, so there is no scope for anyone to survive there.
Lydia, who arrived in Zaporizhia, says that it is not possible for anyone to live amidst the sounds of continuous bombing. Lydia says that since we left this city, the situation has become even worse till now. It is learned from the neighbors that the conditions are not being made for them to leave Mariupol. Lydia says that she spent two weeks in the basement with 60 people and ran away as soon as she got the chance.
Soup cooked in rain water
Russian Ukraine War: Svetlana, who lives in Mariupol, tells that she herself gave shelter to 17 people in her house. Not only this, after collecting rain water, soup was cooked in it. She tells her experience that when the war started, she did not want to leave the city, but now she does not want to stay here in the midst of bomb blasts.
The condition of hospitals in this city is also bad. First, most of the hospitals have been occupied by the Russian army. It has become difficult for those who got stuck in the hospital there to get out. Kirilenko says that anyone trying to escape from the hospital is shot by Russian soldiers. Here people are trapped in the basement of the hospital, while nearby buildings are on fire.
