Russia declares cease-fire in southern Ukrainian cities of Mariupol and Volnovakha for evacuation routes Story from Ukraine by nabihbulos
People clamored to board trains, fled on foot and navigated a river Friday to escape Irpin, Ukraine, as Russian forces continued their advance toward the capital, Kyiv.
The cease-fire comes as Russian forces have pressed the attack in Ukraine’s south, the one area of the country where their campaign appears to be making gains. Taking the city would further consolidate Russia’s gains on the Black Sea coast and create a link with Crimea, which Moscow annexed illegally in 2014. That would then serve as a springboard for an all-out assault on Odesa, the crown jewel of Ukraine’s coastal cities.
