Russia is preventing wounded Ukrainian fighters from being evacuated from a vast steel works in the southern city of Mariupol because it wants to capture them, the local governor said on Thursday.
Pavlo Kyrylenko, governor of the eastern region of Donetsk, said Russia was also blocking efforts to arrange humanitarian corridors elsewhere in Donetsk but that Russian forces were being held back across his region.
Mariupol city council said about 100,000 city residents were "in mortal danger" because of Russian shelling and unsanitary conditions. It said the shortage of drinking water and food was "catastrophic".
