Ukraine’s port city of Mariupol is facing its “last days, if not hours,” a commander in the besieged city revealed this week as Russian forces gave Ukrainian soldiers until noon on Wednesday to surrender.
Thousands of civilians and Ukrainian troops remain sheltered in a steel plant in the last remaining strongholds of the city. However, the building is encircled by Russian forces leaving the people inside with no access to “normal” supplies of food and water, an adviser for the city’s mayor said.
“The enemy is outnumbering us 10 to one,” Serhiy Volyna, a commander from the 36th Separate Marine Brigade, wrote on Facebook on Wednesday. “We appeal and plead to all world leaders to help us. We ask them to use the procedure of extraction and take us to the territory of a third-party state.”
In recent days, Russian forces intensified their push in the Donbas region, claiming the city of Kremmina in their new offensive to take eastern Ukraine. Russia has been trying to take full control of Mariupol since Feb. 24, the launch of their invasion that is close to entering its third month. Taking control of Donbas would mean Russia would have a southern land corridor to the annexed Crimean Peninsula, which has been occupied by Kremlin forces since 2014.

Why are we just gonna sit here and let humans get slaughtered…….if something isn’t done to save lives then we all get what we deserve. Idgaf about these politicians who get to sit behind closed doors while sending us into battle over their temper tantrum. How are we letting a few dumb asses control the masses. It’s time to tell these politicians what we want for humanity. It’s time for us to save instead of kill. This isn’t about being woke, this is about our future.
