ukraine is pushing to get more civilians out of the war zone. president zelenskyy reporting 100,000 civilians have been evacuated from some of the hardest hit areas. in the past two days. the humanitarian corridors have supposedly been opened for more than an hour now. ukraine president said they were not open for the city of marupol. the russian siege only growing more devastating. massive craters from russian attacks. the city digging mass graves for at least 1,300 civilian deaths. the red cross says hundreds of thousands are without food, water and heat. power and medical care. russian forces shell civilian infrastructure. like this maternity hospital. which russia denies. bombing a humanitarian corridor. the u.s. ambassador saying this
the local government says there s heavy fighting around the city. a senior defense official says russian forces have drawn about three miles closer to the capitol. on the black sea the port city is preparing for a fight. the regional military accused a russian ship of firing in the sky over the city. i can see what s happening in the country. i don t want russian troops to take our city. we are trying hard to set up a force to resist them. russia pushing the debunk conspiracy theory the u.s. is funding bio weapon labs in ukraine. they have seen no evidence of ukraine developing any weapons of mass destruction. this is consistent with long standing russian efforts to accuse the united states of sponsoring bio weapons work in former soviet union. the u.s. and some allies warn such accusations by the kremlin may indicate russia plans on using the weapons themselves. there s talk of the use of chemical weapons. we have seen russia do that
before this. and describe a city diverse and flourishing. cafe and restaurants. give us a sense of there now. it s always been a front line town. on border with pro-russian separatists. there s fighting. but the town is modern and european. flourishing. it s a port. i had dinner there a few weeks before the invasion. people were dancing and relaxing. it was normal life. and now of course, it s just a hell scape. judging from what we have seen in there, what s going to look like after this? i think it s going to be like a the syria city. so many historic parallels here. i don t see a political strategy. just to destroy and pulverize. regardless of the human cause. to what end? this is the thing i don t understand. to what end?
