For his part, the head of the regional military administration, Pavlo Kyrylenkohas posted a video on Facebook showing the extent of the damage caused in the attack.
“In the city center, hospital, maternity ward and care, all this has been destroyed in a Russian air raid on Mariupol. Right now. The Russian pilot, who probably doesn’t hesitate to call himself a man, pressed the button again, knowing exactly where the bomb would fly,” he wrote on Facebook.
And he has accused the Russian forces of having “crossed the limit of inadmissible relations between states and peoples”, of having “crossed the limit of humanity”. “Stop calling yourself human!” “Stop calling yourselves human beings,” she added.
The Ukrainian Foreign Minister, Dimitro Kulebahas urged the international community to intervene in the siege of the city, where some 400,000 people are being held hostage by Russian troops.
In a message posted on his Twitter account, he has asked the West to use force to “stop this barbaric war against civilians and babies” and has insisted that Russia “blocks humanitarian aid and the evacuation” of civilians in the city, where “indiscriminate bombing continues”. “Nearly 3,000 babies need food and medicine. I ask the world to act,” she added.
