Communal graves in Mariupol/AP
In Mariupol, people killed by the Russians are forced to be buried in mass graves, some right in the yards.
The enemy does not stop shelling
These are forced actions, the enemy does not stop shelling, there is simply no opportunity to bury the dead in the cemetery. This was announced by the mayor of Mariupol Vadim Boychenko.
I confirm this. Alas, it didn't work out otherwise. The shelling didn't stop. And there was the only cemetery that we could drive up to under bombs and aircraft,” Boychenko noted.
During the days of heavy shelling, people were buried in courtyards
He also said that in recent days when “humiliating blows” were inflicted, people had to be buried even in the yards.
Utility services worked at 1000%, as far as it was possible in such conditions. It was very difficult,” the mayor added.
By the way, the situation in Mariupol remains difficult. The invaders continue to destroy the city, using a variety of weapons. The Russians are literally wiping the city off the face of the earth.
140,000 people managed to leave Mariupol, which is regularly shelled by Russian invaders. But almost 170,000 more residents are waiting for help.
