The occupiers will try to storm the Azovstal plant in Mariupol – Denisova

In the coming days, the Russian occupiers will try to storm the Azovstal plant in Mariupol. In addition to Ukrainian defenders, more than 1,000 civilians are also hiding there.

This was announced on April 18 by the Commissioner for Human Rights Lyudmyla Denisova.

– Citizens who do not want to go out remain in the premises and basements of the plant, as their houses have been destroyed and they do not want to be sent to filtration camps and Russia. Among them are women, children and the elderly,- she said.

According to official information, there are already four rashists filtration camps in Mariupol. There, the occupiers rounded up the city’s residents under machine gun barrels before deporting them to Russia.

– There are more than 20 thousand people. In the neighboring village of Bezimenne there is also a camp with 5-7 thousand citizens, – said Lyudmyla Denisova.

The actions of the rashists army in Mariupol were again called by the  Commissioner for Human Rights an act of genocide of the Ukrainian people.

She also once again appealed to the UN Commission to Investigate Human Rights Violations during Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine to record this and other facts of Russian war crimes in Ukraine.
