The occupiers are holding more than 10,000 Mariupol citizens in ORDLO “prisons” – Boychenko
The mayor of Mariupol, Vadym Boychenko, claims that the Russian occupiers are holding more than 10,000 Mariupol residents in the prisons of the so-called DPR.
– Peaceful civilian residents were detained by the occupiers and sent to prisons. Four such prisons are known: two in Olenivka, Donetsk SIZO and Makiivka. People are in terrible and inhumane conditions, like in a concentration camp, he said.
According to Boychenko, they were locked up in cramped cells of 2 by 3 meters for 10 people, they were hardly given water and were not allowed outside.
Also, as the mayor notes, citizens do not have access to normal medical care, and they are exposed to various forms of torture, from psychological to physical.
It is reported that the occupiers have created real concentration camp conditions in which peaceful Mariupol residents are forced to survive.
– I call on the International Red Cross and the UN to pay attention to the illegal detention of the city’s citizens. Use all possible tools to obtain lists of prisoners. To achieve that they receive decent living conditions. But at the same time, work on the liberation of every Mariupol citizen, – Vadym Boychenko emphasized in a statement distributed by the Mariupol City Council on Telegram.
