Zelensky Says 100,000 Trapped in Mariupol

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a televised address that about 100,000 people are enduring “inhumane conditions” in the southeastern port city of Mariupol as they contend with a relentless attack by Russian forces, Axios reports.

Zelensky said Mariupol’s citizens were completely blockaded by Russia’s military: “No food, no water, no medicine. Under constant shelling, under constant bombing.”
