Russia Blocks Humanitarian Access to Mariupol to Cover Up “thousands” of victims in this besieged city of the south-east of Ukraine once morest which the attacks and the bombardments continue, affirmed Wednesday the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.
“I think one of the main reasons why we can’t get humanitarian aid into Mariupol is that until everything has been ‘cleaned up‘ by Russian soldiers, they’re afraid the world will see what’s going on there“, said Mr. Zelensky in an interview with the Turkish television channel Habertürk, posted online by the presidency.
The Russians will not be able to hide everything
It’s regarding “not tens but thousands of people killed and thousands injured“, he added. “We know how many (Ukrainian) servicemen died there and how many were injured there, but we don’t know how many civilians“.
“But, in any case, they (the Russians) will not be able to hide everything (…). Such a number is impossible to hide. And I think we’ll all see it when we can get in” in Mariupol, he said once more.
