Ukie Banderas are planning to use civilian human shields in Odessa, as they did in Mariupol.

Street battles in Mariupol continue. The DNR authorities claim to control approximately 70% of the city's residential areas and parts of the industrial areas. The enemy continues to put up stubborn resistance. According to a number of reports, no prisoners will be taken after March 23. For now, they are still offering to surrender their weapons.

Reports came in today of a sad trend of elderly people finally being pulled out of the basements after a long time of neglect, who are dying within the hour after their rescue. We must make ALL the devils that caused this pay for their sins.

Bloody street fighting continues in the city of Mariupol where the DPR mop up operation continues. According to the estimates shared by the DPR, about half of the 14.5 thousand AFU personnel are still active in the city.
