Mariupol will be taken at night

DPR troops stand 13 kilometers from the city

Preparations are underway for the attack. On the road near the village of Zaichenki, I saw two T-72 tanks, KAMAZ and Ural vehicles with numbers smeared with white paint. Fights are under Shirokino and Berdyansk. From Novoazovsk, the front is 15 kilometers from Mariupol. Some battalions of the Ukrainian army are leaving the city: The New Times correspondent saw a column of 17 armored personnel carriers with military personnel in the uniform of the Ukrainian Airborne Forces. Governor Taruta was in the city during the day. But where now - is unknown. The New Times correspondent was detained at a DPR militia post near Mariupol, but was released after an hour and a half of checks. The situation is clearly evolving, and it seems that at night the DPR troops, supported by the Russian military, will try to take Mariupol. Stay tuned to the site - The New Times will update information from the Ukrainian front as news arrives.
