Quote from Kalyna: "The shelling continued all night. Aviation and artillery shelling.

The storm of the plant by infantry continues. That is, the infantry is storming with armoured vehicles, tanks and artillery."

Background:

  • On the morning of 13 May, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and adviser to the mayor of Mariupol Petro Andriushchenko confirmed that Russian infantry continue to storm the Azovstal plant.

  • Last night, Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said that negotiations were currently underway with the Russian invaders on the evacuation of the seriously wounded. The International Committee of the Red Cross is ready to evacuate.

  • Despite the devastating shelling and Russian blockade of exits from Azovstal's underground bunkers, Ukrainian defenders continue to inflict significant losses on the Russian occupying forces in terms of personnel and equipment.

  • The Russian occupiers refused the extraction of the defenders of Mariupol by sea to a neutral country. They also said that after all the civilians were taken out of the bunkers, they supposedly had their hands "untied".
