Reuters reports that 10 buses with Ukrainian military left Azovstal

According to Reuters , a witness at the scene said that about 10 buses with Ukrainian defenders left Azovstal.

On Monday, Reuters saw about a dozen buses apparently carrying Ukrainian fighters. It was not possible to establish how many people were on the buses. It is estimated that there are about 600 fighters on the territory of a large Soviet-era factory, including dozens of wounded, the report said.

On May 16, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced that an agreement had been reached on the removal of wounded Ukrainian soldiers from the blocked Azovstal plant in Mariupol to the occupied territory. The commander of the Azov regiment stated that they had completed the task and wanted to save the lives of their subordinates.
