Azovstal defenders held captive for 500 days

Following an order from the top leadership, Ukrainian soldiers have left the territory of Azovstal and surrendered to the Russians. This is reported by the MRPL NEWS Telegram channel.

The enemy guaranteed our side priority exchanges of these defenders, however... The fighters are still forced into captivity, being tortured and experiencing fake trials, and their relatives are tormented in obscurity," the report says.

Ukraine continues to fulfil its commitments to treat prisoners of war of the occupiers.

Not for a moment we do not forget about the feat of the defenders and defenders of Mariupol! We are waiting for the return from captivity of each and every one of them.
