To recap, on May 7, Serhii Volyna declared that defenders appeared in a hellish reality, watched all over the world. And they still hope that the decision to save them will be made.

The Ukrainian side offers the russians to exchange the severely wounded Ukrainian servicemen who remain on Azovstal for the captured russian servicemen. There is no agreement yet. Negotiations are ongoing.

To recap, russia's aggression caused one of the biggest humanitarian catastrophes in Mariupol.

On May 7, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for the Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories, Iryna Vereshchuk, said that all women, children, and the elderly had been evacuated from the Azovstal metallurgical plant.

The russians are constantly shelling the territory of the metallurgical plant with all kinds of weapons, including airplanes and naval artillery, and are repeatedly trying to storm.

The Ukrainian military, including several hundred wounded, is holding the fort. There is an acute shortage of medicines and people are dying in agony.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the Ukrainian authorities were working on diplomatic options to save the Ukrainian military stationed on the territory of the Azovstal Metallurgical Plant.

Soldiers of the Azov Regiment, the National Guard, the Ukrainian Marines, and motorized riflemen continue to defend Mariupol.
