Time: Ukraine's military rejects russian offer to surrender and "keep their lives" in Mariupol

English version here

The city of Mariupol has been under attack almost since the first day of russia's invasion. Later on, all public utilities have been shut down.

Ukrainian fighters who were holed up in a massive steel plant in the last known pocket of resistance inside the shattered city of Mariupol ignored a surrender-or-die ultimatum from Russia on Sunday and held out against the capture of the strategically vital port.

The fall of Mariupol, the site of a merciless 7-week-old siege that has reduced much of the city to a smoking ruin, would be Moscow's biggest victory of the war and free up troops to take part in a potentially climactic battle for control of Ukraine's industrial east.

This is reported by Rubryka referring to TIME magazine.

Generally, if russia seized the city, it would allow Moscow to fully secure a land corridor to the Crimean Peninsula and control a major city in the region.
