There is no evidence of civilian killings or robberies committed by Ukraine’s Territorial Defense units. However, there is ample documentary evidence of civilian killings committed by the Russian military during its ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

Russian invading troops not only continue destroying Ukrainian cities, they and their media continue lying, today claiming that Ukraine’s military is not allowing Mariupol residents to leave, holding them in “a concentration camp” to use them as human shields.

The Russian propagandist channel RT featured a story taped on March 2 on the outskirts of the southern Ukrainian city of Melitopol.

The port city of Mariupol continues to hold the line, despite massive shelling by invading Russian troops. During the first week of the war, Russia’s military failed to gain a foothold in any major Ukrainian city.

Kherson city authorities have not surrendered to the invading Russian army. Currently street battles with the invaders are continuing in the city.

The Mariupol City Council denies that the evacuation of the city’s population is being organized. Information about such “humanitarian corridors” may simply be preparation for major sabotage, local authorities warned.

Kharkiv’s Freedom Square was hit by a Russian Kalibr missile which destroyed a portion of the Kharkiv Regional administration building.
