Russia has demanded Ukrainian forces still fighting to defend the besieged city of Mariupol lay down their weapons. The apparent ultimatum comes as Russia continues its relentless and devastating attack on the southeastern city.
Russian state media Ria reported that "without exception" all "Ukrainian armed units and foreign mercenaries" must exit from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Moscow time (same as local time) "without any weapons and ammunition," citing the Russian Defense Ministry.
An estimated 100,000 people remain in Mariupol and its immediate surroundings, which are reported to be largely under Russian control, with Ukrainian troops confined to pockets of resistance.
Some context: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zekensky late Saturday called the situation in the besieged city of Mariupol "inhuman," saying the situation remained "as severe as possible."
"Russia is deliberately trying to destroy everyone who is there in Mariupol," he said in his latest video address.

Oh. That was definitely a ‘wide world’.
It’s not Wokeness or cancel culture to say we don’t need racial or ethnic slurs here.
There have been mass purges over the howlin type coven stuff, and the elections always get purges. It is very interesting that the site is sitting back on this current civil war. I think it’s because of the current awareness that banning everyone for wrongthink could be bad.
I’m more criticizing fr’s past actions than current ones. The zot parties just don’t seem to be as ‘expedient’ than they used to be in this new age. Trolls and blatant jerks ok, but you used to be banned for just taking a side.
I’m glad it doesn’t seem to be that way now.
I was in denial when I first heard about the invasion. "No way! In 2022?"
This will be the last one anyway. 32 countries are in NATO. Nothing Russia can do about that. Nukes are a good thing.
It is impossible to know the true nature of events in Ukraine. It is painfully obvious Biden’s people want Zelensky to fight to the last drop of Ukrainian blood.
Biden’s sending $800 million more in munitions to Ukraine just guarantees more Ukrainians will die and more of the country will be destroyed.
Many of us don’t want Americans to support EITHER side in this conflict which really goes back centuries.
Both Putin and Zelensky are rotten apples and those of us who call for “Hands Off” by America have seen too many young Americans die in foreign countries we had no business fighting in.
There is no official position by management. So it's a free for call for the time being.
I’m expecting that hammer to drop, depending on who pays the most to the site and who ends up losing politically.
Can’t we just send Rodney King over there?
Sure, just dig him up.
How do yu say that in Russian?
Орехи
they seem to have a lot of letters backward 😵💫
I was going to say the same thing. What’s with the n00b complaining about FR policy? And one named House RINO to boot? 😂
Retread perhaps?
The Ukrainians have been begging for munitions. We’ve also seen many credible reports from them which indicate that they’d rather die than submit to Putin - and I suspect that they know more about him than any of us here do.
I don’t really care about Putin OR Zelensky. I care about the Ukrainian people who didn’t ask for this, but are being killed and bombed out of their homes.
Should we just ignore all of this?
Can’t we just all get along.
OK, George Floyd then.
Yes, they do. 😀😆😂
“Can’t we just all get along.”
‘Zactly.
Islam still represents THE existential threat to Western Civ.
Putin has become retarded.
God forbid anyone questions the site
