Two hundred rotting corpses found in Mariupol basement as war rages in east
The Independent says Workers digging through the rubble of an apartment building in Mariupol found 200 bodies in the basement, Ukrainian authorities said Tuesday – a grim reminder of the horrors still coming to light in the ruined city that has seen some of the worst suffering of the 3-month-old war.
The bodies were decomposing and a stench permeated the neighbourhood, said Petro Andryushchenko, an adviser to the mayor. It’s not clear when they were discovered.
Perched on the Sea of Azov, Mariupol was relentlessly pounded during a month-long siege that finally ended last week after some 2,500 Ukrainian fighters abandoned a steel plant where they had made their last stand.
