Quote: "Our sources from the city report that at the filtration checkpoints and checkpoints around Mariupol towards Zaporizhzhia, there is a rotation of occupiers.

Collaborators and representatives of the so-called People's Militia of the DPR are being replaced by representatives of the Rosgvardia [Russian National Guard]  and the "Kadyrovites" [units under the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov].

In addition, the occupiers are setting up additional checkpoints / checkpoints on dirt roads that could have bypassed the filtration."

Details: According to Andryushchenko, since 21 May, any evacuation from Mariupol has become impossible until separate corridors are opened up following negotiations with the country's leadership.

The mayor's adviser urged all those who trusted the occupiers’ propaganda and informational incursions and were planning to return to Mariupol temporarily to collect personal belongings not to do so.
