Russians have already exported 165,000 tonnes of cargo from port of Mariupol this year

Since the beginning of the year, the occupiers have exported 165,000 tonnes of cargo from the port of Mariupol, including more than 84,000 tonnes of agricultural products.

This was reported by the National Resistance Centre in Telegram, Ukrinform reports.

"Since the beginning of the year, the volume of cargo transshipment, which the enemy unceremoniously steals and sends outside Ukraine, in the port of Mariupol has already exceeded 165,000 tonnes. In total, 84,200 tonnes of agricultural products have already been stolen and exported," the statement said.

It is noted that the Russian occupiers informed about their desire to increase the capacity of the port of Mariupol to 4.8 million tonnes.

"The enemy is clearly implementing Putin's plan to 'demilitarise Ukraine', taking out of our land primarily bread and equipment from the once largest industrial giants in Europe, such as Avdiivka Coke and Azovstal in Mariupol," the National Resistance Centre adds.

As Ukrinform previously reported, the invaders are recruiting schoolchildren from the temporarily occupied territories to a branch of the Nakhimov Naval School being built in the captured Mariupol.
