In Mariupol, besieged by Russian invaders, another mass grave of dead residents was discovered.

Petro Andriushchenko, an adviser to the mayor of Mariupol, reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

“We have received new information about the mass grave of dead Mariupol residents in an attempt to hide the consequences of war crimes. This time in the Livoberezhnyi district near the cemetery of Vynohradne village. This once again confirms that the occupiers conduct accumulation /burial / cremation of the dead Mariupol residents in every district of the city,” Andriushchenko wrote.

He published a satellite image and added that the approximate place of the mass grave was marked on the map.

As reported, Russian invaders have built several mass graves near a bypass road in Mariupol and are throwing bodies packed into plastic bags there.

Another satellite image made earlier showed the sector of mass burials in Manhush outside Mariupol. Between 3,000 and 9,000 civilians killed by Russians may be buried there.

Russian troops have caused a major humanitarian catastrophe in Mariupol. The invaders are bombing unarmed residents and blocking humanitarian aid.

According to Mariupol Mayor Vadym Boychenko, more than 20,000 civilians have died in the city since the Russian invasion.

About 120,000 civilians remain in the city. Attempts to evacuate civilians continue.
