Petro Andriushchenko, adviser to the Mariupol mayor, posted this on Telegram and published a corresponding video.

"De facto [Russian invaders] deployed another training ground in Mariupol district. Now near Babakh-Tarama, Yalta, Manhush. Not counting three small ones in the city and two more in Nikolske district. They get ready and train. The number of personnel has decreased due to the redeployment to the front, but the new group is already training. As many as 40,000 [soldiers] are stationed in and around Mariupol," Andriushchenko wrote about what was recorded by members of the Resistance in captured Mariupol.

He also added that the movement of invaders with ammunition towards Berdiansk has decreased at the moment but does not stop.
