YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Russia says a total of 1700 Ukrainian fighters have now surrendered at the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol. If confirmed, that would be 700 more since Wednesday.

Moscow says most have been taken to a prison colony in Russian-controlled territory, while the injured are in hospital. These images come from Russia's Defense Ministry. The International Red Cross says it has registered hundreds of prisoners of war from the steel plant, including wounded fighters. Kyiv hopes to get the soldiers back in a prisoner swap, while Moscow has threatened to put some on trial for war crimes.
