Pentagon Says Russian Navy Is Bombing Mariupol

The U.S. Defense Department said Tuesday that Russian ships are bombing the southeastern Ukrainian city of Mariupol, according to data.
Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told a news conference that the U.S. has indications that Russian vessels in the Sea of Azov are contributing to the assault on the port town of Mariupol with projectile fire.
In parallel, “it is difficult for us to quantify it nor can we get to the detail about the type of ammunition that is being used, but it is quite clear that in the last two days there has been an increase in Russian naval activity in the Black Sea,” he said.

On February 24, Russia began the invasion of Ukraine, which, for its part, is receiving military support from the United States, which is supplying it with military equipment to defend itself.
Currently, Mariupol focuses attention on the war with Russia, in a siege that has been going on for days and that has the prospect of prolonging.
Some 400,000 people have been trapped in Mariupol for more than two weeks amid intense shelling that has cut off central electricity, heating and water supplies, according to local sources.
Russia on Sunday urged Ukrainian forces to surrender and leave Mariupol “unarmed,” which Kiev called “delirium.”
Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov said Tuesday that The Mariupol resistance, heavily bombed by the Russians days ago, is “saving” other cities, such as Dnipro, Kiev and Odessa, from the intensification of an offensive against them.
