6 May 2022 – A Ukrainian commander at the Azovstal plant in Mariupol said “bloody battles” continue to unfold inside the complex after Russia breached the perimeter. Ukrainian officials say at least 50 civilians were evacuated from the plant Friday and the evacuation operation will continue Saturday. President Zelensky said he’s working on diplomatic efforts to save military forces that still remain in the complex. Ukrainian officials have posted images from Mariupol showing ongoing work by Russian forces to restore Soviet-era monuments. Kyiv’s mayor is urging citizens to “be aware” and stay inside Sunday into Monday around Russia’s annual Victory Day as Western officials warn President Putin could formally declare war on May 9, allowing him to step up his campaign.
