Russian invaders are attempting to break into the territory of Mariupol-based Azovstal plant in several places, writes Ukrinform.

The relevant statement was made during a nationwide telethon, referring to Mariupol Patrol Police Department Head Mykhailo Vershynin.

“Artillery and aviation preparations have lasted for almost a day. As the buses left, they made a pause. They started to launch strikes night and day. Now they are storming the plant in several places. We are keeping the defense, fighting back”, - said Vershynin.
