More than 3,000 people evacuated from Mariupol

More than 3,000 people evacuated from Mariupol, Zelensky says

He touted the successful evacuation of civilians on Friday through humanitarian corridors in three regions: Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia.

Qazet.az reports that nearly half of the more than 6,000 evacuees fled the besieged port city of Mariupol, he said.

"We are separately agreeing on the removal of the wounded and dead from the city," Zelensky noted, adding Turkey was mediating between Russia and Ukraine on the issue.
