Russia still trying to gain control of Mariupol

Russian troops are still trying to establish complete control of the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol, Qazet.az reports according to officials.

The capture of Mariupol by Russia, if it happens, will be psychologically significant for both sides in this war.

A Russian victory in Mariupol would enable the Kremlin to show its population through state-controlled media that Russia was achieving its aims and making progress.
