Zelensky calls on UN to assist in rescuing wounded from Azovstal

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has appealed to the UN for help in saving the lives of the remaining injured Ukrainians trapped in the Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol, Qazet.az reports.

Zelensky thanked the UN for a successful evacuation from the steel plant this week - which rescued more than 100 people from the steelworks - but called on the UN to "assist in the removal of all the wounded from Azovstal".

"The lives of the people who remain there are in danger," Zelensky said.
