Ukrainian civilians evacuated from Mariupol's steel plant
BBC, 03 May 2022
Russian troops have launched new attacks on the Azovstal steel works in Mariupol, after a group of about 100 civilians were evacuated.
On Sunday, these women and children who have spent more than 60 days in maze-like tunnels under the steel plant, were evacuated to nearby Zaporizhzhia.
The site was built to withstand a nuclear blast and when war broke out, many civilians used the vast underground chambers of the plant as a refuge.
Hundreds of Ukrainian women and children remain trapped beneath Mariupol's huge Azovstal steel plant, the city's mayor has said.
