The food supply in the Ukrainian city of Mariupol is “decreasing day by day”, according to a city council statement released on Thursday.
The statement called the situation in the city “critical”, and said that with the entrances to the city blocked, there was no way to deliver food and water.
“The city of Mariupol is on the brink of a humanitarian catastrophe,” the city council said.
The maternity and children’s hospital that was bombed on Wednesday – in an attack that left three dead and 17 injured – is located in Mariupol.
The attack came despite Russia agreeing to a 12-hour break in hostilities to allow refugees to evacuate in several cities.
The city council posted a video of the devastated hospital and accused Russian forces of dropping several bombs.
“The destruction is enormous,” the council said. “The medical center building where the children were recently treated is completely destroyed.”
