Russia: Putin says no military operations are being conducted in Mariupol

Russian President Vladimir Putin said today that the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol had been “liberated” and that no military operations were being conducted there, the Kremlin said, in defiance of Kyiv’s version of events.

The Kremlin said President Putin had told Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan that Kyiv should “take responsibility” for the people who ransacked the Azofstal steel plant and called on fighters there to lay down their arms.

“The lives of prisoners of war are guaranteed, medical care and treatment are in accordance with international legal standards,” the Kremlin said in a telephone interview with the two leaders.
