Putin claims victory in battle for Mariupol
Russian President Vladimir Putin says Mariupol is largely under control after two months of bombardment while about 2,000 Ukrainian fighters remain at the Azovstal steel mill and civilians are trapped. He ordered a siege rather than a frontal assault to spare Russian lives, as satellite imagery shows hundreds of graves near Mariupol and Manhush. Ukrainian officials and local leaders stress the city remains Ukrainian, despite Russia declaring a major victory and targeting the Donbas beyond the port city. The confrontation coincides with Western arms deliveries and Biden’s new security aid, as the war widens along a 300 mile front.
