It is unclear if any of the 400 people thought to be sheltering in the G12 Art School survived
An art school being used as a bomb shelter in the once-vibrant seaside Ukrainian town of Mariupol has been flattened in the latest relentless, according to the Mariupol city council in a statement on its Telegram channel early Sunday.
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zenelensky said the attacks against Mariupol, which now include the art school, theater, and a maternity hospital, will “go down in history of responsibility for war crimes.” In a statement released early Sunday he said, “To do this to a peaceful city, what the occupiers did, is a terror that will be remembered for centuries to come.”
On Sunday, the U.K. Ministry of Defense, monitoring the situation closely, says there is no indication things will get better any time soon. “It is likely Russia will continue to use its heavy firepower to support assaults on urban areas as it looks to limit its own already considerable losses, at the cost of further civilian casualties,” U.K. Defense ministry said Sunday, adding that the constant bombardment has led to “widespread destruction and large numbers of civilian casualties.
