Russian government denies responsibility for the attack and blames the Azov Battalion for the explosions; around 130 people have already been rescued at the scene
About 1.3 thousand people are still trapped underground in a theater that was bombed and destroyed in the city of Mariupolat Ukraine, on Wednesday, 16. The site was being used as a shelter by Ukrainian civilians, but, according to local authorities, it was attacked by Russian bombings. About 130 people have already been rescued at the site, but the number of civilians trapped underground is up to ten times higher, according to international news agencies.
The Ministry of Defense of Russia refutes the accusations of Kiev and holds the nationalist group responsible Azov Battalion by the explosion. After the destruction of the site, the government of Italy offered to help rebuild the theater. The explosion takes place in the midst of the siege against the city. More than 300,000 Ukrainians are still inside the municipality, surrounded by Russian and separatist troops. Ukrainian government estimates indicate that around 20,000 people have died and that 80% of homes have been destroyed.
