He noted that without a regime of silence, almost 100,000 people were deported from Mariupol to government-controlled areas.
“There is no light, no communication, no food, no water in the city – this is a rather complex humanitarian component, which has already crossed the line of understanding,” Boychenko added about the situation in the city.
