Quote: "Mariupol. Right now. War crimes. As a result of a long search and identification of places of mass burial of dead Mariupol residents, we established the fact of mass burial of dead Mariupol residents in the village of Mangush.
Russian occupiers have built several mass graves up to 30 metres in size each in the area of the bypass road, and the bodies of the dead are being transported there by trucks, in fact simply dumping them."
Details: The mayor's adviser noted that all the bodies were placed in plastic bags, which once again confirms the information previously announced by the authorities that the occupiers are accumulating the bodies of the dead in another location – near the industrial zone in Mariupol.
Andryushchenko stressed that this was "direct evidence of war crimes and attempts to cover them up".
He also published satellite images of the mass graves.

On 19 April, it became known that Russian occupiers in Mariupol were trying to "legalise" the burial of the civilians’ bodies, collecting data on the killed and missing Mariupol residents, and monitoring social media search groups of relatives.
