Quote: "The occupiers are using the remaining infrastructure of Mariupol for military purposes – to strengthen their positions and fortifications on the contact line. For this purpose, they are building railway tracks to quickly respond to problematic moments on the contact line in Donetsk Oblast. Mariupol is being used as a logistics base for the Russian military machine."
