In the evening, air defense was operating in the city.

Last night, in Mariupol, occupied by the Russian invaders, the air defense system was activated.

Advisor to the mayor of Mariupol Pyotr Andryushchenko announced this in his Telegram channel. According to him, Russian air defense operated from the territory of the Mariupol Ilyich Metallurgical Plant at about 19:10.

“The result is obvious. Unpleasant for the occupiers. Moreover, gossip spread around the city about “the arrival in the Mega area” – this is not far from the registry office of the Kalmiussky district. However, there was no arrival there. It was not there. Good,” Andryushchenko added.
