Ukrainians Flee Mariupol as Russian Forces Push to Take Port City https://www.wsj.com/articles/ukrainians-flee-mariupol-as-russian-forces-push-to-take-port-city-11647947707
ZAPORIZHZHIA, Ukraine—As the battle for Mariupol intensifies, civilians fleeing the conflict told of escalating violence as Russian and Ukrainian forces fought street by street through the downtown of the historic port city and Russian airstrikes, artillery and mortar rounds have gutted entire neighborhoods.
Hundreds of refugees from Mariupol arrive here daily in a grim procession of cars, with shattered windscreens and shrapnel scars speaking to the ordeal endured by their passengers. Taped to the windows are homemade signs reading “children” in Russian, and strips of white material tied to the door handles, scant protection from the war raging over their city
They pull into the parking lot of a hardware store on the outskirts of Zaporizhzhia—now a way station for people fleeing the city on their way to safety further west, or abroad—part of the more than 10 million people uprooted by the fighting. Nearly a month since Russia invaded Ukraine, it is on the verge of taking Mariupol in what would be the first major city to fall under its control. But Mariupol is a shattered prize.

Destruction of any kind is inhuman . Failure of the policy leads to such cases as we see in Mariupol .
