Mariupol Mayor Vadym Boychenko told Associated Press on April 11 that more than 10,000 civilians have died in the Russian siege of his city, and that the death toll could surpass 20,000 after weeks of attacks. It is not possible to determine the exact death toll. Boychenko added that there were still 120,000 civilians in Mariupol.

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.

We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.

Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?
