First civilians rescued from last Mariupol stronghold but 1,000 still trapped inside

The first civilians have been rescued from beneath the Mariupol steel plant, where they were surrounded by Russian troops.

However, 1,000 civilians are still trapped beneath with some suffering from rotting wounds, as gangrene sets in.

The Azovstal Iron and Steel Works plant became the last Ukrainian stronghold in the besieged southern port city.
