This aerial view of the stricken Ukrainian city of Mariupol shows how nearly every building has been ravaged by more than a month of continuous Russian bombardment.
Vast apartment blocks are now charred, hollowed-out wrecks, with most windows blown out, and barely a single structure on the skyline is still intact.
Smoke can be seen rising in the distance, an indication that the unrelenting shelling of civilian areas is ongoing, with Russian troops on the brink of overcoming staunch Ukrainian resistance in the key strategic port.
