Russian soldiers are holding patients and doctors hostage at a Mariupol hospital, claimed a regional governor, amidst a brutal siege.
Parents have also been forced to leave premature babies in a hospital in the Ukrainian city with around 350,000 people trapped with food and water running out, say reports.
Horrific scenes of bombed out buildings and street fighting have been played out in recent days as the Russian army shells the city and the Ukrainian residents are ready to battle to the death to keep them out.
