even better that it’s propaganda funded on a voluntary basis by its very victims ! The state mouthpiece since inception. Excelsior ! ‘Ignorance is Strength’ !
It is war, either surrender or fight.
Surrendering soon
What would the Russian soldiers fight for, so a bunch of corrupt kleptocrats can get richer at the expense of their own future? Clearly they are not at all motivated to do so.
@@babblo1389
And more interesting discoveries will be unearthed such as the Canadian general who's now a prisoner of the Russians.
surrender to the firing squad, or fight, is more the case. Russia made their views quite clear, they want the people of the Azov sea "cleansed" from this world.
Yes and let the hostages free.
One of the characteristics of cowards is to put civilians as shields and claim that they are surrounded.. let the civilians leave the factory.. and tell the Ukrainian army to fight the Russians with manliness.

@@andyochieng4390 The mission of the army is to protect your people, not to throw them into war ...

@log140 Да ты не нервничай так. Велком Укрэйн, дак велком. Россия пришла навсегда можешь про свою Украину забыть. Вас предупреждали, вы не поняли. Скоро вам уже некому будет воевать. Жаль у нас в России не проводят даже частичную мобилизацию... Уже бы давно с вашим нацистским режимом покончили и с НАТО до кучи. Молитесь на Путина, он стоит и сдерживает народ России... иначе на защиту Донбасса пришло бы не 150 000, а миллиона 3... Но видимо это сделано для того, чтоб весь мир увидел какие вы на самом деле фашисты... Война с вами ещё даже не начиналась, а вам уже скоро воевать нечем будет... 45 мильный конвой который ты видел это даже не 5% войск... Ты там в своём угаре похоже не совсем понимаешь обстановку да? :) Это у вас только начало, скоро вместе с вами в очередь на заправку встанут в Европе в знак солидарности, а потом и за хлебом и постепенно шаг за шагом... ты начнешь понимать, что всё это время тебе вешали лапшу на уши по тв. Регион за регионом будет уходить. Вы нацики будете бесконечно "побеждать и возвращать" Крым, Донбасс, Херсон и другие регионы, а значит спецоперация будет продолжаться и продолжаться с чем тебя и поздравляю. Только дайте нам повод. Военным путем Россию не победить, а санкции вообще никак не вредят, кроме тех кто их применяет ))) Как итог США придется договариваться с Россией и только тогда вы поймете, что США и Европа вас использовали...

Civilians were forced to be there...not trapped....hello
Now its been reported that the soldiers want to trade civilians for food. Are they prisoners?
wow, and nobody sees them as hostage's yet ?
Yes they use the civilians as shield and now as trade for food.....very brave people
Everyone knew they were hostages.They are Russian speaking Ukranians from the east.They have been bombing them for eight years.
They were traded today but not all, only 50.
Using civilians as human shields is repulsive. This should be condemned. Since the azov battalion are so brave they should let the civilians go and face their war.
What is repulsive is the cowardly attack of Ukraine by those weak Russians!!!
Nobody wants to hear that. American narrative is the news of the day

@@rinneganitachi4840 It is nothing compared to the losses the Russians will face next!!!
@@theChiral Of course it is as we control the narrative!!!!
Simple question: Why would there be civilians in a steel mill unless someone wanted to put them there? Why?
PREVENT HEM BEING INSTANTLY KILLED......USING THEM FOR PROTECTION, DISGUSTING
Ask the Azov people....
Some of them are their wife (Azov wife)
Some of them are their niece (Azov niece)
All based on interview ... I have seen the video ...
Some of them grandma prefer to go to Russian Controlled Territory but to bad, no material about why she in that Azovstal plant from her interview ...
We must wait a little longer ...
It's a bunker. They'd be relatively safe from bombing 6 stories underground.
Why were civilians in many other besieged cities like Stalingrad, blockaded Leningrad and so on?
In Mariupol the evacuation on grand scale started too late due to the fact that the city was quickly surrounded and heavy bombardment as well as street fighting became an everyday thing there. The civilians took whatever cover they could and naturally steelworks that allegedly can withstand a nuclear strike was considered as one of the safiest places in the city at that time.
Then they heard about people being forcefully transferred to Russia, they heard about Bucha massacre and other things and were too terrified to do anything. They even asked Azov battalion to protect them.
Moreover it is most likely the main reason why Azov couldn't fight its way out of the surrounded city despite the fact that even being outnumbered and under constant shelling it conducted a number of successful counter attacks on tactical level.
Fighting their way out would have meant to leave the civilians (some of them in pretty bad shape, wounded etc) to their fate.
Stop using civilians as human shield.
They using civilians as human shield
It's not in the Azov battalion's interest to allow all the civilians to leave the steelworks complex, because - once it happens - nothing will stop the Russians from leveling the plant and all its defenders.

@@Nathan-sw8kb salty asov
There was a cease fire and some of the civilians were evacuated few days ago ( there is footage with them literally walking away from azovstal) ... Why do they keep the rest in there ?
There's footage of dead civilians that were supposed to be part of the crowd that evacuated but Russia did not abide by their cease fire GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT. And to add, Russia claimed a three day cease fire during daylight today, tomorrow and Saturday but guess who has lied AGAIN and intensified their attack today ? 🤔
Russian troops have deliberately targeted civilians they even tried to hinder the 3 days ceasefire today but let's not let Facts get in the way of your bullshit
Some are afraid that they will be forced to relocate to Russia.
Yeah. Russia has a habit of abducting civilians never to be seen again.
@@paulmitchell2468 it happened under UN supervision
Russia isn't preventing civilians from leaving so why aren't they. I'd say they were prevented from leaving. Funny they captured a NATO general.

"Trapped for months" - 2 months, 1 week, 5 days this invasion has been going on. The steelworks didn't become a deathtrap until sometime later. This one didn't spend long in front of an editor, did it?
No, they recieve their script from Nato. By the way Azov has been shelling civilians since 2014. Those in the plant are probably hostages.
"2 months" is, by definition, months. She said they're there from March 2nd, today it's May the 5th.
These news segements are a joke. Clearly.
@@ApusApus I was hoping nobody would be pedantic enough about such a grave matter to use this line of reasoning, because it side-steps the point I was trying to make - that they said "months" to artificially make a dire situation seem even more dire to serve their narrative and manipulate the viewer's emotions (which doesn't need the fluff in the first place).
Congratulations, your news is not incorrect on a technicality. What lofty standards we have these days. The funny thing is - they don't even have to do this in the first place. This is the most black and white war the 21st century has yet seen, yet they still feel the need to manicure how we feel about it.
@Lilac CZK chief.. OSCE hasn't been operational since what, October 2021? They literally pulled out before Jan 2022. No coincedence, because for 8 years they were recording ONLY Ukrainian's killing their own people.

Well they want to get evacuated but wont surrender to the Russian occupiers

If Zelensky have a heart....he should tell the soldiers to surrender. It is a losing battle.
Lasted this long cuz those human shields they have
No because there in a Soviet bunker..
Pay attention bud 👍
There should be a plaque not only Ukraine, but in London (and other places) with the names of the soldiers for the sacrifice they gave to europe
Last I heard, Azov were requesting ton of food for release of 15 civilians, Maybe UN & IRC could negotiate a better deal for a ton of foodstuffs and meds.
A one ton of food? For 15 civilians?
Shows that they are not caring at all about civilians lifes, as otherwise they would be letting them go without any conditions. But they know that they have human shields that is denying Russia killing them, but they don't want to starve either...
2000 soldiers and hostages
Liars...they are not trapped. Zelensky ordered the fighters to remain and continue fighting, rather than surrender.

The civilians in the steelworks are being prevented from leaving by the soldiers and mercenaries who keep them there and they are trying to barter their release for food !

The Russians have repeatedly offered corridors for the civilians. However, the Ukrainian and Azov soldiers use the people as a shield. That's why the area wasn't stormed or completely destroyed.

Does that include the Russian speaking Ukranians in the east of Ukraine who have been bombed by Azov troops for eight years.

What really happened in Azovstal steelworks is that, it got completely surrounded by the Russian troops and their allies, chechen irregulars, DPR & LPR militias.
The factory has a network of underground tunnels and bunkers, where a few thousand men from Azov battalion, foreign mercenaries, along with allegedly some senior serving NATO countries generals.
These guys had been promised by the Kiev regime to hand on tight, and that the reinforcements were coming.
They never came.
Essentially those men have been abandoned, left to their fate.
Low on ammo and food, and completely encircled, they only have 2 options left before them.
1 - Surrender
2- Die fighting for a lost cause.
Proof?
My understanding is that they are shot if they try to surrender...
They have also gone into negotiations to free some non combatants in excange for food.
@3395ZHQ There really isn't any fighting going on in Mariopol... There is some milatary personel in soviet era bomb shelters that seem to have orders to shoot if they surrender... They have been there for like two months... I am thinking that there are some poeple among the ukraine millatary personel that they don't want the world to know about...
There are unconfirmed reports that those Ukraine personel are negotiating with the russians to send food for letting civilians free.
@@urrywest They had been offered a ceasefire on several occasions to free the civilians, but they wouldn’t as they had been using them as human shields.
Finally they have relented and allowed the civilians to leave.
In regards to being shot after surrendering, that is nothing but media propaganda. Nothing could be further from the truth. A few thousand Ukrainians who have so far surrendered since the beginning of the special military operations, are being kept in Crimea as POWs, who will one day return to their families when it’s all over(hopefully by the end of summer).
On the contrary, there’s clear video evidence of Russian surrendered soldiers getting executed by the Ukrainian soldiers, which is a clear violation of the Geneva convention.
I recall how right at the start of the conflict, the heroic last stand of the Ukrainian soldiers on the snake island went viral throughout the western media.
However, as it turned out, in reality, all of them had surrendered without a single casualty, and are in Crimea as POWs!
Just like the famous saying goes, “Truth is the first casualty of war”.
Wonder how many Americans and European soldiers are in the steel mill. Has to be a good reason to not let them surrender. I would expect an extraction move from the west or sacrifice of all. A Mickey Finn would be merciful to captured all .
Surrender
I wish the West would do more, much more for these brave people.
They are Just stupid , No one will survive
Civilians have been in so many occasions given the chance to leave. What are they hiding from? They are being used as human shields.
So... where are all the international weapons that were promised, planes , howitzers???

Yeah because some started coming in the beginning of March, as Russia entered Mariupol offensive on Azov Battalion. On Russia Today (blocked everywhere now lol) there was a journo walking around with the Russian military while civilians were coming out of their buildings. That live broadcast was very insightful because he was interviewing civilians coming out of their buildings.
I don't know WHY these people are hiding in the factory, unless they are the families of Azov Battalian soldiers who have holed up in the factory. Most parts of Mariupol civilians are out and about, rebuilding etc. Russian soliders are also providing logistics/water etc.
I think they turned up with lots of buses but only a few came out of azovstal so they also evacuated others from the wider area.
We might have to move underground with idiot puppets like zelensky and brandon.
Where is NATO,UN to help them,to send food amunition,etc?
Propaganda artillery firing! Must be propaganda plea for help too? 😊😊😊
*Russia: We will do "cease-fire" to evacuate Civilians.*
*Zelensky: "We will fight till the end"*
*Russia: The "cease-fire" time is up*
*Zelensky: "We want to evacuate civilians but Russia don't want". It is war crime. 😫😱😭*
Eussia could have ended this with a couple of bunker buster bombs but for the civilians. The west are the propagandists.
So why not let the civilians out? Stop hiding behind them!
Because the Russian arnt giving them a chance to take up arms. They see them as an enermy.
Regardless if civilians, they want to see them as ants and pour boiling water over the nest.
I feel for the Ukrainians resistance.
Why people? Why no one goes to help them.. I don't understand where is humanity?
ss batallion asov - don't understand where is humanity?
on 0:06 she says "resistance", but on 0:12 she says "trapped" !!!!! bravooooo
Western median are the most dangerous people
A Canadian general was captured in Mariupol.
What did a Canadian general do in Azovstal steel?
How many general from foreign countries are trapped there?
Just a question.
WW3 already started
why didn't they pick them up all at once when they told us they have evacuate and let the military's continue to fight
I dont understand why it took 3 months to evacuate and there is still people …
Zelensky refused the offer, hence Azovstal not let them out
Why did the civilians decide to go into the steelworks instead of escaping through the many roads leading out of the city before the Russians got there?
Because the Russian military was shooting people trying to escape, so many of them were probably too afraid to even try.
From other news sources which does not ban news from the other side of the war (similar to youtube starts with a r ends with e) the civilians where taken in by the Azov militants. Now the civilian's don't have any way to communicate with the outside and rely on Azov. So the civilians wont even know they can leave and that there is a ceasefire if the militants don't tell them and keep them as human shields. They only released civilian's in exchange for food. Its very hard to know what's happening with all the propaganda so its important to hear both sides and very suspicious when one side talks of freedom of speech, democracy but bans all news from the other side
