Brit trapped in Ukrainian metropolis of Mariupol after evacuation bid aborted
A British man and his spouse are amongst civilians trapped within the Ukrainian metropolis of Mariupol.
A deliberate evacuation was aborted earlier at the moment amid accusations Russian forces had bombed humanitarian corridors – regardless of agreeing to a seven hour ceasefire.
School lecturer Charlie Gilkerson, 68, went to a pickup level within the hope of being taken to security.
However he says buses which had been alleged to take away civilians from the fight zone weren’t there and the Russian aggression had not stopped.
He texted frantic daughter Beverley saying: “Positively no ceasefire! No person is there!”
Beverley, from Wakefield, West Yorks, is now desperately trying to find choices to deliver Charlie, and spouse Iryna, 58, again to Britain.
Her dad, who’s in Ukraine on an prolonged vacation, has restricted entry to very important blood strain treatment and might’t stroll far.
