The commander of “Azov” in Mariupol: “We continue to fight”

Kyiv, Ukraine. The deputy commander of the Azov Regiment, the last unit of the Ukrainian army to hold positions in the devastated port of Mariupol, said on Friday that his units will fight “as best they can” with Moscow forces, despite shortages of ammunition and food. . , water and medicines.

Speaking at the online session of the Kyiv Security Forum, Svyatoslav Palamar said that Russian forces continue to raid the Azovstal steel plant, the last stronghold of the Ukrainian resistance in Mariupol, where its forces are hiding.

“We continue to resist and follow orders from our senior political leaders to keep the line. We keep the defense and continue to fight no matter what,” he said.

Speaking to a panel featuring US generals Philip M. Breedlove and Wesley K. Clark, Palamar urged the US to assist in the evacuation of approximately 600 wounded soldiers from the Azovstal facility and the evacuation of the remaining Ukrainian forces.

Fighters of the Azov regiment living at the factory repeatedly refused to surrender in Moscow, citing fears of being killed or tortured.
