Ukrainians who are trapped in the besieged city of Mariupol are “starving” and have “no food, no water, no medicine” and have been forced to eat “stray dogs” to survive.

There are around 100,000 Ukrainians who are still trapped in Mariupol and is “under constant shelling, under constant bombing.”

A Ukrainian man admitted that they had no choice but to “eat a stray dog” to survive as there are mass food shortages in the city.

Thousands of Mariupol residents ‘forcibly deported’ and sent to Russian ‘filtration camps’ just as the ‘Nazi’s’ did in WWII

Local Alexandr Volodko, 21, told The Telegraph, “We spotted a stray dog, it was already not doing well. We were so desperate we cooked it.

“We were starving and I am ashamed to say it.”

Aide agencies have been warning for weeks that amid the Russian invasion the Ukraine is facing a “humanitarian catastrophe.”

Sasha Volkov, the deputy head of the International Committee of the Red Cross’s delegation in Mariupol, described horrific scenes in the city.

She said, “Some people still have food, but I’m not sure for how long it will last.

“Many people report having no food for children. People started to attack each other for food.

“People started to ruin someone’s car to take the gasoline out.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned his citizens are completely surrounded by Russia’s military.

He said, “No food, no water, no medicine.

“Under constant shelling, under constant bombing.”

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) claimed civilians who have been evacuated by the Russians are being funnelled through camps, such as one in Dokuchaievsk, in Donetsk, to then be moved onward to Russia.

The MoD warned, “A number of northern regions are mentioned as the final destination, including Sakhalin.

“Ukrainians are being offered official employment through employment centres.

“Those who agree receive documents banning them from leaving Russian regions for two years.”

Ukrainian MP Inna Sovusan told Times Radio, “They’re taking Ukrainian citizens, sending them through what are called filtration camps, and then relocating them to distant parts of Russia to work for free.

“This is the logic of Nazi Germany.”

Pavlo Kyrylenko, the head of the Donetsk regional administration said, “The occupiers are sending the residents of Mariupol to filtration camps, checking their phones and seizing (their) Ukrainian documents.”

The city council added, “People who are being forcibly taken to Russia are being stripped of their Ukrainian passports and given a piece of paper that carries no legal weight and is not recognised by the entire civilised world.”
