Russian tanks enter Mariupol as fighting hampers Ukrainian evacuation

"Russian tanks entered the battered Ukrainian port city Mariupol Saturday after relentless
bombardment since the start of the invasion on Feb. 24.
Street fighting in the besieged city hampered efforts to evacuate civilians and rescue people still trapped in the basement of a theater used for shelter that officials said Russia bombed on Wednesday.
Should Mariupol fall, Russia will have a land corridor from Crimea, stretching for most of the south coast and up the eastern regions of Ukraine." NYP
