“Most of the 160,000 remaining residents have no light, communication, medicine, heat or water,” the MoD said in its intelligence report.
“Russian forces have prevented humanitarian access, likely to pressure defenders to surrender,” it said.
People have been able to evacuate beleaguered Mariupol only by private car or on foot, Ukraine officials said, since larger evacuation operations have failed due to heavy bombardments.
