VOA: Ukrainian Volunteers Prepare to Defend Mariupol

MARIUPOL, UKRAINE — Despite the ongoing ceasefire in Ukraine, soldiers in the city of Mariupol fear that pro-Russian separatists may be getting ready to attack. The separatists must take or encircle the city if they wish to gain land access to Crimea, which was annexed by Russia early last year. But Ukrainian forces, many of them volunteers, say they are determined to defend it.

On the hills overlooking the sea of Azov, soldiers of the Ukrainian army are digging in.

WNU Editor: To early to say where the next big battles will occur (if they occur) .... but if the war does return, Mariupol will definitely be a target.
