UPDATE: Greek Foreign Ministry confirms Russian aviation is responsible for the murder of three Greeks and the injury of another six in Sartana, Mariupol.
Reportedly Russian forces are bypassing minor coastal towns so they can surround Mariupol.
It saddens me to say that we can expect more Greeks to be killed, especially when Greek villages like Gratnitne are directly on the line of contact.

A truly dark day in Black Sea Hellenism.

With Russian forces closing in on Mariupol, let’s also remember the brave Greek diplomats still in the city, serving the Greek community under this intense Russian bombardment that has already murdered 7 ethnic Greeks.
Russia officially denies that its Air Force were operating around Sartana, where earlier today 2 Greeks (according to the FM Dendias) were killed.

Brave Greek journalists are trapped in Mariupol. Greek diplomats still in Mariupol too.
This is the crisis that proved in deed and words that our ethnic communities will not be abandoned like previously. A testament to the foreign ministry under Dendias. newpost.gr/ellada/621a77e…

Ukrainian soldiers are preventing some people from leaving Mariupol just as the Russians are closing in on the city - Greeks stuck in the middle, 10 already killed in Russian bombardments.
Let’s hope the battle for Mariupol can end quickly, with as little bloodshed as possible.
The Greek community in Mariupol have complained for years about the Azov Batallion.
Azov soldiers killed a Greek only days before the war started only for speaking Russian - that’s Azov.

It will be interesting to see if they end up in the hands of the Azov Battalion who since 2014 have led a campaign of terror in Mariupol, including against the Greek communities.
