Putin lied, Russian military trying to take steel plant to Mariupol

Ukrainian officials said Russian forces on Saturday attacked a steel factory in the destroyed port city of Mariupol, apparently in an effort to eliminate the last pocket of Ukrainian resistance in the strategic city that the Kremlin claims its military has brought under control.

The announcement of the attack was made by an adviser to Ukraine's presidency as about 1,000 civilians remained housed at the Azovstal factory along with the remaining Ukrainian fighters.

Meanwhile Russian forces continued the offensive in the eastern Donbas region amid fierce Ukrainian counterattacks.

The presidential adviser, Oleksiy Arestovich, said during a news conference that Russian forces had resumed air strikes on the massive coastal factory and were trying to force their way inside it, which would represent a change from the order Russian President Vladimir Putin gave two days ago.

Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu reported to Russian President Putin on Thursday that all of Mariupol, except Azovstal, had been "liberated" by the Russians.

The Russian president ordered him not to put troops into the complex, but to block the object, an apparent attempt to make ukrainians starve and force them to surrender.

Ukrainian officials have estimated that about 2,000 of their troops are inside the factory along with civilians who have been housed in the underground tunnels of the object. Zorti Arestovic said Ukrainian forces were trying to withstand new attacks.
