He told the BBC: “We received information that the Russian army has captured our largest hospital … and they are using our patients and doctors as hostages.

“We can confirm this information and the governor of the Donetsk region has also confirmed it. We received information that there were 400 people there. “

Pavlo Kyrylenko, governor of the Donetsk region, said Russian troops were pulling people from nearby buildings and forcing them into hospitals.

According to Kyrylo Tymoshenko, a senior Zelensky aide, about 4,000 cars drove northwest to Zaporizhzhia, what is believed to be the largest-ever evacuation from Mariupol.
