Mariupol steelworks: ‘Soldiers may only have days left’ says wife of Ukrainian solider

At Russia's Victory Day Parade in Moscow, there could be no fanfare announcing the fall of Mariupol.


Although 90% of the city has been destroyed, up to 2000 Ukrainian soldiers from the AZOV regiment are still holding out in the steelworks that sprawl over 4 square miles. 


The Azovstal steelworks are under attack and the conditions inside said to be desperate, with a growing number of the wounded and dead. 


Kirsty Wark speaks to Yulia Fedosiuk whose husband Arseniy is one of the soldiers inside the steelworks.
