The bodies are in the streets. We can’t even count them anymore.” Like its neighbor Irpin, the town was the scene of fierce fighting and is unrecognizable.

In this district controlled by pro-Russians, aid is marked “z” and arrives from Donetsk. https://t.co/yYu3vuQsdo09h25: Or this desperate woman who lost her nine-year-old daughter in Mariupol and doesn’t know where to look for her. The city is big and it’s impossible to communicate from one neighborhood to another at the moment. https://t.co/dcvR7L9Tmv09h25: No more network or electricity and some residents of Mariupol ask us to send a message to their relatives in Russia or Ukraine, like this young woman who gives me this note for her brother who she hasn’t been able to reach since early March: “We’re alive. Your sister” https://t.co/0H4h334knW09h25: I should point out that our filming is supervised by the pro-Russian separatists who control the neighborhoods concerned. Impossible to go there without their agreement #Marioupol https://t.co/UkfTugwYdS09h24: We were able to access the center of #Marioupol. The city is devastated. Residents still there are desperate.

A proportion not easy to cut at once. 09:03 am: While the European Union (EU) is 44% dependent on Russian gas, will the crisis be an opportunity to review the energy future of European countries and invest in renewable energy for EU countries dependent on Russian gas?
