Evacuees from Mariupol are seen upon arrival at the car park of a shopping centre on the outskirts of the city of Zaporizhzhia, which is now a registration centre for displaced people, on March 16, 2022. Some 20,000 residents have been allowed to leave Mariupol through a humanitarian corridor agreed with Russian forces. But exhausted, shivering evacuees speak of harrowing escape journeys and rotting corpses littering the streets. Mariupol is facing a humanitarian catastrophe according to aid agencies, since heavy bombardment has left some 400,000 inhabitants with no running water or heating and food running short. More than 2,100 residents have been killed in Mariupol since the Russian invasion, according to city authorities. (Photo by Emre Caylak/AFP Photo)
