The invaders started the first loading of rolled metal from the Mariupol port, according to the Advisor to the Mayor of Mariupol Petr Andryushchenko.

According to the Advisor, last Friday a large group of Kadyrovites had entered Mariupol. And on Saturday they resumed real attempts to load rolled metal products in the port of Mariupol.

The occupants have started the first loading of rolled metal from the Mariupol port. Since there is no confirmation of the unblocking of the new gate, the metal will be taken out in small batches.

In his opinion, this indicates that the invaders gave Mariupol "at the mercy of the Kadyrovites for plunder and there will be no restoration, only looting and terror", and also that "not without the help of the Kadyrovites, the invaders found Mariupol specialists who can do the impossible".

What happened before: On May 24, the Russian Defense Ministry announced the complete demining of the port in occupied Mariupol and the opening on Wednesday morning of a humanitarian corridor for the exit of foreign ships.

On May 27, the Metinvest group stated that the seizure and resumption of the work of the Mariupol port indicate that the occupiers can export metallurgical products approximately to ports in Rostov, Taganrog, Novorossiysk, Tuapse and occupied Sevastopol.
