Residents of Mariupol are evacuating the city, which is under heavy Russian attacks since the beginning of the invasion. 24 buses were sent to the city to evacuate residents of Mariupol, where electricity, water and internet are cut off, and where basic food needs cannot be met.
Buses that are assigned for children and women will go through Berdyansk, after leaving Mairupol, and from there to the city of Zaporozhye. Police will accompany the convoy during the process.
In Cologne, Germany, 20,500 people were evacuated after three unexploded World War II bombs were discovered during roadworks in the Deutz district. Authorities launched the city’s largest evacuation since 1945 to safely defuse the bombs, which included two one-ton and one 500-kg US-made devices.
The operation affected 58 hotels, 9 schools, a hospital, nursing homes, and museums. Three bridges over the Rhine, rail lines, and ship traffic were temporarily shut down. Bomb disposal teams from Düsseldorf worked to defuse the bombs during the day. Such wartime bomb finds remain common in Germany, especially in North Rhine-Westphalia.
