According to Planet satellite images, trenches were dug in  cemetery in Stary Krym village near Mariupol after March 24, while  Russian occupation of  settlement began on March 10.

 

This is the third place of mass burial of people near Mariupol, which was discovered with help of a satellite. Old Crimea village is located 5 km from Mariupol.

 

First trenches appeared after March 24, and at the photo from April 7, in two weeks, they changed:  burial place increased. Part of the trenches is buried. Fresh pictures from April 24 capture new burials: length of mass burial has increased from 60-70 to 200 meters.

 

 Mayor of Mariupol Vadym Boychenko noted that he knew about removal of the bodies of  dead residents of  Old Crimean cemetery, where they are buried in places of mass burial.

 

“We know about these mass graves, because these fascists - and I have no other words - involve local population for burial, for food. They told us that you need to "work hours" to work to give you food, water… Now in Mariupol there are not enough humanitarians they import, so people have to do it, ”says Boychenko.
