The third round of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine on Monday
The two sides last met on Thursday in western Belarus and agreed on humanitarian corridors in their second round. They should help people leave the besieged towns and villages. But on Saturday, evacuations from the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol failed. Both sides accused each other of violating the ceasefire agreement. Moscow announced this evening that it would continue the attacks on Mariupol and the city of Volnovakha.
