"1,000 people trapped in theatrical debris in Mariupol". "1,000 duine sáinnithe i smionagar amharclainne i Mariupol". Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says more than a thousand people are trapped in theatrical debris in the city of Mariupol, some of which was flattened by Russian bombing attacks yesterday. Deir Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelensky go bhfuil os cionn míle duine sáinnnithe i smionagar amharclainne i gcathair Mariupol ar leacaíodh cuid di nuair a rinne fórsaí Rúiseacha ionsaí buamála uirthi arú inné. Rescuers reportedly boarded 130 people from being pulled out of the wreckage alive, but there is no indication or description of the majority of people - women and children - who were sheltered in the theater. Tuairiscítear bordáil le 130 duine a bheith tarraingthe amach as an smionagar ina mbeatha ag lucht tarrthála, ach níl tásc ná tuairisc ar bhunáite na ndaoine - mná agus leanaí - a bhí ar foscadh san amharclann. The refugees were in the basement of the house when the place was blown up, and rescuers are on their toes digging up the piles and rubble that have accumulated on top of them. In íoslach an tí a bhí na dídeanaithe nuair a séideadh an áit, agus tá lucht tarrthála ar a mbionda ag cartadh na gcaideanna agus na spallaí atá carntha sa mhullach orthu. The Russians denied that they had not bombed the theater and claimed that they do not attack civilians. Shéan na Rúisigh nár bhuamáil siad an amharclann agus mhaígh nach n-ionsaíonn siad sibhialtaigh. The bombing is more intense and the crisis in Mariupol more intense than any other member of Ukraine since Russia invaded the country over three weeks ago. Is déine an bombardú agus is géire an ghéarchéim i Mariupol ná aon bhall eile den Úcráin ó rinne an Rúis ionradh ar an tír os cionn trí seachtaine ó shin. The people of the city have been under severe siege by the Russian Army from almost the beginning, and are threatened with famine and disease for lack of supply. Tá muintir na cathrach faoi dhianléigear ag Arm na Rúise ón tús beagnach, agus tá gorta agus galar ag bagairt orthu de cheal riar a gcáis. Food and water citizens cannot make good ground and the current state of life in the city. Bia agus uisce ní féidir le saoránaigh talamh slán a dhéanamh díobh agus suíomh an tsaoil sa chathair mar atá.
