With heavy fighting continuing across Ukraine’s east, and Moscow still struggling to seize complete control of the Mariupol steel plant, home to the city’s last holdout fighters, Ukrainian officials are warily eyeing the calendar, warning that the May 9 Russian holiday of Victory Day could bring expanded war and further destruction to the country.The port city’s Azovstal steel facility saw another day of fierce combat on Wednesday, with Russian troops attempting to storm the plant with up to 200 civilians sheltered inside, waiting for a chance to evacuate. No, this is nonsense.”While speculation about that day swirls, its importance for Russians cannot be underestimated, scholars of Russian history told The Washington Post, as the nation seeks to become an empire by waging war in a country trying to maintain its independence.Moscow continued its attacks on infrastructure across Ukraine on Wednesday, striking a railroad facility and a bridge in Dnipro, a city that straddles the Dnieper River and is one of the country’s most populous.“Russian troops continue to target the railway infrastructure,” Alexander Kamyshin, head of Ukrainian railways, said on Telegram.No workers were injured in the rocket strike, he said, but the continued attacks have kept his agency on high alert. It was not immediately clear whether this was the same strike as the one reported by the rail chief and governor.Ukraine’s minister of foreign affairs, Dmytro Kuleba, said Wednesday that there was “another barrage of Russian missiles raining down on peaceful Ukrainian cities.”“They want to break us down with their missile terrorism,” he wrote on Twitter.Dalton Bennett and Leila Barghouty contributed to this report.A total of 344 people were evacuated from within the Mariupol humanitarian corridor on Wednesday, Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said Wednesday.The International Committee of the Red Cross announced that the safe-passage operation in the Mariupol area was coordinated by the ICRC, the United Nations and “the parties to the conflict.”The evacuees included “women, children and the elderly” from Mariupol, as well as other areas in Ukraine’s southeast including Mangush, Berdyansk, Tokmak and Vasylivka, Vereshchuk said in a Telegram post. “The Mariupol humanitarian operation continues.”Vereshchuk thanked the staff of the United Nations and the International Committee of the Red Cross, as well as drivers and staff of Ukraine’s emergency services.Russia’s Defense Ministry said Wednesday that its forces would open corridors this week for civilians to evacuate from the Azovstal steel plant.On Tuesday, the first group of about 100 civilians rescued from the plant arrived in Zaporizhzhia and described the horrors of sheltering for more than a month in a bunker deep underground that was being repeatedly bombarded.Yet on Wednesday, heavy fighting continued at the plant as Ukrainian officials said Russian forces attempted to storm the complex using weaponry including tanks and bombs. The official declined to say how many of them were already employed in battle.Russian forces in Mariupol are making preparations for a parade in the shattered port city — by clearing debris from the bombed theater that had been sheltering hundreds of civilians, Ukrainian officials say.“The occupiers continue to dismantle the debris in the city center, including the Drama Theater, in preparation for the parade,” said Petro Andryushchenko, an adviser to Mariupol’s mayor.Ukraine’s defense intelligence agency said Wednesday that Russia was planning to turn Mariupol into a center of “celebrations” May 9. His Conservative Party is expected to take a big hit in local elections across the country on Thursday, in what’s seen at least partly as a referendum on Johnson.The prime minister and his staff are subject to not one, not two, but three investigations.Russian strikes in western Ukraine appear to be targeting electrical infrastructure with a goal of disabling railroads, the Pentagon assessed Wednesday, after missiles struck around the city of Lviv.“Both sides rely on rail for resupply,” and Russia appears to want to hamstring Ukraine on that front, said a senior U.S. defense official, speaking on the condition of anonymity under ground rules set by the Pentagon.
