Marines break out of encirclement in Mariupol, join Azov, Ukrainian media said.<\/strong> In Mariupol, a unit of the 36th<\/sup>naval infantry brigade named after rear admiral Belinskyi was able to break out of encirclement and join the Azov regiment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite complexity, the special operation was successful, said Ukrainian web site Prestupnosti.net quoting an unnamed officer of the brigade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe joined the Azov regiment, but I cannot give you details. A few hundred marines managed to get out, including the wounded,\u201d the officer said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mariupol has been cut off since March 1. The Russian troops created a humanitarian catastrophe in the city to exterminate civilians. Attempts to unblock Mariupol were not successful. It was difficult to resupply the military.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On April 11, the 36th<\/sup> marine brigade, part of Mariupol\u2019s defense force said that apparently that could be their last day, and that Ukraine\u2019s military command had not contacted them in the past two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commander<\/em> <\/em>in chief<\/em> of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Valeriy Zaluzhnyi reassured that the military command is in contact with Mariupol\u2019s defense forces. Details of the defense operation should not be a topic for a public discussion, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the evening of April 11, Russian forces dropped an unknown chemical substance on Mariupol. Russia deployed chemical weapons on Azovstal factory, a stronghold of Azov servicemen, Azov commander Andriy Biletskyi said.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The President and Ukraine\u2019s military command are looking for ways to help the Ukrainian troops in Mariupol, advisor to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Mykhailo Podolyak on April 12. These plans cannot be made public, he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukraine\u2019s Security Service detains Putin\u2019s crony Medvedchuk. <\/strong>Viktor Medvedchuk, Putin\u2019s crony and MP of the recently banned OPZZh party (Opposition Platform \u2013 For Life) was detained in a special operation carried out by Ukraine\u2019s Security Service, President Zelenskyi announced. \u201cUkraine\u2019s Security Service held a special operation. Well done! Details later. Glory to Ukraine!\u201d the President said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He earlier released a photo of handcuffed Medvedchuk wearing uniforms of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Ukraine\u2019s Security Service said it will take similar action on pro-Russian actors and Russia\u2019s agents in Ukraine.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukrainian and Russian women to carry a cross together during procession on Good Friday in Rome, Vatican said.<\/strong> Iryna and Albina who are to carry a cross moved to Italy two decades ago, Radio Vatican said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukrainians are angered at Vatican\u2019s attempt to \u201cmake peace\u201d between the Ukrainians and the Russians. Ukraine\u2019s diplomats appealed to the Holy See.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEmbassy of Ukraine to the Holy See understands and shares general concern in Ukraine and many other communities about the idea to bring together Ukrainian and Russian women to carry the Cross during Friday\u2019s Cross Road at the Collosseum. Now we are working on the issue trying to explain difficulties of its realization and possible consequences,\u201d Ukraine\u2019s Ambassador to the Vatican Andriy Yurash twitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His wife Diana Yurash supported the statement calling the Vatican\u2019s initiative inhumane. \u201cThat is inhumane in all senses including the use of ethnicity of women who are far from their historic fatherlands not just geographically, but also mentally,\u201d she said. Ukraine\u2019s Greek Catholic Church did not support the idea either, calling it untimely and ambiguous. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor the Greek Catholics of Ukraine, the texts and gestures of the 13th station of this Way of the Cross are incoherent and even offensive, especially in the context of the expected second, even bloodier attack of Russian troops on our cities and villages. I know that our Roman Catholic brothers share these thoughts and concerns,\u201d the head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church Major Archbishop Svyatoslav Shevchuk said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukraine in Flames #33. What sanctions against Russia are necessary for Ukrainian victory?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Russia has left North Korea, Iran, Syria and Iran behind in \u2018the most sanctioned country ever\u2019 competition. The number of sanctions Russia received since February 24 has reached 8,000, and continues to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ukraine is still the biggest sufferer of the war, not the sanctioned Russia. Sanctions have started to hurt Russia, but it\u2019s a mixed picture. Notoriously, Russia\u2019s pipeline gas revenue is still up and fetching much higher prices compared to a year ago. In January 2022, Russia earned $ 9.5 billion from the pipelines, compared to $ 3.4 billion a year earlier. The World Bank is now predicting the Russian economy will shrink by 11 percent in 2022, but Ukraine is likely to face a 45 percent contraction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the biggest consumers of Russian gas are the EU states, there is still potential to further pressure the aggressor. Notably, the energy embargo has not been fully imposed by the EU. The European Commission\u2019s most recent – sixth – round of sanctions against the Russian Federation will include restrictions on gas and oil exports and, hopefully, a much stronger cooperation to improve implementation of the already imposed restrictions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How will the upcoming sixth round of sanctions hit Russia? What further restrictions on the aggressor will help Ukraine’s victory? See in Ukraine in Flames #33.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
