Not for lack of trying. Drone video of Mariupol yesterday.[1] Some people got out in time. Some didn't. At least 100,000 are stuck with no escape route.[2] The city is surrounded and being shelled by both ground artillery and naval vessels. There's no body count yet. The siege of Leningrad (St. Petersburg today) is the closest historical parallel.

  >"Not for lack of trying" Trying does not count. Actual results do. Siege of the Leningrad had lasted 900 days with the body count of 1.5 million people. Judging by the way things going in Ukraine this whole Putin's war should be over pretty soon and not to his liking.
