Details: Reportedly, the man and woman were taken to a Mariupol city hospital.
Unconfirmed reports say that the injured couple had their limbs amputated.
At the same time, Denis Pushilin, the Russian-appointed leader of the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic, reported that the car with civilians inside allegedly hit a Ukrainian 82-mm mine which had not been removed during the two years of occupation.
Moreover, the Mariupol City Council reported that Russian soldiers crashed into a civilian car in Mariupol on the weekend. Early reports say the driver of the civilian car has died.
Quote: "Similar cases occur regularly in Mariupol. The occupiers do not follow any traffic laws. Police in turn turn a blind eye to all offences of Russian soldiers, even those resulting in the death of civilian residents."
