Drone footage shows deserted Mariupol airport

Drone footage of Mariupol, captured on Saturday, has shown its airport to be completely deserted. The facility appears to be devoid of aircraft and looks to have been abandoned. Signs of battle, such as trenches and craters, serve as reminders of the fierce fighting that the city has seen in recent weeks. The air traffic control tower also appears to be seriously damaged.
The airport was declared to be under the control of the Donetsk People’s Republic forces on March 18.
