More than 1,500 new graves have been dug at a mass burial site near the southern Ukrainian city of Mariupol, according to an analysis of new satellite images carried out for the 成人论坛.聽Recent satellite images show these are new graves, dug since the area was last analysed in June.

Ukrainian officials believe that at least 25,000 civilians have died in the city, following some of the fiercest fighting in the war. They estimate that 5,000-7,000 of them died under rubble after their homes were bombed.

Mariupol, a port city close to the border with Russia, was a major strategic target for the Russians. From the start of the war it was pounded relentlessly from the air and from the ground. It fell to the Russians in May.

The 成人论坛's Hilary Andersson explains how the figure of 1,500 was confirmed, and the growing agony of those trying to find their dead or lost loved ones within these graves.
