«For the Plunder». Putin handed over the steel mill in Mariupol to Kadyrov's men – WSJ.


Ramzan Kadyrov, supported by Moscow, is enriching himself through the plundering of the Ilyich steel mill in Mariupol, which previously belonged to Rinat Akhmetov. It is noted that control over the mill was obtained by people associated with Kadyrov, including his son. Trucks with rolled products are being transported from the steel plant to Russia. The plunderers managed to dismantle and transport to Russia a production line worth 220 million dollars, which was installed shortly before the war. Steel products worth many thousands of dollars are also being exported from the plant. This escalation of the situation makes Mariupol residents fear further plundering of the plant.
The video shows the destruction of the Mariupol steel mill "Azovstal", caused by Russian shelling and bombings. The occupying authority also closed a large cemetery in Old Crimea of the Mariupol urban community due to lack of space.
