It was always unclear to me how the soldiers of the "Azov" regiment could fight in a complete siege for two months?

       Today I saw an interview of one of the leading managers of the "Azovstal" plant from Mariupol. He said that the plant was built in the times of the Soviet Union, during the Cold War, and a system of underground storage facilities was built there for the plant's workers. After the annexation of Crimea, the local authorities and the management of the plant decided to renew the protective bomb shelters. Air ventilation and water supply systems were renewed. Food warehouses were also replenished to feed 10,000 people for two weeks, i.e. all the plant's worker.

     At the beginning of the encirclement, civilians with children joined the soldiers. Everyone had three meals a day. Now, at the end of the siege and complete encirclement, three meals a day were left only for the children. Soldiers and adult civilians have one meal a day only.
