(Yuliia Taradiuk – The Kyiv Independent) The National Guard’s 1st Azov Corps released footage of Ukrainian reconnaissance and strike drone systems in Mariupol, announcing their “return” to the Russian-occupied city, according to a May 8 statement on Facebook. ‘The Azov (Corps) is already patrolling its hometown of Mariupol. For now, from the air. But there’s more to come,” the statement read. Mariupol, in Donetsk Oblast, has been under Russian occupation since May 21, 2022, when Ukrainian forces withdrew from the Azovstal Steel Plant. Among those defending the city were fighters from the Azov Battalion, who later surrendered to Russian forces, with some still remaining in captivity. – ‘More to come’ — Azov Corps drones strike Russian logistics in Mariupol in new footage
