FOOTAGE released by the Azov Battalion appear to show tanks firing down a street in Mariupol, Ukraine.

The regiment — a far-right paramilitary group absorbed into the Ukrainian National Guard — said the tanks had been used to target Russian forces in the city. Storyful has not verified these claims.

Though the Azov Battalion released this footage on various social media channels on March 22, the presence of snow on the ground indicates it may have been recorded earlier in the month. Almost all forms of communication, including internet and telephone, have been cut off in Mariupol since the start of March, and material showing fighting has been slow to emerge.
