Kyiv [Ukraine], May 6 (ANI/Xinhua): Ukraine has evacuated about 500 civilians from the city of Mariupol, head of the President's Office, Andriy Yermak said on Friday.

"We carried out the next stage of a complex operation to evacuate people from Mariupol and Azovstal. I can say that we managed to take out almost 500 civilians," Yermak said on Telegram.

He thanked the United Nations (UN) for its assistance in the evacuation efforts.
