May 17 (UPI) — The Ukrainian military has ended its combat mission in the war-torn key port city of Mariupol and ordered its remaining units stationed at a besieged steel plant to evacuate.
The General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces announced that military command had ended the weeks-long mission in a statement on Telegram late Monday, stating a rescue operation for an unknown number of fighters at the Azovstal steel plant was underway.

I agree. It’s a shame that Russians are treating them like mercenaries when they should be treating them like POWs.
