The evacuation of about 100,000 people trapped in Mariupol will only succeed with the help of the UN, Ukraine’s deputy prime minister has said.

Iryna Vereshchuk told BBC the UN needed to become involved in arranging humanitarian corridors, saying it was the "only organisation with the capacity and strength to prevent death" but was so far "only observing events".

United Nations Secretary General António Guterres is to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Tuesday.

Speaking before the visit was announced, Vereshchuk said "evacuation is only possible with the assistance of the UN. The UN and Guterres need to get involved and arrange corridors".
