Some 130 people managed to get out of a bomb shelter in a basement of the Drama Theater in Mariupol, Liudmyla Denisova, Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights, said.

"As of this hour, we know that 130 people have been taken out, but according to our data, there are more than 1,300 people who are in these basements, in this bomb shelter. We pray that all of them will be alive, but at the moment there is no information about them," Denisova said on the air of the telethon on Friday.

Rescuers continue to work on the spot.
