Resistance to the occupation of Mariupol continues, despite the city falling into Russian hands last month.
Writing on Telegram, Petro Andryushchenko, an adviser to Mariupol's Ukrainian mayor, said the city "did not accept the occupation".
He claimed two tow trucks and three other large vehicles were set on fire last week in the car park of the Russian Emergencies Ministry.
The post also detailed the fatal stabbing of a ministry employee in a crowd awaiting humanitarian aid near the city's metro.
"Retribution is near. Glory to Ukraine!," concluded the post, in a warning to Russian soldiers in the city.
The southern port city was all but destroyed by weeks of shelling and is now at risk of a major cholera outbreak, according to the UK's Ministry of Defence.
Contaminated food and water, as well as uncollected dead bodies and rubbish littering the streets, are contributing to the spread of disease, the MoD said.
