Russian Defense Ministry spokesperson Igor Konashenkov said on Sunday that  Russian special troops released and rescued Muslims imprisoned by Ukrainian Nazis in a mosque in Mariupol.

"During the offensive aimed at liberating the city of Mariupol, at the request of Turkish President R. [Tayyip] Erdogan, a special operation was carried out in the Primorsky district on April 16 to free hostages held by Ukrainian Nazis in a Turkish mosque," Konashenkov said.
