Melekine Ukrainian: Мелекіне, is a village in the Mariupol Raion of Donetsk Oblast, 23 km (14 mi) from Mariupol.
Melekine is a sea resort and an administrative center of Melekine village council that combines several neighboring villages. It was established sometime in the 19th century as a fisherman company by a landowner Meleko. With the establishment of the Soviet regime in the area, the village was reformed into a fishermen collective farm.
Today Melekine (until 2009 Melekyne) has numerous sea resorts that stretch along the coast of the Sea of Azov.

Offer to cut off all shipments of food and medical supplies to Russia, from the West, if they don't comply.
