British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been urged to help free two British nationals who were captured by Russia when fighting in Mariupol.

The family of Aiden Aslin told a British TV broadcaster on Monday that they hope Johnson will help and have something “sorted out” so the 28-year-old and his fellow Briton, 48-year-old Shaun Pinner, can be returned to their families.
