Russia Ukraine War: Almost 300 People Buried In "Mass Grave" In Bucha, Outside Kyiv

In Bucha, a commuter town outside Ukraine’s capital Kyiv, nearly 300 people have been buried in a mass grave, said the Mayor to the AFP after the Ukrainian Army retook control of the key town from Russia. Mayor Anatoly Fedoruk told the AFP, “We have already buried 280 people in mass graves, and the town’s street is littered with corpses.”

Fedrouk further added that “All these people were shot, killed, in the back of the head. The victims were men, and women and the dead included 14-year-olds as well.”

Many of the bodies had white bandages on them "to show that they were unarmed," he said. The town still had cars in the streets with "entire families killed: children, women, grandmothers, men. These are the consequences of the Russian occupation. The corpses were still in the streets because sappers have not worked there yet, Fedoruk said.
