Kyiv Oblast police say two mass graves were found in the town of Borodyanka, northwest of the Ukrainian capital, the Associated Press reported yesterday.
Regional police chief Andriy Nebitov said that among the “civilians killed by the Russian occupiers” were two women and a teenager.
“I want to emphasize that these people are civilians. The Russian army deliberately shot civilians who did not offer any resistance and did not pose any threat,” Nebitov said, adding that some of the victims appeared to have been tortured.
All the bodies were taken to the morgues of Kyiv region for forensic examination.
