Amnesty International said on Friday there is compelling evidence that Russian troops committed war crimes, including the extrajudicial killings of civilians, when they occupied an area outside the capital of Kyiv.

“In a rare, even historic move, Amnesty International denounced Russia’s unlawful use of force as a violation of United Nations charter and an act of aggression – a crime under international law,” Amnesty’s secretary-general Agnes Callamard told a news conference in Kyiv.

Civilians also suffered abuses such as “reckless shootings and torture” at the hands of Russian forces during their failed onslaught of Kyiv in the early stages of the invasion, the rights group said in a report.

The Amnesty report is the latest to document alleged war crimes committed by Russian forces when they occupied an area northwest of Kyiv, including the town of Bucha, where Ukrainian forces say more than 400 civilians were killed.
