Russian atrocities: Reports mount of civilian executions near Kyiv | DW News

Ukrainian police say more than 900 bodies have been recovered in the area around Kyiv following the withdrawal of Russian troops. Police said most of the dead civilians had been shot, an indication that many may have been executed. The bodies were found abandoned in the streets or in temporary burials. The number of dead is double that announced by Ukrainian authorities almost two weeks ago.
As DW's Rebecca Ritters reports, gruesome news continues to come from Bucha, after Russian troops left the area.

And according to the local mayor of the small town of Makariv, Russian soldiers shot more than 130 civilians there. Large parts of the town have completely been destroyed. DW correspondent Jan-Philipp Scholz visited the town and talked with the residents about the horrible weeks during the Russian siege.
